[QUOTE]Originally posted by the lioness,: [QB] [IMG]http://www.ephotobay.com/image/picture-22-2.png[/IMG] Men wearing Nubian clothing but marked with glyphs normally associated with Egyptians, Temple of Ramses, Book of Gates scene [QUOTE]Originally posted by Ish Gebor: [QB] "To say that Egyptians males wore such clothes would be to ignore all other Egyptian art" LOL Many other cultural affinities can be given. [IMG]http://euler.slu.edu/~bart/egyptimage/amenherkhepshef.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]^^ that is a bit similar ^^ However we can see the difference here >> [URL=http://www.ephotobay.com/share/nubian-faience-tile-temple-of-ramses-iii.html] [IMG]http://www.ephotobay.com/image/nubian-faience-tile-temple-of-ramses-iii.png[/IMG][/URL] Sometimes the Egyptians depict a Pharaoh as pitch black when they are personifying a Pharaoh personifying Osiris. However that is symbolic because when you look at other paintings of them the pharaoh is depicted as brown. However here we are looking at a tile of a Kushite enemy. Notably he is not personifying Osiris yet is depicted pitch black has hoop earrings red dyed hair (or hat) collar has large dot pattern And if you compare it to the photo at top of the painting in Ramses III, it's a very close match _______________________________ So the labeling of the figures at top from Ramses III's temple is likely an error by the Egyptian artisans. My point is don't select a very unique image/text situation that could easily be an error to form a generalization. If you want to see if in the Egyptian art if the Egyptians looked like Nubians then compare more typical art If you don't want to to an honest assessment looking at a lot of art and just want to do propaganda then select only those pictures which support your agenda and you will be able to find some overlap. Obviously that would be expected since Egypt and Nubia were neighbors This thread is specifically about the Book of Gates in the Temple of Ramses III not about general cultural affinities between Egypt and Nubia which exist [/QB][/QUOTE]
