You know very well that if you are not fluent in a language you cannot fully comprehend a full page of its text. [QUOTE]Yes, any French to English dictionary.[/QUOTE]Any actual full translation of the material? There's a big difference between getting an English bible because you cannot read the French version and translating words on your own with a dictionary. [QUOTE]The context is ethnic.[/QUOTE]I know it is ethnic, but what is 'black' in reference to? Skin color? I can fully understand that the Egyptians grouped reddish-brown people such as themselves and people they depicted as jet-black into a "Black" category, while grouping lighter-skinned Asiatics and Libyans into "Reds". But when calling their nation "Kmt." was this ethnic label in reference to skin color? What then did they call the nations south of them? I will admittedly have to do more reading but as I understand it the AEs did not recognize a nation called "Nubia". That was a Roman word in reference to gold (nub) correct? I've heard the nation south of them referred to as the kingdom of Kush and its people the Kushites but isn't that a Biblical label, which means Black? [QUOTE]Yes, Champollion who deciphered the Rosseta Stone and whose Kemetic dictionary is the orignal and primary basis for modern transliteration of mdw ntr. [b]Too bad you can't address it.[/b] But I *can* repost it. I can beat you over the head with this for as long as you like. :) [/QUOTE]Yes, it's too bad I cannot fluently read French. Can you? Perhaps someone who can read French could post a full translation to all of the text in those pages for the non-French readers since apparently you cannot provide a source in English. I really do want to learn, but my inability to address your source is due to language barrier and nothing else, Rasol. [/QB][/QUOTE]
