[QUOTE]Originally posted by tropicals redacted: [QB] At a November 2014 British Museum lecture, Who were the Ancient Egyptians?, Joel Irish said that, based on the dental record, there was population continuity from the Badarian through to the Roman period, as well as homogeneity encompassing both Upper and Lower Egypt. EDIT: OK, managed to find quotes: [QUOTE] What you see then is that there is incredible similarity among all populations leading to the dynastic through pre-dynastic times [with a few?] post-dynastic thrown in. None of these are what you'd call significantly different from one another. They're all the same population. Whether they're from early, late, whether they're from Upper or Lower Egypt. There are two outliers though, trying to figure out what the heck are these guys doing and it now turns out the top one is a Greek site, Greek sample, that just happen to be in Egypt, and the bottom one is Roman. So what we've got here are some outside people, these cemeteries were from non-Egyptians, is what it looks like. [/QUOTE] [QUOTE] Dentally the ancient Egyptians show an incredible amount of internal homogeneity, between predynastic and dynastic times. They are statistically not significantly different from one another, they show tremendous similarity from south to north and through time - these are one very continuous population.[/QUOTE]----------- Punos el rey said: [QUOTE] Is there any more studies on Predynastic remains frkm Lower Egypt and how they fit in? I only saw one mention of Lower Egyptian samples on the first page. I almost got slipped up in an argument where someone posted a study saying Lower Egyptians had "less tropically adapted"(but still tropically adapted)bodies and was wanting to learn more if possible. They were still indigenous Africans too weren't they? [/QUOTE] [/QB][/QUOTE]
