[QUOTE]Originally posted by Masreyya: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by ausar: [qb]...please remember that many nomadic Arab tribes imported into Egypt during both the Umayyad and Fatimid period assimilated with many of the fellaheen in the Delta and Middle Egypt. Some nomadic Imazghen[Berber] tribes from Morocco and the surrounding deserts also assimilated with fellaheen populations. [/qb][/QUOTE]Ausar, you and I have been through this one before along with the anthropological and genetic evidence to date. I have seen no indication that the assimilation of such people within the local population has effected any significant changes. Furthermore, I find it curious that the same population interactions and more have regularly taken place in Nubia and the Horn, for example, yet the people still look overwhelmingly like Africans from that part of Africa. But when it comes to Egyptians some want to explain the fact that they don't look "black enough" to be African by whatever means possible, however illogical. Actually now that I think of it, East Africans do go through this process also from what I've been told, but they seem to be "dark enough" so perhaps it doesn't happen as often! [/QB][/QUOTE]
