[QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [QB] [QUOTE][qb] The modern Copts have been genetically isolated for 1400 years, due to the religious apartheid that prevailed in Islamic Egypt. For all that time Copts could only intermarry with other Egyptian Christians if they wished their children to be Christians. Despite this fact, the Copts do not have a homogenous look. Do Copts look just like ancient Egyptians? Absolutely! EgyptianG, Meriam George, Morris Sadek and the Patriarch of Alexandria. [URL=http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/222/coptsfour.jpg/] [IMG]http://img222.imageshack.us/img222/1808/coptsfour.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Uploaded with [URL=http://imageshack.us]ImageShack.us[/URL] Although not homogenous, some general points hold true. The darkest Copt looks sufficiently different from a black African to make the Afrocentrists claims on Egypt seem nonsensical, even if they could not be called white either. Copts don't tend to have fleshy lips, wide, high-arched nostrils, flat nasal bridges or projecting lower-faces, which are all classic features of black African populations. Their noses tend to be bulbous, rather than broad. They tend to have straight, wavy or curly hair, but not frizzy. They may have some Nilotic ancestry (as all human beings apparently do) but negroid traces in them are slight at best. [/qb][/QUOTE]Copts are not an ethnic group but a RELIGIOUS DENOMINATION. You are obviously ignorant of the fact that many Copts especially in the Egyptian Delta are of GREEK ancestry. This is why the Alexandrian Church father above looks no different from a Greek Orthodox one! You also cling to stereotypes of "true negro" while ignoring the diversity of indigenous Africans. There are many blacks in Sub-Sahara who do not have fleshy lips, wide, high-arched nostrils, flat nasal bridges or projecting lower-faces and as such were once classified as "Hamitic caucasoids" you moron! [QUOTE][qb] As for Menes/Narmer the Palette image is more reliably identified as an image of the first pharaoh, and his features there are pronouncedly more like those of the Copts pictured above than like black Africans, even allowing for stylization and charicature. In fact Narmer's profile is closer to that of Louis IX of France than like the black African depicted in a new-kingdom Egyptian image.

[IMG]http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lje443RFIc1qfkiyeo1_400.jpg[/IMG] :rolleyes: [QUOTE][qb] In better light and not distorted, the Menes/Narmer head looks like this: [URL=http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/195/menes.jpg/] [IMG]http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/261/menes.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Does it really look so different from the modern Copts? [/qb][/QUOTE]Does it really look like a "caucasian" to you?? What about this statue of Amenhotep III?? [IMG]http://www.histoire-fr.com/images/amenhotep_III_tete1_british_museum.gif[/IMG] The same in color. [IMG]http://www.osirisnet.net/tombes/pharaons/amenhotep3/photo/amenhotep3_head_02.jpg[/IMG] You are just as retarded as Dienekes' Parokeet. [/QB][/QUOTE]
