[QUOTE]Originally posted by Calabooz: [QB] If there was no genetic connection then that would mean the ancient population was replaced. Modern Egyptians have experienced significant gene flow from the Near East, but this doesn't mean they aren't descended from ancient Egyptians. [QUOTE]Originally posted by ausar: [qb] Calabooz, I don't know about a genetic connection but I can definitely show strong cultural ties amongst the lower socio-economic groups that live in the margins of Egyptian society. Go to any slum or rural area of Cairo you will see everyday folklore which shows pharaonic ties. Unfortunately, in the future it will be harder to prove because of the extreme zeal of Islamic clerics. Jari, the folklore of poor Egyptians are also similar to modern Africans. Not just the zar ceremonies but the reverence of the dead and also the music and moulid celebrations. I plan to make a video about this in the future. Outside of modern Egypt and anthropology very few people know of these traditions. The traditions are dying fast because most people see it as pagan idolatry. [/qb][/QUOTE] [/QB][/QUOTE]
