[QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [QB] ^ Actually as recently as the Ottoman Empire were there imperial outposts in the Nubian region comprising Turks as well as other groups of the empire like Circassians etc. Maybe some of these groups did intermarry with the locals though as Ausar pointed out, rape was not uncommon as the natives were still oppressed by these imperialist regimes. This is why some Nubians in the area, particularly the Kanuzi, have light-skinned mixed looking types. [QUOTE]Originally posted by Firewall: [qb] Oh,so that's the christian period for those samples? Swenet thanks for clearing that up. I had a funny feeling that was the case. Yeah,some nubians in certain parts of lower nubia and a few in upper nubia in the later middle ages had varied admixture from outside elements. Of course not southern nubia. This gets back to what i said and troll patrol had said,it depends on what period in history and location these samples are from. The samples seem to be only from nile and not other regions of sudan and nearby countries were nubians are known to live in. Chad has a nubian population that live there for awhile most likely since the late middles ages or before but they are not in these samples. Nubian churches etc.. were found there too. [/qb][/QUOTE]Yes, let's not forget that the Coptic Church was not always confined to Egypt but spread into Nubia and rest of northern and central Sudan up to Ethiopia. Thus originally there were 3 branches of the Coptic Church-- the original Egyptian branch and then the Nubian (Sudanese) branch, and the Ethiopian branch. Today only the Egyptian and Ethiopian branches survive as the Nubian branch became extinguished by Islamic movements. [/QB][/QUOTE]
