[QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [QB] ^ Not to discount the possibility of whites in the Sahara, I do think the stark white figures are truly symbolic as opposed to realistic. They very likely represent spirits particularly of the deceased. I mean first off, Europeans are pale but they are not [i]that[/i] white. Second, I have seen one painting Tasili painting showing a hunter drawing his bow against a bull in one scene and in the next scene he stands next to a stark-white bull perhaps representing its spirit after death. I have even seen a one scene showing people in their regular dark brown complexions except one who lying down. Thirdly, there are Africans today who paint themselves white as a ritual act of portraying dead ancestors or to perform zar. [/QB][/QUOTE]
