[QUOTE]Originally posted by Brada-Anansi: [QB] Lioness [QUOTE] Juba II Numidian king of Mauretania 52/50 BC – AD 23 [IMG]http://www.lessing-photo.com/p2/100406/10040646.jpg[/IMG] hair not wooly The region had also been influenced by the Phoenicians After the Vandals, Greeks and Romans and finally the Arabs you cannot say that the North African Muslims who conquered Spain in the 8th c., called Moors were the Numidians even though the Numidians sometimes get called by writers "Moors" We are talking about when Europeans spelled the word Moor or Moros, using the letter "o" It is a loosely applied the people themselves never called themselves. And the way it was used in places like Germany was far from meaning even Almoravid descendants of North Africa. At that time, in the European medieval period they applied the term to any dark skinned African regardless of if they wer form North Africa or another place in Africa [/QUOTE][IMG]http://www.beazley.ox.ac.uk/Gems/Scarabs/Images/Robs%20Images%2001/24.15m.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://www.beazley.ox.ac.uk/Gems/Scarabs/Images/Robs%20Images%2001/24.02m.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://www.beazley.ox.ac.uk/Gems/Scarabs/Images/Robs%20Images%2008/36.20m.jpg[/IMG] Hair wooly,and again [b]Juvenal, Satire VI, lines 596 – 600 “One of them, with wooly hair, like a Moor, seems to be the son of Santra, the cook. The second, with a flat nose and thick lips, is the image of Pannicus, the wrestler . . . of the two daughters, one is black . . . and belongs to Crotus, the flute player.”[/b] Did all coastal Africans have wooly hair??? servey sayz No! did they have enough wooly haired folks among them to be sterotyped as such..yees And the rules of ethomology applies,in the same way that Ethiop/Nigritae/Niger/Nigerian/Negro applies.
