[QUOTE]Originally posted by Firewall: [QB] Kushites speakers afro-asian? I was wondering if anyone read this from nubian wikipedia from history of the nubians. It says the kushites were afro-asiatic speakers and afro-asians. That's not true by the way. From Wikipedia [QUOTE] Shabti figurine of the Kushite King Senkamanisken ca. 643-623 BC (left), marble portrait of a Nubia denizen ca. 120-100 BC (right). The commemorative stela of the Axumite King Ezana indicates that two distinct population groups inhabited ancient Nubia: the Afroasiatic-speaking Kasu (Kushites) who were related to the neighbouring ancient Egyptians, and a Sudanic-speaking population that was instead related to Nilotes. [/QUOTE]and [QUOTE] Historiolinguistic analysis indicates that the early inhabitants of the Nubia region, during the C-Group and Kerma cultures, were speakers of languages belonging to the Berber and Cushitic branches of the Afroasiatic family. They were succeeded by the first Nubian language speakers, whose tongues belonged to the separate Nilo-Saharan phylum.Accordingly, a 4th-century victory stela belonging to King Ezana of the Kingdom of Aksum contains inscriptions describing two distinct population groups dwelling in ancient Nubia: a "red" Kasu population, who are believed to have been Cushitic speakers related to the neighbouring ancient Egyptians, and a "black" Sudanic-speaking population that was instead related to Nilotes. The existence of two such distinct population groups in Nubia has also been confirmed through genetic analysis (see genetics). [/QUOTE] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nubians The above was posted in nubians link.It was never there before. It has been deleted recently but it may come back so look out for the false info above. Clearly kushites were nilo-saharan,not afro-asian. Someone sneek in afro-asiatic part. Who ever wrote that above got the facts wrong. [/QB][/QUOTE]
