[QUOTE]Originally posted by ausar: [QB] Horemheb,most dark skinned Upper Egyptians have different cranimetric traits than people in India. Saying Anwar Sadat would be considered caucasoid is foolish considering his mother was a black Sudanese woman. He had kinky hair which is not a trait you will find on caucasoids. Eurocentrics have bent and twisted the caucasoid label to include everything from Aboriginee,Papua new Guineans,Hottentots[Yes at one time they were called Mediterranean],Somalis,Eastern Africans, early Kenyans,Inuit[Yes I am not making this up]. What exactly defines a caucasian? We know Negriod people have certain features such as protagnism which is apparent in Egyptians[Yes,even the lighter Lower Egyptians sometimes have it],but it's non conclusive to prove ancesty. See the following Forensic evidence on Upper Egyptians: "While the Upper Nile Egyptians show phenotypic features that occur in higher frequencies in the Sudan and southward into East Africa (namely, facial prognathism, chamaerrhiny, and paedomorphic cranial architecture with specific modifications of the nasal aperature), these so-called Negroid features are not universal in the region of Thebes, Karnak, and Luxor." (Kennedy, Kenneth A.R., T. Plummer, J. Chinment, "Identification of the Eminent Dead: Pepi, A Scribe of Egypt," In Katherine J. Reichs (ed.), _Forensic Osteology_, 1986. ) [This message has been edited by ausar (edited 20 August 2004).] [/QB][/QUOTE]
