If Egyptians are levantines, then why do Ancient Greek historians Herodotus and diodorus say they came from Ethiopia?
>>
>>3027257
Good question anon.
>>
Herodotus thought the world looked like pic related. As you can see, Ethiopia isn't even on it.
You may as well ask where Thule or Hyperborea is.
>>
>>3027335
Ethiopia is on it.
>>
>>3027338
>>3027335
Nevermind, I'm a retard.
But my point still stands, Herodotus said a lot of things we now know to be false.
>>
>>3027257
If Europeans are white how come they came from Africa?
>>
>>3027345
Like?

Diodorus also said it.
>>
>>3027347
How is that at all comparable?
>>
>>3027355
Well a guy said it, didn't he?
>>
>>3027359
But there is actually corroborative evidence to go with the claims of said Greek historians. It's not a stretch.
>>
>>3027353
>Like?
http://listverse.com/2015/04/08/10-historical-facts-that-herodotus-got-hilariously-wrong/
>>
>>3027363
Do we have any concrete idea of what Ethiopia is according to them? It's worth mentioning Herodotus and Diadorus corroborate Greece being the center of the world.
Ethiopia doesn't appear to have solidly defined geography, and appears to be a catch-all term for "territory not Libya or Egypt in Africa"
That's kind of a lot
>>
>>3027376

Herodotus was literally a hick compared to anybody in the modern area, why exactly should we take a yokel's account of history seriously?
>>
>>3027385
Because he was there.
>>

>>

Where? Greece? Ethiopia? India?

>>
>>3027397

So he wasn't there, he was POSSIBLY there.
You are also possibly retarded.
>>
>>3027381
I'm pretty sure given what we know about the word origin meaning "burnt face", the concept is similar to what we now call sub-saharan Africa. Ethiopia is the land of black people.
>>
The pyramids existed already for a longer time than seperates us from the Romans when Herodotus made his claims.
>>
>>3027402
>pretty sure
And modern scientists are pretty sure the genetics of the area haven't changed over time, so where's Herodotus' study?
>>
>>3027395
you made the claim so you must back it up
>>
>>3027406
>And modern scientists are pretty sure the genetics of the area haven't changed over time
You mean haven't changed over time from the mix of african ancestry and returning west asian ancestry they've been since early egypt? Doesn't that itself back up Herodetus, at least to a degree?
>>
>>3027411
No, because it's commonly accepted that there were blacks in Egypt, it's not accepted that all or even the majority of Egyptians were full-blown sub-saharans.
Learn nuance.
>>
>>3027406
The only studied Greek era mummies for some reason, and made that the "basis" of Egyptian DNA. Those were not Egyptians those were invaders. It is well documented that Egyptians came from the south following the flow of the Nile, it is even debatable whether or not they constituted a truly separate and distinct people from Nubians given they both originated in the same place nabta playa.

The fact that Greeks are framed as natives and Nubians as invaders tells you everything you need to know about the agenda that permeates the issue of ancient Egyptians.
>>
>>3027414
You learn nuance. If they have some sub-saharan ancestry, then Herodotus's Ethiopian origin claim isn't too far fetched, it just lacks part of the story.
>>
>>3027414
You don't have to be full blown sub-Saharan to be considered "black".
>>
>>3027420
>make sweeping general claim about Egypt
>but if SOME of them are black then his claim about the origins of ALL Egyptians must be right!
Eh?

>>
>>3027426
>but if SOME of them are black then his claim about the origins of ALL Egyptians must be right!
Holy shit, you are severly dense. "Some of the egyptians" were not black. They pretty much all had a percentage of african ancestry from an originally mixed ancestor group. They may not have been as dark as the Nubians, but to modern eyes, they would be recognizable as lighter shade "black people".

Of course not. Calling Indians or Arabs Black is shallow and ignorant.
>>3028522
Mixes does not mean they are Black.
>>
>>3028532
R1b is common in Africa. Pharaohs, particularly later ones would not be a good representation of the population at large.

I think you need to give up OP. Stop vicariously living through the history and peoples of East Africa. when it's most likely you're a black guy from Philadelphia.
And even stranger you're attributing Egyptian civilization to a people you're not ethnically related to.

Egyptian spans thousands of years, with many peoples ruling over it. So this may not be an either/or situation. Herodotus may have seen "dark-skinned and woolly-haired" Egyptians. This does not necessarily have to be at odds with the DNA evidence from the selected mummies from lived from 1400 B.C. to 400 A.D.

Herodotus is recorded to have actually traveled throughout Egypt, his description of the appearance of these people was based on his own observations.

It's not that I care about Egyptians or East Africans, but I do care about historical accuracy. It is a huge disservice to the people of east Africa to misappropriate their history. I used to think that historical "whitewashing" was a myth perpetrated by paranoid Afro-centrics, but then I started doing my own research and found that it is true. It is absolutely disgusting and represents insecurity on the deepest level.

Egyptians and Nubians come from the same place, it is even debatable whether or not they were truly separate and distinct peoples. There is a ton of cultural evidence form circumcision to mummification which points to cultural continuity along the Nile.

Hah whitewashing. No

Egyptians are depicted as middle Eastern Semitic people. They would be considered white on a us census form.
>>
>>3029288
No they didn't, Egyptians came from the north
>>
>>3029286
New kingdom Pharos are not representative of Egyptian origins or populace at large. Was there a northern element, yes, but the ancient Egyptian culture and people clearly had their roots to the south.

That "study" was unscientific.

>>
>>3029329
We don't know were from the South though, as they may have originated from the lands of Yemen. It's quite obvious that the Egyptians themselves saw themselves differently from both pure whites (Hittites) and blacks (Nubians). Since it's proven that Pharaoh's had more of a modern European genetics and had stuff like red head (Ramesses II) in particular we can most definitely conclude that they were, for the most part, Middle Eastern in ethnicity, maybe slightly darker, but still Indo-European and not Negroid.
>>
>>3029324
So Arabs are considered black by Africans?
>>
>>3029324
Semites originate in Canaan actually, that's where proto-Akkadians spread from. Semites didn't physically exist in Ethiopia pretty much until Arabs started pouring there with the spread of islam.

Are stormfags really this retarded? Are the only black people in their minds coal-dark, jungle people, with nonexistent frontal lobes, and ooga booga lips? There are a variety of phenotypes in Africa. Some have light skin, some have dark skin, some have large foreheads, some have flat noses, and some have "Jew" noses. some have epithelial folds, some have thin lips, some have thick lips, some have high cheekbones, etc.,

>>3029491
>>3029527

Red/Blond hair can occur in "black" people, and African people were also known for dying their hair as well. Also not that when you base your entire thesis on one mummy, Afro-centrists can take that same picture and do pic related to it.

This is beyond retarded at this point. Egypt was home to a variety of races and ethnic groups during the course of its history, but they were unified by a singular culture, i,e., they were all Egyptians.

"Ethiopian" meant dark skinned people at the time; not modern-day Ethiopians. They specifically meant Nubians and such. "Ancient Egypt" was largely a product of the people you see in Upper Egypt today; most of whom would fall under the category of "black" today or "ethiopian" as the Greeks called them.

Both stormfags and afrocentrists are idiots. The ancient Egyptians were similar genetically to modern day Copts, they were neither white or black. It makes complete sense that they would be the most genetically similar population.

Let it go and stop arguing. You're not any different to /pol/tards because you deny the copts' their history too.

There is a kernel of truth to the afrocucks' claims. With this being said, there is still 0 relation to african-americans. Also, the lighter phenotype you see in say modern Copts existed at the time and place too; the women would be depicted as that light at times. But going by the art and Greek descriptions, the majority was the red/brown/black phenotype.

Depictions in the bronze age unironically had nothing to do with actual skin color. This is why both Afrocentrists and Nordicists have no fucking clue what they're talking about, skin color in Egyptian paintings almost always depicts social status, and not someone's real, physical skin color. This is also why they depicted children as basically just tiny adults, instead of depicting them as actual children.

There's literally dozens of predynastic mummies with blonde and red hair. That's enough to prove that the ""native"" population of Ancient Egypt probably wouldn't be considered black by modern standards.
Even with your autistic "one drop rule"

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gebelein_predynastic_mummies

>New Kingdom pharaohs
Ramesses the Great had Red hair and Asiatic features.

And also, why bring up Herodotus when dozens of Greek sources state that Ethiopians resemble darker skinned southern Indians, while Egyptians resemble lighter skinned northern Indians".
Greco-Roman sources make a clear distinction between Egyptians and actual blacks.

Arrian, Indica 6.9

"As for the people of India, those in the south are like the Aethiopians in color, although they are like the rest in respect to countenance and hair (for on account of the humidity of the air their hair does not curl), whereas those in the north are like the Egyptians."

Manilius, Astronomica 4.724

"The appearance of the inhabitants is also not very different in India and Ethiopia: the southern Indians are rather more like Ethiopians as they are black to look on, and their hair is black; only they are not so snub-nosed or woolly-haired as the Ethiopians; the northern Indians are most like the Egyptians physically."

And actually, why bring up Herodotus if you're going to quote him out of context? In that " dark skinned, wooly haired" quote he's comparing Colchians(Ethnic group that inhabited the areas around the black sea) to Egyptians.
And even then, he's using the Greek word "Melanchroes" which doesn't mean black. In most contexts it means bronzed. In opposition to the word "orchos". Which basically just mean sallow.
And all of this is within context of Herodotus's timeperiod. Greek sources call Persians pale when compared to the tanned Greeks. And tons of people would call Iranians dark skinned today.

>>
>>3036415
There is a couple things that don't add up.

1st- meds are notoriously hairy, Egyptians were not. Blonde hair is extremely rare if existent at all in Mediterranean populations, so it is more than highly unlikely that there would be a bunch of pharaohs with blonde hair even if they were Mediterranean. That "blonde" hair looks in no way natural.

2nd- Egyptians drew meds and levantines different and lighter than themselves.

3rd- If they were Mediterranean why wouldn't Herodotus say they were. If they were Greeks, then why wouldn't he call them Greeks? Why would he compare them to Ethiopians.

4th- The Egyptians utilized distinctly African practices ie. circumcision, and mummification as well as style of dress, braids and animists religion.

5th- They often depicted themselves the same color as Nubians, why would they do this if they were a distinctly different people>>3029385

6th- By their own admission they came from the south, why would they say that if they came from the north.
>>
>>3036831
I suspect that Egypt has practically always been somewhat similar to Italy in that the northern populations are lighter, and the southern populations darker. It is just that simple.

Being Egyptian is not really monolithic, but most evidence points to upper(black) Egyptians being a more ancient population.

>Herodotus compared them to Ethiopians
Herodotus made a distinction between them and Ethiopians. He compared them to a dark skinned(relative to Greeks) people that inhabited the area bordering the black sea.

"For the fact is as I soon came to realise myself, and then heard from others later, that the Colchians are obviouslyEgyptian. When the notion occurredto me,I asked both the Colchians and the Egyptians about it, and found that the Colchians had better recall of the Egyptians than the Egyptians did of them. Some Egyptians said that they thought the Colchians originated with Sesostris’ army, but I myself guessed their Egyptian origin not only because the Colchians aredark-skinnedand curly-haired(which does not count for much by itself , because these features are common in others too) but more importantly because Colchians, Egyptians and Ethiopians are the only peoples in the world who practise circumcision and who have always done so."

I don't think you're going to argue Africans lived near the Black Sea.

>Blonde hair in no way natural

Ramesses the Great and tons of other mummies that predated any Greek or west Asian incursions into Egypt had blonde, red or brown hair. Their follicles survived and have been analyzed. Just like Berbers, the Egyptians are a North African people who can have light hair. Red hair was actually considered to have religous significance in Egypt.

It specifically implies Sub Saharan African features. Some Dravidian Indians have way darker skin than African Americans but nobody would call them black. You're grasping at straws for your we wuz narrative. Nobody would consider Ancient Egyptians black just because they were tan.
Would they consider Nubians black? Sure. Ethiopians black? Sure. Maybe some upper egyptians would be considered black. But not people like Neferiti and Ramesses the Great.

that's an idiotic overreaction if true

one of the keys of genome studies is that they barely affect the phenotype. Anatolians have dozens of admixtures because they are one of the world's crossroads, but their visible phenotypes can be lumped in two, at best. Caucasian Witheish westeners and brownish easteners.

The only thing this studio does prove is the easy to assume idea that people had sex with slaves and trader foreigners. Doesn't mean the whole population looked black or less brown than you average egyptian, or that slave trade was a legitimate influence in how your average peasant looked.

Reading the article:

>genetic continuity between ancient and modern Egyptians cannot be ruled out by our formal test despite this sub-Saharan African influx, while continuity with modern Ethiopians, who carry >60% African L lineages, is not supported

>In contrast, a substantially larger sub-Saharan African component, found primarily in West-African Yoruba

This seals it. Basically the studios are saying "ottoman traders couldn't keep their dicks off the slaves they bought while transporting them from the southern border to the capital"

Also what races does the H mtDNA correspond to? sudanese? southern arab?

I like to see a study like this performed on the brits. I want to know if they got SCANDIED during the vicking age. I'd like to be able to differentiate an anglo from a celt and from germanic mongrel rape babies.

It is well known that ancient egypt was ruled by nubians for a couple generations after a military defeat of the egyptians. This is where the nig,we wuz kangz comes from.

migration along the Nile wasn't just in one direction, it went both ways. It's kind of one of the reasons Egypt became so strong. There were several massive migrations into Africa from the Near East among other origin points. You need to exorcise your fucking spooks.

>Modern Egyptians share 8% of their genome with central Africans, far more than ancient ones, according to the study, published in the journal Nature Communications. The influx of Sub-Saharan genes only occurred within the last 1,500 years. This could be attributed to the trans-Saharan slave trade or just from regular, long distance trade between the two regions. Improved mobility on the Nile during this period increased trade with the interior, researchers claim.

stop ignoring evidence that utterly BTFO your retarded fairy tale spooks like "migration is only possible in one direction along the Nile."

>Group leader Wolfgang Haak at the Max Planck Institute in Germany said, "The genetics of the Abusir el-Meleq community did not undergo any major shifts during the 1,300 year timespan we studied, suggesting that the population remained genetically relatively unaffected by foreign conquest and rule."

The Hyksos never really integrated into egyptian society. They settled in the desert regions and undermined egyptian authority, but they never actually integrated into egyptian society. Egypt was extremely xenophobic, and viewed both Nubians and West Asians as being subhumans.
Which is actually why I don't get the point alot of the kangposters here are making. If there wasn't a clear difference between Nubians and Egyptians, why did Egyptians depict Nubians as these black skinned mutants, and vilify them as literal subhumans? I'm not even talking from a racial standpoint, which is what you're implying. But Egyptians never even accepted them as cultural equals.

because it isn't a real possibility, it's far more likely those samples are fucking native given their obvious consistency over 1300 years. In fact their unique genetic clustering almost guarantees it.

No, the study says that it only got samples from Middle Egypt; not Southern Egypt which is where Egyptian civilization began. The majority of "Egyptians" at that time were the Southerners. Don't believe me? Look up their art. We can clearly see how they depicted themselves.

Nubia was royal holy analgoius to modern day Sudan desu. North Nubians like Northern Sudanese were very similar to Upper Egyptians. Southern Nubians today's Southern Sudanese were black Nilotic negroids. Ancient Nubia was probably a mix of the two. When depicting their enemies, the Egyptians would stereotypically draw Southern Nubians more to separate themselves from their enemies. Pic related is Nubian pharaoh and queen ; probably same phenotype as average of the time.

what makes you think the people who lived in Southern Egypt were radically different than the people who lived in Middle Egypt?

You cannot possibly substantiate this position because it is fundamentally incoherent. You're trying to tell me that there was literally no intermarriage between those regions when it should be obvious that isn't true. Those samples were utterly devoid of SSA genetic influence, and represent a previously unknown population grouping.

Do you honestly believe those same peoples couldn't have been the original Egyptians? Do you even know what the Neolithic is and why the timescale is significant here? You are out of your depth here, we're talking about peoples with lineages going back more than 10,000 years popping up during the time of the goddamn Roman Empire almost completely unscathed.

Actual egyptologists who actually understand things about Egyptian artwork and culture are reeling because of this you know. You're just being stubborn because you have so much of your hard-drive dedicated to a very narrow line of argument.

But SSA doesn't necessarily mean "black". Unless there was a literal wall between Sudan and Egypt it would be virtually impossible for zero "black" genetics to make it to the border of Egypt northward. That's what makes this study claiming native Egyptians were studied so dubious. It is just so highly unlikely that there was no blackness in Egypt at all considering what lies to the south of the Brit drawn borders with no natural boundaries. The fact modern Egyptians are mulattic also points to their samples potentially being foreigners or immigrants. There has been no sound explanation of how modern Egyptians Suddenly became part black, since they supposedly weren't already. Slave trade? That has gone on since before ancient Egypt.

Human migration patterns alone dictate that they could not have been the original Egyptians.

Th study authors themselves noted that caveat.

Because that is phenotypically the case now? I doubt the studies have even grouped genomes of the populace by region yet. Im sure when they do, then we will see some interesting results.

>Do you honestly believe those same peoples couldn't have been the original Egyptians
I'm sure they are in part but have been absorbing waves of Eurasian mixture like abdi hypothesized.


>Actual egyptologists who actually understand things about Egyptian artwork and culture are reeling because of this you know.
No, the jury is still out buddy. The art work clearly shows a preponderance of red/brown types with scarce facial hair (unlike meds, arabs and Mena people who are notoriously hairy. This is the type of today's Upper Egyptians, Nubians and North Sudanese. If the art isn't enough, there is clear archeological evidence of the earliest development having their roots in the south . See Nabta Playa amongst other sites. Lastly, several Ancient Greek authors grouped them with "Ethiopians" (dark skinned Nubians) at the time.

The art, the archeology and the other sources clearly point towards it.

What the fuck do you think those results from the study were? Stop bullshitting and read the fucking thing you retard.

How do you not understand the simplest shit? Bedouins and Palestinians are the two groups alive today that the ancient Egyptians most closely corresponded to, but it's never suggested that they're the same people. Just that they're ironically more closely related to those two groups than actual modern day Egyptians, which is a fact you just can't seem to wrap your tiny head around.

It's time to put your big boy pants on, autist. Your 19th century racial pseudoscience has no place in legitimate academic discussion.
