[QUOTE]Originally posted by alTakruri: [QB] Prime example of Melanophobe's all white Maurs.

Yes, for sure [IMG]http://books.google.com/books?id=e3h0AAAAIAAJ&pg=PA35&img=1&zoom=3&hl=en&sig=ACfU3U1UEdF29XHCqdSjAkvpcPtVXHUWxw&ci=162%2C776%2C191%2C31&edge=0[/IMG] refers to a white/light skinned person. Don't believe it? Substitute other white/light ethnies for Moor. Hispaniard so black Greek so black Roman so black But wait Roman so black works. Then Juvenal's satire fails, no? Juvenal's Roman reading audience obviously thought Moors were white/light. Yes! But if honest examination is what you want broach a thread on Greco-Latin quotes concerning Maurs and other contemporaneous North Africans. Post them one by one with complete standard citation with no repeats and we'll see which colour is mostly associated with them. I gaurantee your blackless North Africa lie will be further exposed.
