[QUOTE]Originally posted by Miguel Antunes: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Mystery Solver: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Miguel Antunes: Since black and African can mean anything. They are very subjective terms. Scientifically there's no such thing as "black african". Does it make sense to refer to Romans, Greeks, Celts as "White Europeans"?[/QUOTE]Do you think that the Egyptians would have used the "black" designation "scientifically", or literally? If not, then where's the beef? Ps - As for the term "African", they would have been only aware of the extent of the landmass to a certain extent. They referred to themselves as "Kmtyw"; what do you understand by this term? [/qb][/QUOTE]Well, since their skin wasn't literaly black for the most part, based on the representations they left of themselves, I would assume it had other non-literal meaning. But obviously, I have no idea. What do I understand by Kmtyw? Nothing. I don't understand Ancient Egyptian unfortunately. Does it means the Black People or something? @Rasol: I don't know. I never encountered such ocurence, of AE labeling other Africans "Kemet". But obviously I am very unknowing when it comes to Egyptology. No one answered my question though, even you, prefer to focus on irrelevancies such as the phrasing of my setences. [/QB][/QUOTE]
