No, it's supposed to be an allusion to psilocybin mushrooms. I'm not even trolling you here.

>>
>>1960543
Only the first two looks like real blue eyes. The second has a blue sclera, so it's obviously not representing eye color, and the third is just weird all over (blue eyebrows, multicolored and weirdly shaped eyes), so it's not supposed to be a realistic depiction at all.

Sumerian art I don't know much about but in 99% of Egyptian paintings people have dark eyes. Taking one that happens to have blue ones and making this claim is wewuzism at it's finest.

A lot of non-Nordic populations have blue eyes.

they are the minority and they're like that only statues, which lead me to think that it's because they just wanted to put precious gems in his eyes, not that the actual people had blue eyes, this is why Egyptians appear to always have black hair and eyes in paintings
>>
>>1960543
Buddha Sakyamuni canonically is supposed to have had blue eyes. But while he's an Aryan in the Indian sense, he had a few other weird features too, so I'm unsure whether the blue eyes were meant to indicate his ancestry.

Like, see here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_characteristics_of_the_Buddha

>>1960592

Each one of those civilizations are known to have used some form of psilocybin mushroom in their mystery rites. Having the eyes of the statue be blue is supposed to let you know that they have taken the mushroom
>>

>You can dye your eyebrows blue but you can't dye your eyes blue.

yes but you can put gems in a statue, it's a statue of Buddha and not meant to be accurate

>Remember some Native American gods were blue eyed. It was not unknown.

No Native South Americans have blue eyes, that aside, that statue doesn't look like a realistic depiction, first of all his pupils are white and he has no iris, and the rest of the body is golden, I doubt the intent of the sculptor was to make a realistic depiction of an actual person

Interesting link. The 32 characteristics of a great man are

Level feet
Thousand-spoked wheel sign on feet
Long, slender fingers
Pliant hands and feet
Toes and fingers finely webbed
Full-sized heels
Arched insteps
Thighs like a royal stag
Hands reaching below the knees
Well-retracted male organ
Height and stretch of arms equal
Every hair-root dark colored
Body hair graceful and curly
Golden-hued body
Ten-foot aura around him
Soft, smooth skin
Soles, palms, shoulders, and crown of head well-rounded
Area below armpits well-filled
Lion-shaped body
Body erect and upright
Full, round shoulders
Forty teeth
Teeth white, even, and close
Four canine teeth pure white
Jaw like a lion
Saliva that improves the taste of all food
Tongue long and broad
Voice deep and resonant
Eyes deep blue
Eyelashes like a royal bull
White ūrṇā curl that emits light between eyebrows
Fleshy protuberance on the crown of the head

Pretty much sounds like a typical healthy White male mixed with mysticism.

It's the same fucking logic that people shoot down people like the Black Israelites for every day. There are many cases of there being black statues in Egypt and other areas. That does not mean they were of black skinned people. It's foolish of anyone to impose our post Renaissance concepts of art and the purpose behind the art on 5000 year old people. The things they depicted in their art were not always done for the sake of realism.

I highly doubt fair skinned leaders inspired blue eyes on statues internationally. The rationale seems flawed, but my opinion is equally wild with speculation.

Water as an element is often represented by the color blue i.e. oceans.

Christians use "living water" such as rivers to be baptized or reborn in the name of the Lord. As if they shed their old being to create a more spiritually intuned, holy, or pure state of being. In a strange way, one might say they've been resurrected by the death of their sins into a more spiritual, redeemed, holy servant to the divine i.e. God in this case.

In India it is believed that bathing in the Ganges river (Ganga) washes away one's sins and the water cleanses you of all the evil.

Osiris was an ancient Egyptian god depicted with blue skin in his resurrected form. Upon his death and resurrection he becomes more sacred & highly revered in a spiritual sense, and he takes on the role of the King of the Gods.

My guess:
>I believe one could rationally deduce that those statues painted with blue eyes represent figures who have left our realm of existence and moved onto a higher state of being whether through resurrection, rebirth, achieving nirvana/moksha, or reaching what we in the West would call Heaven.

I'm familiar with water in theology. It seems like a stretch to associate it with eyes.

>I believe one could rationally deduce that those statues painted with blue eyes represent figures who have left our realm of existence and moved onto a higher state of being whether through resurrection, rebirth, achieving nirvana/moksha, or reaching what we in the West would call Heaven.

It could be but it's pretty much established that some of the people in ancient populations in Egypt, Sumer and India had blue eyes.

How to deduce whether the statues at least partially reflect the actual characteristics of the people they were immortalizing?

I think her eyes are brown, but that's not the point. Look at her skin tone, her lips, and her fucking nose. She's about as negroid as I am.

Now I'm not some white supremacist, but if you think that Nefertiti was a "black woman" you are the very model of delusional.

Blue eyes are neat and mystical to these cultures. It was mostly showing how the elites were "different". Godlike, even. There are naturally better than the population. This was essentially early propaganda to subdue the people.

>implying that woman is anything other than a Mediterranean mut

I'm not saying black people weren't kings and shit but Nefertiti really shouldn't be your poster child, she's about a non-black as you could get unless you subscribe to the 'drop in the bucket' idea. Protip: don't do that, it mean's you're a tryhard and a retard

I've never heard the blue eyes part. I know Quetzalcoatl is described as white and with a beard, but keep in mind he is represented usually in green skin, And white is more like white painted skin not light skinned human tone . Gods in white body paint was not unusual in Mesoamerica. And beards well, some people grew them. In any case theres few depictions of Quetzalcoatl that show him this way except that he was know as the white Tezcatlipoca, and again white referring to the cardinal direction, whose colors originate from the colors of maize (blue,red, black and white) and the idea suspiciously came about in the early colonial period.

I'm not sure why people insist blue eyes are uniquely white, rather than Caucasoid. Of course they're most prevalent in white populations, but you'll find them all the way through Eurasia and North Africa into North-West India. Plus there were the Tocharians, of at least partial-Caucasoid descent, who made it to what's now Western China
We know all of these people draw part of their DNA from a common gene pool that existed at some point in the last few thousand years after all

Is there even such a thing as 'black'? All non sub-Saharans are descended from a single ethnic group which left ~80,000 years ago, but for how long were there ethnic divisions between human groups before that?

We know for a fact the first major populations in Egypt were farmers from the Levant, and that there was an 'into Africa' (specifically the Horn) migration of Eurasian people around 3-5,000 years ago.
Even if we're hypothetical and say everybody in Ancient Egypt was ethnically half-Somalian, or some equivalent, what does that mean to West Africans and their Afro-American descendants? Not a great deal.

Almost nobody in sub-Saharan Africa itself tries to claim Egypt was a 'black civilisation', only quasi-intellectual African Americans trying to find their place in the world after losing touch with their actual heritage

I don't believe blue-eyed depictions such as these are isolated to the four examples provided so kindly by OP. Also, I will concede that the Ptolemaic Dynasty was of Greek decent; this means that they had European genetics, thus lending partially to OP's claims. However, the Sumerians were Middle Eastern, the Peruvians were Native South Americans, and the Buddha was Nepalese (unless I'm wrong and he was in fact a white man with blue eyebrows).
>>
>>1960543
Blue eyes are more rare, so in the past people with blue eyes would have been valued in a particular sense.

Based on that, there are multiple beliefs that people with blue eyes have magical inclinations/capabilities. Today you have remnants of this belief in the form of the Evil Eye talismans and some peoples such as gypsies which fear individuals with blue eyes because of this.

The world is more or less racially identical to Antiquity except for extreme colonial displacement in places like North America and Australia which was enabled by extreme technologies and ideologies.

Any genetic study will show one thing, that genetics are a spectrum in correlation with geography. If one asks "what did the Egyptians look like", the most logical answer would be: "something between Syrian and Nubian". Or if you wonder what the Anatolians were like: "something between Greek, Syrian and Armenian". Persians: "something between Mesopotamians and Central Asians".

Male divinity more specifically, there are exceptions of course. The sun and the color blue, because of the sky is associated with waking consciousness because we are diurnal.
