Ancient Greece and Rome are dead, so too is Egyptian Ancient culture it's not cultural appropriation because no one is "taking" it from another group.

They are appropriating narratives, just as Macedonia does with ancient Macedon or say China claiming 3kys of history as some unified Han front.

Regardless most academics have stated for decades various points but also it's understood now history as we know it for ancient Egypt is far more complex then either extreme narrative.

Nogs with access to twitter think they're scholars now.

I mean, blacks saying they wuz fayroahs n sheeit is enough for a laugh, but when they start saying Europe was black until being swept clean by some random chucklefucks from the Caucuses, you're approaching /pol/ territory of tinfoil hattery.

This is how science works bro. Inter-subjectivity. History is no different from others sciences in this regard. Sorry if I triggered your autism but scientific conduct means the exchange of arguments until a consensus is reached (for a time).
>oh right, race is just a social construct like sex and everything is relative, so blacks can identify as egyptian why not...
I really don't know what you expect. Do you want archeologists to pass a bill that limits the freedom of speech?

If you wanna do some heavy reading check and take it from there: http://www.englisch.gnomon-online.de/rech.FAU?sid=4B55E4C53&dm=1&auft=0 (don't know if Egyptology has it's own databases so I took the one from classics). Be disappointed though: Historians don't care really whether Egypt was black. Apparently some blacks in America do and by this they trigger /pol/.

no that's how liberals and "social scientists" want science to work. real science works on reproducible empirical evidence, it only takes 1 scientist to disprove a theory, no matter what the consensus says to him.

I was refuting the part I quoted, not the whole thing. We know egyptians weren't black because they had little to none subsaharan admixture.

Yeah, try to reproduce history. Or try to experiment with astro-physics.
>it only takes 1 scientist to disprove a theory,

Talking about empirical evidence. Your statement is empirically wrong. Read some Kuhn or Lakatos for starters. There are countless examples of theories "surviving" falsificating evidence (e.g -aether theory) for some time. Like it or not there is a social component to history.

What I say still stands.
WHen debating an issue you gotta appeal to evidence, not consensus. That's just lazy argumentation by any standard.

>Yeah, try to reproduce history

history has its own method, not the same as science obviously, but appeal to consensus is not how historical truth is established either.

This is a fallacy pushed by people with no education in genetics or evolution. This position is only fashionable in the West. It's has no basis in reality, it's purely a political stance. This not the belief of people who study genetics and human evolutionary history as it contradicts all the data, and the major theories such as the "Out of Africa theory" and the many genetic clusters

>"There are many other species which have recognized subspecies that are less genetically distinct than human races are. Such species include, for example, the Canadian lynx, the African Buffalo, The Plain Zebra, and the Red Winged Black Bird. Dog breeds are more genetically distinct than most subspecies are and there is no plausible justification for using them as the standard by which to judge other species. The choice of dogs is obviously motivated entirely by the fact that dog breeds are more genetically distinct than human races. There is no other reason that RationalWiki decided to use them as their example. But if we use the same standards as we do for other species the level of genetic differentiation between human race is more than enough to justify calling them subspecies."

Good thing you decided to actually ask about things you're not familiar with, instead of making stupid assumptions.

>What is the food chain?
First of all, it is not a hierarchy. Secondly, it doesn't range animals according to any qualities, it's just who eats whom. Finally, it is in no way similar to the supposed "hierarchy" that anon was talking about.

>What is the leader of the pride?
I am going to assume you're talking about lions. The leader of a lion pride is the highest ranking male. Usually it is the oldest and the strongest of the males in the pride, but not necessarily. Of course, lions, like many other animals, including people even, have a hierarchy in their groups, based on their individual differences, psychology (and often culture in human groups), birth and so on. These are not hierarchies of species, or, again, hierarchies based on certain qualities.

Rome fell in the west and the Merovingian Franks which are a Germanic tribes took over in what's now France

the Frankish realm later split into what would become Germany, France and the low countries and all of those are successors of the Franks which are successors of the Romans in the west hence most of western Europe, including Germany can very much be said to come from Rome

Your argument is flawed as it ignores the centuries of foreign occupation and its cultural shift. The roman empire ended in 1453 and italy was for a century dominated by german overlords.

I guess where many Greeks fleeing Turkish persecution went? The Italian peninsula. That's part of what kick started the renaissance.
>italy was for a century dominated by german overlords.
Not all of Italy. And even if it was, by that logic Germany is Roman because parts of it were dominated by the Roman Empire.
>he living continuation of the roman (and hellenic) world is the orthodox and catholic churches whose influence have stretches over the whole of europe.
Other continuations exist. Someone made a good post demonstrating how the structure of the Roman Empire was almost identical to the structure of the Mafia.

Of course culture shifts. That happened within the Roman Empire itself. It does make Italians any less the living posterity of Romans.

Ancient Egyptians were African by definition, as they lived in Africa, just as modern North Africans are African and Boers are African. However, ancient Egyptians were not black, which is what you are referring to.

No, retard. The common use of the word is to indicate "complete" control of an entire area. You tried to spin it that Roman's conquered all of Europe, they did not come close.

>There is a "conspiracy" (yes I said it....) to erase Black Africans contribution to civilization as we know it. Quite frankly without Black Africans(..and that includes the Egyptians) here would BE no civilization as we know it. The Global white racist establishment would rather the world believed that the oldest, most advance civilization that we know to date was established and ran by whites. They know it's a lie. They want you to NOT believe your eyes. Don't fall for it.

they ruled Europe from end to end that is the definition of span. nobody said they ruled every corner and had complete 100% control of Europe.
But as plenty people have said in this thread many tribes they didn't control migrated into the empire and where employed as mercenaries and auxiliaries this had a lasting effect on Europeans culture as a whole ,the catholic church is a prime example of this as well as the Latin alphabet.

Nubians were Egypts southern neighbor and had a lot in common with Egyptian civilization. Over the years, Nubians have ruled Egypt and Egyptians have ruled Nubia. The cultural boundary between them and the Egyptians is very fuzzy.

Basically, two civilizations that grew up together, one north and one south.

>that's like saying what are Europeans allowed to appropriate Greco-Roman culture
Not really, though I kind of understand where you're coming from.
All of Europe's major nations were under Roman rule, either wholly or in part. Britain, France, Germany, Spain, Portugal, the Netherlands, etc. The remains of amphitheatres, temples, baths, roads, forts and walls can be found everywhere from the far-north of Scotland to Syria and Egypt. I was born in York, a city founded as a Roman 'colonia'. It's natural that people will be interested. The Italians, Spanish, French, Portuguese and Romanians speak linguistic descendants of the Roman tongue, Latin. They have left a genetic legacy too.
Also, as Rome began as a city-state in central Italy, why should it be any more of an 'appropriation' for somebody from, say, Lombardy to take an interest than a person from across the border in France or Switzerland? Because Lombardy and Lazio are part of the same Republic today?

As for the Greeks, they founded colonies as far afield as Spain and the Ukraine. After conquest by the Romans, their philosophies and gods spread across the Empire. Doctors in the Roman armies were invariably Greek too, as evidenced by both written records and finds from archaeological sites across Europe.

PS. Not far from York, archaeologists found dozens of Roman-era sarcophagi adorned with dedications to Egyptian gods, like Serapis. Isotope analysis showed many of the skeletons within belonged to people born and raised in North Africa. Very interesting!

>>2787153
if hes LARPing as a roman from Rome then yeah its a bit silly.
but there's no reason he cant LARP as a citizen or auxiliary from the roman provinces of Germania Inferior or Germania Superior
>>
>>2785545
Not that anon,
But Europe was big at colonizing Africa, then stealing many artifacts, the only theft really of note though is the Egyptian tombs being raided by the British.
>>
>>2789589
>why dont sperg out over this historic image instead
because they literally ruled africa from the cape to cairo. End to end means longest end to end.
Snowniggers trying to claim they wuz romans triggers me

As a snownigger I can assure you that we are not saying that we wuz romans, what we are saying is that we get alot of our culture from the roman one. That's what you get for being a cultural hegemon.
>>
>>2791660
It is odd. In my opinion, Scandinavia has just about the least interesting history and culture in all of Eurasia.
Even the coolest of the Vikings went off and colonised Britain, Ireland, France and the Americas, whilst your modern Nordic is a descendant of the guys who stayed behind to look after their kones sonn
>>
>>2780233

because this retarded topic is not discussed in any academic circle that takes itself even remotely seriously ?
At least... I hope. P....please dont prove me wrong.
>>
>>2791660
oh no they cant have ruled end to end you see if i add an arbitrary line between Senegal and Somalia you can see they didn't control it....lol
but seriously ive never heard of Scandinavians claiming they where Romans. The popular image over there is Vikings.Even then its very dry and stale you go to a place like York and its filled with popular images of vikings like the York dungeons but go to Oslo viking museum and its so dry and dull.If it was the uk you would have a fuck off huge viking bastard statue outside the museum but not Oslo

Is that indicative of Nordics' lack of interest in their own history? Even in the UK you have some pretty cool Viking shit, like Up Helly Aa and the Jorvik Festival

i got the impression they wanted to distance themselves from violence and conflict.Their maritime museum is just filled with pictures of pretty boats but the Greenwich maritime museum in London is filled with historic battle paintings, lord nelson's coat he wore during battle, etc. In The Fram musem they only have a small section on the UK failing to get to the south pole first.

well the blond haired blue eyed hero does come from The Greco-Roman culture. Thats not because it was a common trait in the Mediterranean it was precisely because it was uncommon and made the heroes of old stand out.To the ancients light hair in the Mediterranean sun would have been stunning.
>>
Because they fear blacks. It would just be too 'waycis' (racist) to confront those niggaboos.
>>
>>2785545
Because they propagate a backwards myth that niggers created civilizations that Europeans copied while in reality Egyptians were West Eurasians like Europeans
>>
>>2792851
The problem is this:
>some gods and historical figures had blond hair and light eyes in a population which reportedly has a minority of around 10-15% of fair featured people.
>therefore WE WUZ ROMANZ N SHEEIT
Just like some berbers have literal red hair, some Greeks and Italians have literal blond hair. That, and since foreigners around them had it was seen as exotic . Nothing about it indicates Nordics were Roman.
>>
>>2792881
