[QUOTE]Originally posted by Just call me Jari: [QB] How contradictory you are. You dismiss the notion of Africa as a recent term never used by the Egyptians but claim the Term "Foreigners" was used by the Egyptians. The Term referred to the people south of Egypt was "Nahesi" and yes the Egyptians showed themselves to be linked with Nehesi people.

Call it what you want but the Egyptians saw themselves as Part of Africa, not Arabia, Asia, etc. but Africa and the Nile valley. [QUOTE]Originally posted by awlaadberry: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [qb] [/QUOTE]Of course the vast majority of foreigners the Egyptians encountered were fellow Africans. Just because they did not know of the concept of a continent or "Africa" does not mean it did not exist [/qb][/QUOTE]The ancient Egyptians (or the People of Kemet or the Copts) weren't ignorant people in need of outsiders to teach them the concept of the area they lived in. Give them the credit they deserve. They were intelligent people. You call the people they encountered and called foreigners "fellow Africans", but the ancient Egyptians (or the People of Kemet or the Copts) didn't call them that. They called them foreigners.
