[QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [QB] Okay. I don't know what the long winded argument was about but I do agree with Keita that the Kushite pharaohs labeled as "black" is nothing more than a strawman argument implying the Egyptians were not black or somehow "white". Of course Keita himself has proven through several studies that the typical Kushite cranial morphology is no different from those of Egyptians of the pyramid period, yet nobody lablels the pyramid dynasty pharaohs as "black". And then there is the whole issue of racializing Africans only or in this case 'certain' Africans as "blacks". Yet you never hear this same rhetoric applied to, say, Europeans. When Greece was conquered by her northern neighbor Macedon, Alexander the Great and his successors were not referred to as "white kings". [/QB][/QUOTE]
