[QUOTE]Originally posted by the lioness,: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by JoshuaConnerMoon: [qb] If you read the [i]full[/i] quote from Gliddon you get the proper context- "The Egyptians were white men, of no darker hue than a [b]pure Arab, a Jew, or a Phoenician[/b]." The Arabs, Jews, Phoenicians are light brown skinned, not white. That's why he uses those examples of Arab or Jews, rather than say Celts or Germanics. And I don't see what your problem is with Nott & Gliddon's conclusion that Egyptians plot intermediate as a gradient between Sub-Saharan Africans and Asiatics. That's what modern craniometric and genetic data supports, its also plain common-sense if you look at the geographical position of Egypt. [/qb][/QUOTE]The problem is when someone writes The Egyptians were white men, of no darker hue than a pure Arab, a Jew, or a Phoenician that this is patently false and you yourself said they weren't white. There is no need to speculate and obfuscate with semantics and terminology there is a massive amount of art where you can see the skin tone. Much of it is dark brown not light brown. You choose to ignore it, that is dishonest.
