[QUOTE]Originally posted by Shebitku: [QB] Bumping this thread as a certain degenerate, for some reason or another, is sporadically posting about Ancient Libyans in threads where they are of no relevance whatsoever, yet this same degenerate can't or wont address a single thing i've posted here in this thread. Interesting to say the least... Anyway here's more sources relevant to the fact that the Ancient Libyans did not solely consist of races of people with pig like skin. [QUOTE]It seems therefore that [b]the ancient population of Libya was made up of different races. Thus we find one Roman author saying that 'some of the Libyans resemble Ethiopians[/b], whilst others are of Cretan stock'.[/QUOTE]- D. Olderogge, General history of Africa I [QUOTE][b]Herodotus describes Africa as home to four races of men: Phoenicians, Hellenes, Libyans, and Ethiopians. Only the latter two were natives.[/b] The cultures of the Libyans and Ethiopians were frequently compared. Libyans were primarily nomadic and occupied the deserts of the North Africa to the west of Egypt. [b]'Libyan,' unlike 'Ethiopian,' had no racial connotations; it was associated only with geography.'Ethiopian' became a descriptor for any individual with certain somatic features; thus[/b] it is conceivable that [b]white foreigners might confuse true Ethiopians with any other African subgroups, such as the Libyans[/b]. For their lack of a central mythology, the Libyans were of far less interest to the ancients than were the Ethiopians.[/QUOTE]- Michael W.
