[QUOTE]Originally posted by neo*geo: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Horemheb: [b]Don't think Dr Hawass agrees with your negroid-AE theory. What some are trying to do here is make a case and then find things to back it up with. Nubians...yes, the great northeastern African culture.[/b][/QUOTE] The ancient Egyptians themselves through their artwork and fashions show that they had a close affinity with Saharan and sub-Saharan Africans culturally and physically to varying degrees. From the work of authors like Herodotus and even the Holy Bible, we see that other cultures also percieved a close affinity between Egyptians and other African peoples, mainly their neighbors to the South, Nubians. I've been trying to avoid these kinds of threads but I think anyone who looks at ancient Egyptian artwork objectively can see these affinties as clear as the writing on the temple walls. I'm not sure why Hawass downplays this relationship but he definately isn't being unbiased. Conceding that ancient Egypt was an African culture doesn't mean you must concede that all ancient Egyptians were black Africans. [/QB][/QUOTE]
