[QUOTE]Originally posted by Punos_Rey: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by sudaniya: [qb] I don't place much stock into the genetic profile of modern Lower Egyptians, as that region was constantly compromised by invasions from Western Asia and southern Europe. Provide and cite studies on ancient Lower Egyptians that place them closer to Eurasians than to Northeast Africans. Lower Egyptians adapted to their region and may have had skin tones similar to the San people of southern Africa. I have seen studies in which predynastic and early dynastic Lower Egyptians group more with Africans than they do with Eurasians. Ancient Egypt may well have been the first cosmopolitan civilization on earth and we see this is in the fact that Syrians and other Asiatics were allowed to become naturalised Egyptians - serving as scribes and soldiers; and so there may have been a biracial component in Lower Egypt that gradually increased as time went on with an even smaller component of Eurasians in the mix. This still would not help you. [/qb][/QUOTE]I don't even see why Lower Egyptians are a problem. From what I've read though they had some morphological differences from Upper Egyptians/Nubians, they were still indigenous and more closely related to Upper Egyptians than any outside group.
