Great observations, here. The trend in interracial dating is that black men get white women, and white men get Asian women. Who wants Asian men? Who wants black females? They are left out in the cold.
I wasn't quoting anyone. I just told you what I found in Wikipedia. It also told me this is what Coptics look like: So these folks don't look black to me, so again, I don't know where you are going with this.
The copts are greeks, so yes they were their before the Arabs but neither are ethnically similar to Aegyptians. The Aegyptians were the same family as Ethiopians and Somali's, Hamitic. The Israelites were Semitic and the Europeans were Japhites (gentiles)
Well I dunno. It's not that Wikipedia is that great a source, but you really have not brought anything as proof, particularly since all of those ancient statues and wall paintings depicting a Semitic looking people. But like I said, it's all easy enough to solve with DNA analysis of the mummies, so what does that say?
Proof of what? I'm just discussing, what do you want me to prove? The Ancient Egyptians were not semitic end of story, you must be the only person that thinks they were. Maybe you should go find some literature from the time about who was who you know, do some research if you're interested. Dna does not show melanin content, I think that will answer your query.
As you wrote, Wiki is not always reliable as it missed out Amhara Coptics such as this: History shows this is what ancient Egyptians looked like. Do a search for other Coptic tribal groupings and you will see that they are very dark skinned people.
Some Coptic Christians may have originally come from Ethiopia, which has been Christianized for over 1500 years. Interestingly, the Ethiopian royal family claims descendance from a Jewish king of Israel: Hmmm, an ignorant black woman was tricked and taken advantage of by a clever jew. Some things never change.
Yes, I'm a qualified historian and part time literature critic. If there is anything I state that you disagree with then come forward.
Blacks, Asians, and pretty much everyone else who isn't ashamed of themselves would disagree with you, but they will absolutely applaud your desire to see your own race wiped out. You're doing what they wish they could do to white people.
OK qualified historian. You seem to obsessed with ancient Egyptian racial characteristics, so if you don't believe their ethnic make up was similar to todays, and you said I'm the only one who thinks they were semitic, what was their racial make up? And a bonus question, what was Cleopatra's ethnic make up?
To distinguish whether or not the AEgyptians were semitic we first have to find out where that word comes from. It derives from the bible and was one of the three sons of Noah, Shem (Semite). In order to put it in context we have too look at the descendants of Shem to determine whether AEgypt was one. So we look for the name of Aegypt which is Mizraim and see who they are descended from and whether they were from Shem. Yet Mizraim is the son of Ham (Noah's other son) and brother of Kush. Ham's descendants went on to populate Africa. Todays racial classifications are kind of similar, there were 3 races, Hamites, Semites and Japhites. Hamites were southerners, Semites were asiatic and Japhites were europeans and gentiles. Cleopatra's sister was supposedly Afro/Asian so I'm guessing she was similar with a bit more greek maybe. I mean she was part of the Ptolemy household so you know, not exactly Egyptians are they.
Yet you get on here daily and categorize everything by race. You support things like "african americans for Obama."
Cleopatra as she looked in her day (Syrian coin): Note the Afro, high cheek bones, large nose, thick lips ~ all Negroid features, contrary to the Hollywood image she has today.
Wow, it's the 21st Century and this willful ignorance is astounding. Cleopatra was Greek. You can learn that in high school. And the "afro" on that coin look more like Greek curls to me. But... some people need their fairy stories, so go ahead.
That's right. Cleopatra was a a Macedonian Greek of the Ptolemaic Dynasty. They were all descended from Alexander the Great's Satrap for Egypt.
Maybe in Archie Bunker's school but not in a real school. Moreover, her hair is clearly Afro style and all other facial features are Negroid.
Cleo's parents were probably brother and sister as was often the Ptolemaic custom. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleopatra_VII_of_Egypt#Ancestry
Wow, some of those picks were rotten. Madonna and Brittany Spears 4 and 5? Jennifer Aniston is awesome but #1? Kim Kardashian anywhere on that list? Suzanne Somers ahead of Grace Kelly? Just too many to mention.
Yeah, like all the Ancient Israelites and Egyptians were caucus asians lololol. Anyhow, most of the info on the net assumes she was mixed ethnicity with Greek and native egyptian it doesn't really bother me, she's is a fairly unimportant character. The only reason we europeans make a fuss over her is because she was half european, woopeedoo!
