[QUOTE]Originally posted by Wally: [QB] Ancient Egyptian ethnographic "mural of the races" found in the tomb of Rameses III - Monuments from Egypt and Ethiopia by Karl Richard Lepsius (German: "Denkmaler aus Agypten und Athiopian"). French Egyptologist Champollion found similar murals in other royal tombs.

We also have "romé na romé" or "Men above men (mankind)." This ideology allows us to understand that there are actually only three races represented here; Black, White, and Semitic since the Egyptians considered themselves in a class of their own, while still showing that they belonged to the Black racial group.
