Colossal Head from Statue of King Tut's Granddad Found at Amenhotep III Funerary Temple Site

What was the racial designation of King Tut's Grandfather? Of Queen Tiy? of Tut? This type of wording is generally left out. Why? These great people of Kemetian (Egyptian) history were Africans (*). Despite the Hysos invasions of 1675 BC, the indiginous population and the dynastic leadership were Black people in the modern sense of the term. The Hyksos (foreign Asians) casused a disruption in parts of the leadership for about 75 years but were a very small population. The vast majority of the region was comprised of Black people. The 14th dynasty marked the ridding of the Hyksos from Africa by Queen Hatsepsut's Father using massive African Armies. Why is the "race factor" continuously handled in such a way that it is easy for one to assume that Ancient Egyptian Civilization was Caucasian or Asian?

The Ancient Egyptians were not part of the African race (i.e. black). They were, and are, members of the European, or "Caucasian" race, like other North Africans. There was a very brief period in Egyptian history when the Nubians, who were black, ruled Egypt, but this was way after the 18th Dynasty. On what do you base your assertion that the Ancient Egyptians were black?

As a proud African American, nothing disturbs me more than seeing how mis-informed, illiterate and belligerent MY PEOPLE still are in America... even amidst the historic election of the first African American President of the United States of America. If the antropology of the region was studied, if the cultural and historical linguistics were considered and if we looked at Egyptian art (from their own varied perspective), we would see that the ancient Egyptians were a racially DIVERSE PEOPLE - consisting of everyone from Black Nubians to pale skinned Mediterraneans (and every shade and physical attribute in between)... And this being from the pre-dynastic throughout their 3000 + year history. Nothing has changed (as far as the physical/racial characteristics of the people) from then to now and not even conquests from people such as Nubians or the Greeks (i.e. Blacks/Whites) made any permanent impression upon the general population in Egypt. These examples were the ruling classes only and not indicative of what the average ancient Egyptian looked like. You can not have a country that literally borders Sudan, Libya and Israel and not have a huge variation of human phenotypes.

Tutankhamun was not black: Egypt antiquities chief

AFP - September 25, 2007

Egyptian antiquities supremo Zahi Hawass insisted Tuesday that Tutankhamun was not black despite calls by US black activists to recognise the boy king's dark skin colour.

"Tutankhamun was NOT BLACK, and THE PORTRAYAL OF ANCIENT EGYPTIAN CIVILISATION AS BLACK HAS NO ELEMENT OF TRUTH TO IT," Hawass told reporters.

"EGYPTIANS ARE NOT ARABS AND ARE NOT AFRICANS DESPITE THE FACT THAT EGYPT IS IN AFRICA," he said, quoted by the official MENA news agency.

Hawass said he was responding to several demonstrations in Philadelphia after a lecture he gave there on September 6 where he defended his theory.

Protestors also claimed images of King Tut were altered to show him with lighter skin at the "Tutankhamun and the Golden Age of the Pharaohs" exhibit which leaves Philadelphia for London on September 30.

The exhibition sparked an uproar when it kicked off in Los Angeles in June 2005 when black activists demanded that a bust of the boy king be removed because the statue portrays him as white.

The face of the legendary pharaoh, who died around 3,300 years ago at the age of just 19, was reconstructed in 2005 through images collected through CAT scans of his mummy.

The boy king's intact tomb caused an international sensation when it was discovered by Briton Howard Carter in 1922 near Luxor in southern Egypt.

Allot of negative from&nbsp; a proud Black man&nbsp; criticizing another Black Man. The&nbsp;ancient &nbsp;Greeks, \Mediterraneans, Sumerains and etc &nbsp;were all from Black African Origins&nbsp; As a Black man, never&nbsp; identify or belittle your&nbsp;people. We are not the same. Need to research the Palemro Stome,&nbsp; Anu ,Badarian and <span class="st">Naqada Cultures and etc.</span></p>

<p>In my research, the ancient people of the Mediterraneans, Greece, Europe, Middle East, Syria, Libya and etc were from Africa origins. The Tuareg people are classified as tthe original Berbers. The Sea people were members of Asian origins and &nbsp;Indo-European members of the Kurgan and Corded cultures.The mass Into-European people migration into the south area , caused much destruction and interbreeding with of Black African population. The first wave&nbsp;of&nbsp;&nbsp;Asians migration consisted of the Sea people.</p>

<p>&nbsp;The era of Culture Cleansing and Culture Stealing. They had no civilized culture, so they adapted the culture of the people they invaded and claim it as theirs. King Menes was involed with civil wars in Egypt, he unitied the Upper and Lower Cataracts of Egypt. The Palmero Stone was a record of the First 5 dynasties of Egypt. The Palmero Stone, also mention the battles King Menes had with the Sea People.</p>

<p>Asian and European occupation of the seacoasts of North Africa was easy and first welcomed by the indigenous Black population as trading opportunities but then poor nomads started to flood the most fertile and accessible areas in North Africa.The sexual trafficking of Black women produced a new breed of Afro-Asians who were classed as white or Asian, but not as Black people.Struggles between&nbsp; Acnient Africans, Mulattoes and Asians in ancient times were frequent.</p>

<p>Blacks in Southern Ethiopia were hostile towards Afro-Asians, because they did consider them as true African people. Ancient Nubia, between the First and Sixth Cataracts&nbsp;are where Africans d&shy;eveloped the great civilization but invaders appropriated Africa&rsquo;s creations as their own(Nubians) did nt consider them to be true Africans they were a mixed breed of many races. To understand the truth need to research cultural cleansing, the invasion of the Sea people, Ptomely era European Pharaods.</p>

<p>Africans battled the invading Asians decade after decade and century after century until their resistance to conquest and enslavement extended for over four thousand years.Egypt once formed part of the north-eastern region of Ethiopia. The first people to be called Egyptians were half African, half-Asian who were largely hostile to their Black mothers. This attitude stemmed from an opportunistic desire to identify with and become part of the new power elite of the conquerors</p>
