[QUOTE]Originally posted by sudaniya: [QB] "..sample populations available from northern Egypt from before the 1st Dynasty (Merimda, Maadi and Wadi Digla) turn out to be significantly different from sample populations from early Palestine and Byblos, suggesting a lack of common ancestors over a long time. 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.( Routledge. p. 52-60)(2005 "The Late Period is often singled out as the time when mass immigration into Egypt altered the character of the country” —A Companion to Ancient History Edited by Andrew Erskine (2009) Indigenous Lower Egyptians adapted to their environment the same way the San did, and so light skin of that sort is to be expected. Lower Egypt has been so demographically damaged that there is simply no way of identifying the modern derivatives of all the invasions with the ancients. Ancient Egypt was the first truly cosmopolitan society in history and did allow Syrians and other Levantines to serve as soldiers and scribes, so there may been a very small population of these people in Lower Egypy during the later periods. The Pharaohs also had Asiatic concubines, but it would be laughable to parcel out the heritage of ancient Egypt to a minority of latecomers. In any case, Upper Egyptians were the alpha majority and really did create the civilization. [/QB][/QUOTE]
