[QUOTE]Originally posted by Ish Gebor: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Fourty2Tribes: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: I mean I don't want to assume a conspiracy per say, but I can't help but get the feeling this study was nothing more than a giant strawman to distract from the [i]true[/i] origins of Egypt. [/QUOTE]It's not a conspiracy it's common sense. There have been about 10 reported genetic test on ancient Egyptians and the only two that were released by the people who took them was BMJ in 2012 with Ramses iii's haplogroup and Khairat et al in 2013 which reported the I2 haplogroup from a mummy dated that was dated around 500 BC. Ramses iii and the Armana ancestry tests were picked off of supplementary data. The media completely ignored those results. But this Abu Sir test came with a media slogan. [QUOTE] Ancient Egyptian mummies were genetically the most similar to people from the Middle East (especially modern people from the Levant) and had less Sub-Saharan African ancestry than the average modern Egyptian. [/QUOTE]And was billed as the first genetic study on ancient Egyptians. So they tested a heavy foreign burial/era to release 'the first' genetic study. So... what was this in the 80s? http://www.nytimes.com/1985/04/16/science/intact-genetic-material-extracted-from-an-ancient-egyptian-mummy.html?pagewanted=all&mcubz=2 [/qb][/QUOTE]The problem I am having here is that this Max Planck institute has a history associated with the NAZI's. And Felix von Luschan has been criticized for being a racist (during his days). These are very important factors. With that being said this "The Make America Great Again" rise of white nationalism era. [/QB][/QUOTE]
