[QUOTE]Originally posted by Antalas: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [qb] Wrong again. Data from Harris & Wente's book [i]X-ray Atlas of the Royal Mummies[/i] has been compiled and [URL=http://www.realhistoryww.com/world_history/ancient/Misc/Data/data7.htm]shows[/URL] the royal mummies display many traits typically held by "black" Africans including the mummy of Tiye.[/qb][/QUOTE]hahaha source is "realhistoryww" and after that you claim you're not afrocentric. + many north africans show ssa affinities or ssa traits especially people like upper egyptians that doesn't mean they are black or look black. [QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: And her bust painted bust shows she bears a striking resemblance to modern Beja women.[/QUOTE]That's not a painted bust but wood (yew wood) and painted depictions and statues of her didn't show any black phenotype + her haplogroup was eurasian (K) and her father's paternal haplogroup was again eurasian (G2a) That's literally her parents : [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/CLzkk8S.jpg?1[/IMG] [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/TF9LWcT.jpg?1[/IMG] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: As for Tutankhamun, there were actually at least [b]8[/b] reconstructions made in the past 30 years, with each one looking different from the other. This is because soft tissue features like nose tip and lips are largely left to conjecture and the same with skin color. Most of the reconstructions done were not double-blinded meaning the scientists knew who the skull belonged to and input their biases. However one forensic artist involved in the 2005 Nat Geo reconstruction, [URL=http://www.egyptsearch.com/forums/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=15;t=000051]Susan Anton[/URL] had this to say: [i] Thanks for your email. I actually didn't choose the term "North African Caucasoid" that is the term used by another team (there were three that worked on separate reconstructions). The French team was responsible for the reconstruction that was on the cover of National Geographic Magazine and they also used that term. Our team, myself and Michael Anderson of Yale, were the ones that did the plaster reconstruction without knowledge of whose skull we were working on. I did the biological profile (assessment of age at death, sex and ancestry), Michael made the actual reconstruction. Based on the physical characters of the skull, I concluded that this was the skull of a male older than 15 but less than 21, and likely in the 18-20 year range and of African ancestry, possibly north African. The possibly north African came mostly from the shape of the face including the narrow nose opening, that is not entirely consistent with an 'African' designation. A narrow nose is more typical of more northerly located populations because nose breadth is thought to be at least in part related to the climate in which ancestral populations lived. A narrow and tall nose is seen most frequently in Europeans. Tut's head was a bit of a conundrum, but, as you note, there is a huge range ofvariation in modern humans from any area, so for me the skull overall, including aspects of the face, spoke fairly strongly of his African origins..[/i] So his overall skull shape was African except his nose and perhaps face, but as the one who emailed her responded there are those in Africa not only North Africans but even certain populations in Sub-Sahara who share the same features but are clearly 'black'. [/QUOTE]Doesn't mean these reconstructions all had the same level of quality + the last one we have is based on two different labs and they both reached the same results so this can't simply be "conjecture" Moreover he looked like his father akhenaten : [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/1DurAGA.jpg?1[/IMG] https://www.academia.edu/45428522/FAPAB_KV_55_Akhenaton_media_release_March_8th_2021_?fbclid=IwAR3GxOX-idMZb6-6u238YDn0caD6T91XAJUTv04hze2bxE0EndWRpyNeLcE Also the fact that some horner have caucasoid features is due to their eurasian ancestry and most sub-saharans don't have such features.
