[QUOTE]Originally posted by kenndo: [QB] One more thing here is some info on the what has happen in sudan. There seems to be two types of black arabs in the sudan.all are really arabized nubians but vary in degree in arabization. One group see themselves only has arabs,the other see themselves has arab first but will admit a nubian background too i guess,so these world be arab-nubians but they has a whole will see themselves arab first,that's why they are still called arabs.I think a few in the arab nubian group do see themselves nubian again first or only nubian but their numbers are not large enough yet to create another group of arabized nubians that call themselves nubians first. Maybe in the future thier numbers will increase to do so,but they would have to speak up and change their profile in sudan so the world would know and it will show up in the future census. There are other arabized nubians in sudan and egypt,but the difference is that the ones in sudan will see themselves has nubian first and alot of them still have the nubian culture and language. The arabized nubians in egypt are nubian but only nubian in political-territorial rather than an ethnic-linguistic sense.so they are arab nubians but are considered nubians first,well at least now they do. Got the info from a old book and it's abit outdated but gives good insight on some nubian groups, but i guess this deals with this group of nubians in both egypt and sudan quote- The dongolaw nubians are nubian but only in speech today,in all other respects they are as thoroughly arabized as thier cousins,the shaiqiya and jaaliyin and they generally deny a nubian identity and history. __________________________________________________ Now i do not know in recent times if most or all dongolaw nubians change thier views or they got back more of their nubian culture,but this is info that i got from a older source.I have to read more update studies about them.
