[QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [QB] ^ For someone who claims to be a linguist, you ask such elementary questions, but considering your denial of Berber as an African language and your claim of Dravidian as one.. nevermind :rolleyes: Moving back to the topic of this thread... [QUOTE]Originally posted by alTakruri: [QB] Great find DougM! I hail your image search skills. And following hard upon Rasol's comment, with their facial features and locks of hair, these guys almost look like they could've walked right off the wall of the TMHHW section of Seti I's tomb vignette 30 of BG 4:5.

Although I seriously do not think the 'white' Tamahou portrayed on tomb paintings was symbolic. Considering that symbolic depictions usually have figures painted in stark or blank white, whereas the Tamhou are all portrayed as having a pale moreso European 'white' appearance, with brownish hair and blue eyes. I seriously think the Tamhou were a peoples of European extraction who totally adopted the culture and styles of the indigenous black inhabitants. [/QB][/QUOTE]
