[QUOTE]Originally posted by supercar: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by neo*geo: [b] If khemet meant black people why didn't they apply the term to other parts of Africa where blacks were known to exist? Why did they use different names for the Nubians(Nehesy)? I'm not trying to mess with you, I have just seen few places in Africa where people used skin color to identify themselves until those names were given to them by Arabs(Sudan) or Europeans. The Western European social rules for race which are still rampant in the US today didn't exist 5000 years ago. They had different standards for race and from their own images it seems they saw themselves as different from Asiatics, Indo-Europeans, [i]and[/i] other Africans. And by "different" I mean unique. [This message has been edited by neo*geo (edited 25 June 2004).][/b][/QUOTE] Neo, I hope there is a typo in this comment, because Sudanese are by no means Arabs. They speak Arabic, but they are not Arabs. [/QB][/QUOTE]
