[QUOTE]Originally posted by alTakruri: [QB] Creamy colored "Libyans" appear before 1000 BCE in 18th Dynasty tomb paintings. These paintings are roughly contemporaneous to Sea Peoples migrations thus whatever lightened this particular sub-population of ancient "Libyans" seemingly happened before the Sea Peoples advent. Minoan art leads me to presuppose regular back and forth contact between Libya and the Aegean. But it was further west where the ancient "Libyan" Meshwesh (whose ethnonym ends in "esh" as did the ethnonyms of select Sea Peoples) lived. Archaeology of Tunis yields evidence of trade with Tyrrhenian populations. Were women one of the items? Then there's this so-called "Beaker" culture/tradition that was supposedly south European to start with. Iirc, with the Beaker industry a more selfish and militant outlook presents itself in coastal North Africa. Maybe some lightening came onboard with the Beakers? See http://www.egyptsearch.com/forums/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=8;t=003476;p=5#000208 A discussion on Libyan's colour http://www.egyptsearch.com/forums/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=8;t=001892#000032 Abbreviated timeline and the Minoan painting http://www.egyptsearch.com/forums/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=8;t=003462#000015 http://www.egyptsearch.com/forums/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=8;t=004549;p=2#000056 Capsule ethnography & history of North Africans known to the AE's http://www.egyptsearch.com/forums/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=8;t=001040#000003 Ausar's sources on Meshwesh & Libu http://www.egyptsearch.com/forums/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=8;t=001040#000003 Population geneticist's reports oalone would have one conclude the lightening is a result of demic movements in wake of Islam. If the slave trade is what lightened coastal North Africa, that leaves us to surmise some genetic mutation as responsible for dynastic Egypt era "whites" in North Africa. [/QB][/QUOTE]
