[QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Masonic Rebel: [qb] Cleopatra was a "beautiful black woman" The Phoencians were Black According to the bible Qu'ran and Torah.[/qb][/QUOTE]What passage was this? Last time I checked Phoenicians were a Semitic speaking groups related to Syrians. Canaanites are a different matter but there is no doubt that Phoenicians had some connection with them. [QUOTE][qb]This is why some believe Cleopatra was Black.[/qb][/QUOTE]How so? What do Phoenicians have to do with Cleopatra who is a descendant of one of Alexander's generals Ptolemy. [QUOTE][qb]I have the belief that Cleopatra was mix heritage, so there is a chance she was a person of color.[/qb[/QUOTE]As I said, there is little to no chance of Cleopatra having mixed heritage. The Ptolemies never allowed foreign ancestry into their family as did many Greek/Macedonian elites. Heck, they did not even allow native Egyptians into the city of Alexandria unless they were servants! [IMG]http://www.africawithin.com/images/cleopatra1.gif[/IMG] She could have look a little like this. [IMG]http://hometown.aol.com/amznroses/images/keisha.jpg[/IMG][/qb][/quote] Actually, in my opinion Ashanti looks a lot more like Hatshepsut and considering Cleopatra's ancestry such a look is doubtful. [QUOTE][qb]The debate rages on [/qb][/QUOTE]there is really no debate about it. :rolleyes: [/QB][/QUOTE]
