[QUOTE]Originally posted by tropicals redacted: [QB] [QUOTE] [b]i don't know anything about headrests, but i am perfectly willing to believe you. i don't mean to deny cultural connections with Sub-Saharan Africa, on the contrary i think they are very interesting.[/b] [/QUOTE]Don’t take my word for it with the headrests: http://www.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/gallery/headrests//index.html [QUOTE] [b]but Egypt obviously also has plenty of cultural elements shared with the Near East, it is not like they are mutually exclusive.

[/QUOTE]Why would you want to suppose for the sake of argument? Is there anything in the mainstream literature that supports this idea? When do you suppose such a back migration occurred?
