[QUOTE]Originally posted by Ish Gebor: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by JoshuaConnerMoon: [qb] Sudaniya is posting photos of Nubians/Sudanese, but saying they are Egyptians. But he didn't check the URLs he's posting ; they have "Nubian" and "Nubian girls" in their titles. [IMG]http://www.ausbonsai.com.au/forum/images/smilies/facepalm.gif[/IMG] Egyptians are not black - so he's spamming photos of darker skinned Nubians while titling them Egyptians trying to fool people. He's just discredited himself. Also, the ancient Greek term Afrocentrists translate as "black skin" is highly ambiguous; as classicist Alan B. Lloyd notes: "Melanchroes could denote any colour from bronzed to black". When it is used to describe ancient Egyptians, it refers to a light brown/bronze complexion because ancient Greeks likened the Egyptian skin hue to north Indians. [/qb][/QUOTE]O_o boy, shut f... up. Nubians are Southern Egyptians and North Sudanese. Who gives a s...t about classicist Alan B. Lloyd and his nazi theory. [QUOTE] [b]"The Mahalanobis D2 analysis uncovered close affinities between Nubians and Egyptians.[/b] Table 3 lists the Mahalanobis D2 distance matrix. As there is no significance testing that is available to be applied to this form of Mahalanobis distances, the biodistance scores must be interpreted in relation to one another, rather than on a general scale. In some cases, the statistics reveal that the Egyptian samples were more similar to Nubian samples than to other Egyptian samples (e.g. Gizeh and Hesa/Biga) and vice versa (e.g. Badari and Kerma, Naqada and Christian). These relationships are further depicted in the PCO plot (Fig. 2). Aside from these interpopulation relationships, some Nubian groups are still more similar to other Nubians and some Egyptians are more similar to other Egyptian samples. [b]Moreover, although the Nubian and Egyptian samples formed one well-distributed group,[/b] the Egyptian samples clustered in the upper left region, while the Nubians concentrated in the lower right of the plot. One line can be drawn that would separate the closely dispersed Egyptians and Nubians. The predynastic Egyptian samples clustered together (Badari and Naqada), while Gizeh most closely groups with the Lisht sample. The first two principal coordinates from PCO account for 60% of the variation in the samples. The graph from PCO is basically a pictorial representation of the distance matrix and interpretations from the plot mirror the Mahalanobis D2 matrix."[/QUOTE]--Godde K. An Examination of Nubian and Egyptian biological distances: Support for biological diffusion or in situ development? Homo. 2009;60(5):389-404. Epub 2009 Sep 19. [QUOTE] [i]The Predynastic populations studied here, from Naqada and Badari, are both Upper Egyptian samples, while the Dynastic Egyptian sample (Tarkhan) is from Lower Egypt. The Dynastic Nubian sample is from Upper Nubia (Kerma). [b]Previous analyses of cranial variation found the Badari and Early Predynastic Egyptians to be more similar to other African groups than to Mediterranean or European populations (Keita, 1990; Zakrzewski, 2002).[/b] [...] [b]Studies of cranial morphology also support the use of a Nubian (Kerma) population for a comparison of the Dynastic period, as this group is likely to be more closely genetically related to the early Nile valley inhabitants[/b] [...] [/i] [/QUOTE]-- AP Starling, JT Stock.
