[QUOTE]Originally posted by Ase: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Baalberith: [qb] Ase, I just want to know what makes you so certain that there were a difference in physical appearance between Ancient Upper Egyptians and Lower Egyptians, same way it is today? Given my information on the 2017 analysis of Abusir burial site, it seems that they only selected three mummified remains from the burial site. [/qb][/QUOTE][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/8VqkFsY.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://i.snag.gy/6ZLY7t.jpg[/IMG] [QUOTE]Also, you state that Lower Egypt shows cultural signs with the Levant, historically this seems to be the case, as the Nile Valley itself heavily influenced the Levant, so the fact that the Levant would have influenced the Egyptians especially those in the North, not just culturally but genetically should not be surprising. [/QUOTE]Predynastic northern Egypt had elements of Levantite culture long before southern Egyptians expanded north to spread their culture into northern Egypt let along the Levant. [QUOTE] But what I really fail to understand is how did this make them racially distinct from their Southern counterparts? I thought that the Asian backflows wouldn't even effect Eastern Africans racially, especially during the Mesolithic and Neolithic. [/QUOTE]Northern Egyptians were already likely mixed during the predynastic, and they descended from a population that was smaller in number towards the Delta. Smaller populations mean fewer people need to mix to impact the entire population. "Recent craniometric studies continue to note morphological differences between northern and southern Egyptian samples. Hillson (1978) referred to this as two distinct trends within his data set: 1. a northern and lower Egyptian tendency 2. a southern Egyptian and southern African trend. In his work, the Upper Egyptians overlapped with southern African populations. Billy (1977) noted, from Penrose’s C analyses, that the homogeneity of her Lower Egypt series contrasted with greater dispersion in Upper Egypt with a constant morphological type being conserved through Dynastic times in the north. Keita (1990, 1992), through the use of discriminant function analysis (DFA), noted the overlap of southern Egyptians and some southern African series." Sonia R.
