[QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by A Simpleton: [qb] Perhaps some Egyptian men did use red henna on all exposed areas as a sunblocker. Maybe that's why they're most often depicted as being reddish in color. I'm with Lioness when she says that Egypt was multi-racial with people from all around. In that case henna would have been ideal for people with lighter skin especially if they spent alot of time in the sun. [/qb][/QUOTE][b]LMAOH[/b] So now you're changing you're tune of Egypt being a white society to a "multiracial" one. You just can't accept it was of one culture and one culture only--AFRICAN. You're theory is also still ludicrous. It would take a LOT of henna to cover the body. Why not just accept the fact that the Egyptians didn't need sunscreen because they are BLACK. The reddish brown or rather mahogany and even chocolate colors painted on men are the actual skin complexions! [QUOTE]Originally posted by Brada-Anansi: [qb] So Simple we are making progress now you go from Kemet being White to Kemet being Multi..and you know what?? you may just be right about Kemities using henna all over their bodies certaintly other East African Cattle keeping cultures did just that which in fact they were, just that we can't say for sure as DJ pointed out earlier.

Some Africans apply ochre on their bodies for aesthetic purposes like makeup. Obviously they didn't use it for sunscreen since their natural black skins are enough sunscreen. [/QB][/QUOTE]
