[/QUOTE]Not that I think this "he said, she said" sort of anecdotal stuff is admissible in serious discussions on ancient population affinity (although it is interesting from a subjective point of view), but what's ironic is that the Bible and other ancient texts in the wider region apply analogous terms to [b]all[/b] the people you've claimed weren't thought of as having a 'burnt' appearance, INCLUDING North Indians. Aint that a trip? You should know better, with your biblical background. [/qb][/QUOTE]Kushites are described as black, not Egyptians. I think the Biblical and Rabbinical literature supports the distinction I am making. Midrash Yalkut Shim'oni. Noah Sec. 58 for example confines black skin (through the curse of Ham) to Kush, not the other descendants of Ham that represent North Africa. I am surprised how people on this forum are in denial about all this, when it is a simply an observable reality North Africans are lighter skinned than Sub-Saharan Africans. [/QB][/QUOTE]
