[QUOTE]Originally posted by -Just Call Me Jari-: [QB] The Ironic part is that despite the Eurocentics attempts to Equate the Berbers with Blond Fair Europeans, it was Europeans(Greeks and Romans) who equated the Berbers with the African/Dark Skinned race by calling the Moors I.E Blacks. Why would White people call other White people(Who are supposed to more fair in skin and hair than themselves) Moor: [i]North African, Berber," late 14c., from O.Fr. More, from M.L. Morus, from L. Maurus "inhabitant of Mauritania" (northwest Africa, a region now corresponding to northern Algeria and Morocco), from Gk. Mauros, perhaps a native name, or else cognate with [b]mauros "black" (but this adjective only appears in late Greek and may as well be from the people's name as the reverse). Being a dark people in relation to Europeans,[/b] their name in the Middle Ages was a synonym for "Negro;" later (16c.-17c.) used indiscriminately of Muslims (Persians, Arabs, etc.) but especially those in India.[/i] The Eurocentrics lack the ability to think, they think that by Copy-N-Pasting their Eurocentic Apologizers will somehow impede the truth.. The So called LeukoEthiopians debunked.. [i]PHny, Mela and Ptolemy all refer to the Leucaethiopes, [b]but they give no description of the people thus designated.[/b] Pliny in his Lib. v. cap. 8, Hist. Natur. writes : Interiori autem ambitu Africae ad meridiem versus superque Gaetulos, inter- venientibus desertis, primi omnium Libyaegyptii, deinde Leucaethiopes habitant. Pomponius Mela, Be situ orbis, Lib. i. cap. 4, is somewhat more explicit : At super ea quae Libyco mari abluuntur, Libyes Aegypti sunt, et Leucoaethiopes, et natio frequens multiplexque Gaetuli. For Mela the Leucaethiopes appear to be between the Troglodytes and the Nile, scarcely in Western Africa. Agathemenos retires again behind those convenient intervening deserts, and [b]merely says that west of Egypt are situated among other nations[/b] the Aeu/cat^toTj-es. De geographia, Lib. ii. cap. 5[/i] [/QB][/QUOTE]
