[QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by castrated: [qb] Blacks were slaves in ancient greece, nothing more. There were though probably quite a lot of them. Greece had a high population of slaves. [/qb][/QUOTE][b]LOL[/b] liar, liar, panties on fire! Greece did have a high population of slaves but these were [i]indigenous[/i] NOT foreign. Peoples like the Helots of the Peloponnese which were popularly enslaved by the Spartan state were descendants of indigenous peoples conquered by Greek speaking peoples. In fact the Greeks were had the unusual habit of enslaving members of their own kind which is documented in their own writings that every time a Greek city-state is conquered by another Greek city-state, the inhabitants would be enslaved. Blacks at least by Classical times were a rare sight only seen as traders in sea ports and perhaps a [i]few[/i] slaves. If black slaves were so common then why was their appearance spoken of as so rare. Even YOUR dumbass acknowledged this in another thread! [QUOTE]castrated posted elswhere: [qb] Even as late as Pliny the Elder's day, the ancient greeks were still amazed by the dark skin of the african ethiopian. They couldn't believe it was natural,... quis enim Aethiopas antequam cerneret credidit?’’ ‘‘for who believed in the Ethiopians before seeing them’’ - Natural History, vii. 6 [/qb][/QUOTE][b]LOL[/b] Self-contradiction seems to be the order with you! I don't know why on [i]this[/i] thread you all of a sudden make blacks common or significant presence in Greece (as slaves of course). Could this be your explanation for the significant percentage of African E male lineages in Greece? Unfortunately for you, these lineages are dated to the neolithic! [b]LOL[/b] [/QB][/QUOTE]
