[QUOTE]Originally posted by osirion: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by the lioness: [qb] ^^^ why would you be dumb and post this? You have been trying to say the yellow color was symbolic (and not specifying of what) and now you put up face paint. So why didn't you open with an argument that perhaps Egyptian women painted their faces yellow?? -otherwise why bother putting up these women you dumb piece of shi[i]t[/i] [IMG]http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/intersection/files/2009/05/nefertari-and-isis.jpg[/IMG] was is Isis yellow and not Nefertari? Why aren't they both the color of Nefertari jackass? [/qb][/QUOTE]I have to admit, even today we don't see many dark skinned Egyptian women in the media. But then today we don't see Black women with naturally frizzy Afros very much. Considering that this color convention changed with various dynasties, I don't see how it can be seen as being much more than a fashion. It is very common to see Egyptian women portrayed with natural African skin color such as below: [IMG]http://www.arce.org/files/event/wn/gn/rte/Tomb_of_Menna__2_women_.jpg[/IMG] Don't know enough to understand why the color convention for Women changed.
