[QUOTE]Originally posted by Morpheus: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Ceasar: Morpheus and Truthcentric I believe that the Hyskos could not have had a significant impact on the gene pool due to the fact that they only controlled the northern area of Egypt. It was only a hundred years and I have not seen anything saying that they mixed extensively with them. I don' think there was any significant cranial change after the Hyskos that could not be called typically Egyptian. ( I have not seen any study that says so) I think that the cranial changed happened during the time with all the other invasions that happened during the late period, which was about during the very end of Egypt. I think its safe the say that Egypt overwhelming remained a black African civilization until its fall.[/QUOTE]This is what I believe as well. I mentioned the Hyksos because they were the first notable foreign people to occupy Egypt. They likely brought some Asiatics in but they were also expelled from the region. I think Egypt remained predominately Black until after the New Kingdom period when it fell into decline and was conquered by a series of invaders. By the Roman period it is clear that the demographic of Northern Egypt had changed considerably. Even more immigrants came to Egypt during the Islamic period from the Arab conquest during the 600s A.D. to the present. [/QB][/QUOTE]
