[QUOTE]Originally posted by Truthcentric: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by .Charlie Bass.: [qb]If you want my take I think AEs were just like populations you see in modern day Sudan with a mix of broad trend and elongated types and everything in between and that the Lower Egyptian type was more similar in appearance to people like Siwa and Tuaregs. [/qb][/QUOTE]For my part, I wager that the average ancient Egyptian would have resembled modern North Sudanese more than anyone else living today. North Sudan technically is in the Eastern Sahara after all. It wouldn't be a perfect match due to Arab and other migrations into the region in the last 3,000 years, but then a perfect modern-day match for any ancient population is going to be difficult to come by. Does anyone know if there is physical continuity between modern North Sudanese and earlier Nubians (whom we all know overlapped with Egyptians in phenotype to the point of barely being distinguishable)? I think Irish has mentioned continuity between Neolithic to Christian-era Nubians in one of his studies from 2005 ([URL=http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ajpa.20109/abstract]here[/URL]).
