[QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [QB] ^ Of course familial relations are different from population relations. But if one [i]were[/i] to use DNA markers for populations, I expect the results to be the same as we have always predicted in this forum! [QUOTE]Originally posted by TheAmericanPatriot: [qb] Djehuti, there is an old saying, "stats don't lie but liars use stats.' I have been reading this board for a long time and we have had many different conversations about historical method... [/qb][/QUOTE]But we are not talking about "stats". We are speaking of both bio-anthropology as well as historical documents that verify the indigenous i.e. black African identity of the Egyptians. We have cited so many studies from the mainstream it is ridiculous to dismiss them. [QUOTE][qb]There are at least two major problem here. First, many of the posters have less than an average education in even basic history. The result is they buy into these political myths that are taught here with little ability to be critical of the conclusions reached.[/qb][/QUOTE][b]LOL[/b] How do you even know what kind of education most of the posters had?! You don't know their academic backgrounds and judging from the way they discuss studies they have at [i]least[/i] a college degree in science. Some of the veterans in here have even gone as far to contact and have discussions with the experts who authored these studies. So please don't make silly and insulting presumptions about posters in here having below average education. That ancient Egypt was a black African culture is not some "political myth" but a historic and scientific FACT. [QUOTE][qb]Second, more often than not information is used out of context because it is simply too complex for laymen to work with. If the moderators went through and deleted all of the race threads fully 95% of these people would leave. It is hard to do good history if history is not what you are interested in. [/qb][/QUOTE][b]LOL[/b] There is nothing "complex" about it! Whether it is archaeological sources documenting the ancient Egyptian populace being indigenous to the African continent; historic sources from the Egyptians themselves showing their African nativity as well as historical documents from other sources like Israelite, Assyrian, Greek and Roman describing them as blacks; studies of cranial and skeletal remains showing African affinities; epithileal studies of mummies showing black skin; or DNA evidence showing the prevalence of African lineages among Egyptians, the results are still the SAME and SIMPLY put!--- THEY WERE BLACK AFRICANS.
