[QUOTE]Originally posted by the lioness: [QB] In my honest opinion: [QUOTE]Originally posted by Siptah: Khafre's profile: [IMG]http://img99.imageshack.us/img99/1908/khafrasidimage.png[/IMG] [/QUOTE][IMG]http://img412.imageshack.us/img412/8061/2000247900012.jpg[/IMG] The above pictures are not a profile view. A profile view is a side view and in a side yiew you can most clearly see the shape of a nose. In the above Khafra looks possibly Negroid. I'm not going to use the term black or brown because the statue is unpainted. All of you should be aware you have been caught in a trap. You all are discussing features here on an unpainted statue. So either the term "black" is a new word for Negroid which includes features or it is not. But it's too late for you to use the color only definition at this point. And you assume that features must mean something. Therefore you are talking about race. Ok I'll play this game. _________________________________________________ [QUOTE]Originally posted by alTakruri: Khafra: has a flat nose[/QUOTE]alTakruri was out to lunch with this comment talking about the below profile view. Khafra's nose is no more flat than the earth. In my opinion his nose is not an African nose. Find a tribe in Africa that has this type of nose. For instance it is unlike Ethiopian noses that hook down somewhat as similar to some Semites. In addition Ethiopians who this type of nose have an elongated type oval shaped head which narrows in the lower half of the head. Khafra does not have that elongated type of head. The scale of his nose is also medium large in proportion to his face unlike the unusual green shirt man picture that someone is likely to post. Green shirt man's nose is small in proportion to his head, it's not a match. Khafra's jaw and mouth are somewhat prognostic. This is a Negroid feature. I have this. His bottom lip also extends widely in relation to his lower lip, another Negroid feature. (although there are exceptions). Lioness conclusion: this statue of Khafra has both Negroid and Caucasoid features, therefore he is either intermediary between the two so called races or of mixed race. Sorry he's not racially pure.

He has a medium large nose with very small nostrils. Some "blacks" have larger non-"flat" noses, but usually not with such small nostrils. Most Caucasians have this. His jaw is not prognostic. His lips are small. Based on what everybody is doing here, analyzing features, his features are most typically Caucasian. The relief is similar to the other restored statue but appears to be a younger rendition. If you don't like these results than you should never discuss features on an unpainted statue. the lioness has spoken [/QB][/QUOTE]
