[QUOTE]Originally posted by sudaniya: [QB] Hematite (also called red ochre) has been used by the people of Sahara, Sahel and the Nile Valley to portray themselves for thousands of years before it was used in Dynastic Egypt. It was a symbolic color convention that even Sudanese used on our walls. Here's a picture of a black man from Swaziland standing next to a Hematite mine and his skin tone matches the red ochre.

The only Egyptians that truly carry the genes of the pharaohs that is significant are the black Egyptians in the South. [/QB][/QUOTE]
