[QUOTE]Originally posted by sudaniya: [QB] Even if we were to accept the falsehood that Lower Egyptians were essentially Eurasians, the retarded troll doesn't seem to realise that this is a non-starter; he doesn't seem to realise that since ancient Upper Egyptians were closely related to 'Nubians' (irrefutable fact) that he's already lost. It was the significantly more sophisticated, wealthier and far more powerful South that conquered the North [Narmer] and united the two lands that determined the political and cultural norms. The South created the ancient Egyptian civilization; it was the South that created the written language; the powerful priestly class was centred in Waset -"Thebes"-; the population of ancient Egypt was concentrated in the South; invaders were almost invariably expelled by Southern warrior-kings; the swampy Delta was nothing but a sparsely populated, fragmented backwater until the Southerners conquered it and built magnificent structures that have stood the test of time. The famous Narmer palette shows him on one side wearing the white crown of Upper Egypt, and the other shows him wearing the red crown of Lower Egypt. It also shows the hawk emblem of Horus, the Upper Egyptian god of Nekhem, dominating the Lower Egypt personified papyrus marsh. From this, Narmer is believed to have unified Egypt." http://www.touregypt.net/featurestories/predynastic.htm sample populations available from northern Egypt from before the 1st Dynasty (Merimda, Maadi and Wadi Digla) turn out to be [b] significantly different from sample populations from early Palestine and Byblos, suggesting a lack of common ancestors over a long time.[/b] If there was a south-north cline variation along the Nile valley it did not, from this limited evidence, continue smoothly on into southern Palestine. The limb-length proportions of males from the Egyptian sites group them with Africans rather than with Europeans." (Barry Kemp, "Ancient Egypt Anatomy of a Civilisation. (2005) Routledge. p. 52-60) Karl Butzer has estimated that two areas of greatest population density in dyanstic times were between Luxor{Waset} and Aswan {Elephantine} [/QB][/QUOTE]
