[QUOTE]Originally posted by zarahan- aka Enrique Cardova: [QB] [i]"Thus, the colorations used for skin tones in the art must have been schematic [or symbolic] rather than realistic; the clear gender distinction encoded in that scheme may have been based on elite ideals relating to male and female roles,in which women's responsibilities kept them indoors, so that they spent less time in the sun than men. Nevertheless, the significance of the two colors may be even deeper, making some as yet unknown but fundamental difference between men and women in Egyptian worldview..[/i] --- 'Color Symbolism' by Gay Robins, The Ancient Gods Speak: A Guide to Egyptian Religion.
