[QUOTE]Originally posted by Habsburg: [QB] One thing about the ancient Egyptians is that you can discuss them forever and not come to an agreement. For me the Ancient Egyptians are a fairly simple matter. They are 'proper black people' however that is interpreted, and the closest people them are the nomadic tribes of Northern Kenya and Uganda. They are the original AE stock, not matter how much they don't look it. There can be wide variations in appearance even within very closely related tribes, and a group can exhibit certain particular traits to an extent that they are considered a different people. Proof of AE's racial make up can be seen clearly in the Sphinx, which happens to be female anyway, and just because the mummies excavated look closer to Somalis and some the tribes out there, really doesn't mean a thing. The traits are very visible in modern Egyptian women. The problem with images from Africa is that the media prefers to display 'photogenic faces' that conform more to Western ideals of beauty. There is something else you should focus on as a line of thought or enquiry. When Louis XIV's body was exhumed the body was ebony all over and in remarkably good condition. Note that point. It had not suffered any notable deterioration, and one text described the skin as shiny. Consider the corollary. If the body was black and in good condition, then isn't it rationale to assume that it must have been black before it was entombed? If the same body was found in Africa, in the same condition, wouldn't it be rationale to assume that it was that of a black man, then why shouldn't the same apply in Europe? Here comes the rub. The bodies were thrown in a pit and destroyed with quick lime, destroying any possible knowledge of the appearance of the great kings of the ancien regime. The churches were raided apparently to obtain lead to manufacturer bullets for the revolution. What is interesting about the texts is that there is no sign that any of the witnesses at the scene where shocked, surprised, or alarmed that Louis's body was black and well preserved. Does that seem normal for a people who today are expected to believe that one of their greatest kings was white or most sallow(as we believe today)? If the people at the scene felt that the fact that his body had turned black all over was a sign from God about his evil nature or whatever they didn't mention it. Don't forget that he is believed to be the father of the Black Nun of Moret, a double first cousin to his wife (they shared the same four grandparents), and a first cousin to Charles II who was described as the Black Boy. What does that tell you about the images of the royals we see today? They are probably even more bogus than we could imagine. And one more thing. During the revolution statues of the Black Madonna were destroyed with the chant "Death to the Egyptian". Why the Egyptian? Who were the Egyptians supposed to be? Have you also noticed that hardly any royal females are portrayed as dark-skinned or black, in spite of the males that happen to be? [/QB][/QUOTE]
