[QUOTE]Originally posted by Cass/: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Oshun: Ancient southern Egyptians were also not only in the tropical zone, but the Nubians from which the ancestral population and cultural complex formed that the Egyptians used later. The noted tropical body plans of many Egyptians demonstrates that many of them, regardless of climate changes still had tropical adaptations. This suggests a deeply rooted relationship to the Nubian regions (and people) of the Nile as well. I imagine this is especially true the further south we'd get with respect to Nubia and Egypt. And even if they'd fully adapted to the desert or a different latitude, that is an adaption to an African geological construct the same way Africans adapting to southern African deserts would be.[/QUOTE]None of ancient Egypt was inside the tropics. You've confused ancient boundary with modern. Also the ancient Egyptians were not tropically adapted, that has been debunked, but Afrocentrists just repeat the same debunked material over and over. Your ancient Egypt was inside tropics blunder comes from copying Zaharan's material: [QUOTE]Southern Egypt, from which the genesis of Ancient Egypt civilization sprang, lies in the tropical zone, from the Tropics of Cancer to Capricorn with the Tropic of cancer bisecting Southern Egypt at 23°26'N 25°0'E.[/QUOTE]This completely ignores the boundary of ancient Egypt was at Aswan. The southernmost frontier only moved further south to fall inside the tropics in modern times. None of the ancient Egypt was inside the tropics, that's why its ridiculous to argue Egyptians were tropically adapted. Also note the other blunder/stupidity of Zaharan's map: [IMG]https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-WwkVU0BKx88/VyVR4QJXMWI/AAAAAAAACXc/JSob0bfsqOQqBLcVHTYeQn_61kXXpn4jgCLcB/s1600/tropicalcoldclimatedebunk.jpg[/IMG] What this map actually shows is most the Levant is the same "hot desert environment" as Egypt. And if you want to actually look up biogeographical realms, mostly based on faunna, we find this- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palearctic_realm [IMG]http://www.earthonlinemedia.com/ebooks/tpe_3e/biomes/biorelm.jpg[/IMG] Of course this doesn't fit well with Afrocentric politics. :D [/QB][/QUOTE]
