[QUOTE]Originally posted by alTakruri: [QB] Much African art is done not in slavish imitation of nature, or to be like a photograph executed as a painting or a sculpture. The African art is deliberately [i]stylistic[/i] more so than symbolic. [QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [qb] ... there are so many things unrealistic about some of the rock paintings including the dark images in terms of head and body shapes, that one could say all of the images are in one way or another symbolic. [/qb][/QUOTE]We've visited this notion [URL=http://www.egyptsearch.com/forums/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=8;t=003266#000047]before[/URL] and showed TMHHW [URL=http://www.egyptsearch.com/forums/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=8;t=001040#000003]debut[/URL] in documents dated to the 6th dynasty left by [URL=http://www.egyptsearch.com/forums/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=8;t=003345#000003]Harkhuf[/URL]. [QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [qb] All the evidence shows that Tamahu appear only in the later periods of dynastic history. [/qb][/QUOTE]Tjemehu lived just west of the Nile. The Kabyle live in Algeria. You tell me what the relationship is. At best these modern extreme coastal types, being iMazighen, are descendents of Meshwesh the farthest west people known to the AEs (see the second link for more) who even in that remote time already were well in touch with the near whites of the the Mediterranean isles and the north Mediterranean shore. My best guess is that Tjemehu descendents are mainly [URL=http://www.egyptsearch.com/forums/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=8;t=004705#000004]still in Libya[/URL]. [QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [qb] Yes, but we know that North Africans especially those in the Mediterranean litoral carry maternal lineages from Southwest Europe and this likely explains the 'creamy' or white appearances of some Berber today like the Kabyle and the Rif. Is it not possible that the Tamahu are related to these folks?? [/qb][/QUOTE] [/QB][/QUOTE]
