Undeniable proof that the ancient egyptians were BLACK.

This truth is being denied and covered up by racists.

When you assert that a culture was a specific colour that they weren't, that makes you the racist buddy.
which means your black life doesn't matter...

Yeah, it's a cover up false flag conspiracy, dude... everyone is a racist and will never admit that the ancient Egyptians were in fact green Leopards.

Ancient Green Leopard Egyptian Lives Matter !!

So they were black and owned a bunch of white Jewish slaves. Guess that throws a monkey wrench in the slave argument.

Actually, Egypt was not just one country but two (Upper Egypt and Lower Egypt). That is why you see both the Cobra (Uraeus) and Vulture (Nehhbet) on the pharaoh's crown. Using both on the crown represented the unity of Upper and Lower Egypt.

Upper Egypt was the region between Lower Egypt and Nubia.

from wikipedia "In the New Kingdom, Nubians and Egyptians were often so closely related that some scholars[clarification needed] consider them virtually indistinguishable, as the two cultures melded and mixed together."

And at various times Nubia revolted and broke away from Egypt. During the Intermediate periods, Egypt was under several different regional pharaohs.

And Nubia is part of Upper Egypt.

Egypt was multicultural.

en.wikipedia.org...

A simple Wikipedia search would of shown that. I know it's not the best source. But it's readily available to everyone.

The genetic history of the demographics of Egypt reflects Egypt's geographical location at the crossroads of several major cultural areas: Northeast Africa, Northwest Africa, the Sahara, Sub-Saharan Africa, the Middle East, and the Mediterranean.

In general, various DNA studies have found that the gene frequencies of modern Egyptian populations are intermediate between those of the Middle East, the Horn of Africa, southern Europe and Sub-Saharan Africa,[1] though NRY frequency distributions of the modern Egyptian population appear to be substantially more similar to those of the Middle East than to any Sub-Saharan African or European population, suggesting a substantially larger Middle Eastern genetic component.[2][3][3][4][5][6][7]

I imagine this post should go in the HOAX bin.

I quoted the same article that you did and it says a LOT more than that.

t is now largely agreed that Dynastic Egyptians were indigenous to the Nile area. About 5,000 years ago, the Sahara area dried out, and part of the indigenous Saharan population retreated east towards the Nile Valley. In addition, peoples from the Middle East entered the Nile Valley, bringing with them wheat, barley, sheep, goats, and possibly cattle.[18] Dynastic Egyptians referred to their country as "The Two Lands". During the Predynastic period (about 4800 to 4300BC), the Merimde culture flourished in the northern part of Egypt (Lower Egypt).[19] This culture, among others, has links to the Levant in the Middle East.[20][21] The pottery of the later Buto Maadi culture, best known from the site at Maadi near Cairo, also shows connections to the southern Levant as well.[22] In the southern part of Egypt (Upper Egypt), the predynastic Badarian culture was followed by the Naqada culture. These people seem to be more closely related to the Nubians than with northern Egyptians.[23][24]

Hmmm...

prove you aren't a racist, take a look at this picture from Egyptians and point out the Egyptians..


Bet you can't

The scientist at the end of this video you posted talks about Egypt being a hodge podge of races, much like other posters here, yet you say this video disputes their discussion. Are you trying to say that you believe that there was never any middle eastern or Mediterranean influence in ancient Egyptian racial makeup at all? Given the location of Egypt and it's importance in trade in ancient times, it seems reasonable to think that the makeup was multiracial.

Egypt was multicultural.

Exactly.
The empire covered a lot of territory.

A 3,500-year-old mummified woman’s head shows signs of a skin condition from bleaching. The woman may have been prominent in Egyptian society and was 20 to 25 years old when she died, researchers report. The identity of the woman is not known, but tiny nodules under her cheeks and on the back of her neck resemble a skin disorder known today as exogenous ochronosis. Despina Moissidou, a Greek anthropologist, told Discovery News that “such dermatosis is caused by the extensive use of skin-bleaching cosmetics.”

Ancient Origins
Both sides of this argument please feel free to use skin bleaching to prove whatever.

More irrefutable proof that the ancient Egyptians were Black.

This truth is being denied and covered up by racists.

The artwork with princess kimset (sp?) is very telling. Not to say all Egyptians look like this, but books made by Europeans have her looking very White. Like most pictures of Jesus I have ever seen. He must have at least had a tan, unless he stayed in the house all the time.

Secretboss, interesting handle. Is it like secretbossman as in you are a white guy stirring up more division?

Ancient Egyptians were mostly Leopards.

Some also had bird and cat heads. They were a colorful group of people.

The upper kingdom were Nubians (kingdom to the south).

The lower kingdom was mixed between Asiatic, Semitic, Nubian, and others.

I guess the OP believes anything non-white, is black.

a reply to: reldra

absolutely.

However the main thrust of my point was that, Egypt as a major trading hub, was multi cultural.

There was no one race. But many that were Egyptian.

And when you dig down deep you see that.

I hope they invent a time machine so I can go back and get busy with a bird head chick.
Cat head chicks?.... not so much.

The pyramids and culture of egypt are pre dynastic in origin.

In fact they are most likely pre 12,800 years ago cataclysmic event whatever it was.

but they were definitely not white with blue eyes right?
is that the same for Jesus and his disciples and every biblical figure or Koran?
job and Noah etc, didn't have blonde hair, blue eyes or did they?

I wonder why Christian Asians don't represent Jesus with Asian features.


pum tum pummm... dramatic reveeeerb!

If by "black" you mean African, of course a lot of them were...still are too. Logic and simple common sense would suggest that if you simply look at a map. They weren't all African though...Egypt was quite a melting pot. But none of this is news, and nothing has been "covered up"; the information is available to everyone and has been for quite a long while.

Your title conveys surprise/awe at the idea that "black" Egyptians exist. Did you think that only one skin color was allowed per civilization back then? Where was it exactly that you were taught such a thing? One google search would net you tons of images and data that prove otherwise.

Nice try though, with the racial overtones. It seems the new kids can't wait to hop right on the Hyperbole Express these days. Nothing but deliberately incendiary click-bait.

So looking at stone sculptures proves they were black? Am I missing something here? Where is this undeniable proof? Pathetic.
