[QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by dana marniche: [qb] [IMG]http://i50.tinypic.com/2iqhgr5.jpg[/IMG] Paint faded from Ramses with "Libyans"[/qb][/QUOTE]Actually, each of the three enemies that Ramses has in his grasp represents a different people. The darkest one on the left being Kushite, the one in the middle being Asiatic, and the one on the right presumably Libyan. Many Eurocentrics love to use this picture as proof that Ramses and the Egyptians weren't black because he seemingly has the same color as the Asiatic, but upon closer inspection one can find traces of darker brown paint especially around his arm and face. [IMG]http://i48.tinypic.com/rtjpfr.jpg[/IMG] The enemy on the right is the only one out of the three whose face is full frontal. If only someone could get a better zoom in look. [QUOTE][qb] [IMG]http://i50.tinypic.com/2lcoi78.jpg[/IMG] Another Lebou rendition photo with faded paint[/qb][/QUOTE]Yes, I can see especially on the faces traces of dark brown paint just like that found on Ramses. Again, the faces and hair remind me of not only the Tuareg but other modern Saharan people like the man in the photo below that Takruri first posted. [IMG]http://img263.imageshack.us/img263/8172/unmaureoh1.jpg[/IMG] The blue colored clothing of the Lebou also remind me of the Tuareg. In fact I remember Wally suggesting that either the Egyptian word Tehenu or Lebou meant something like 'bright' or 'dazzling' in a way like the blue stone lapis-lazuli. [QUOTE][qb] [IMG]http://i45.tinypic.com/2diixhj.jpg[/IMG] Notice the brown paint faded from this "Libyan's" back leg[/qb][/QUOTE]Yes, and I also notice the cross bandouliers he wears on his chest like earlier Tehenu such as these reproduced engravings of Tehenu fist posted by Cotonou.
