We have no claim to Ancient Egypt

Tropical features?
North East Africa is mostly semi dessert, dry and arid.

I meant elongated features, obviously

 

[Apollo]

Tropical feature is a nice way of saying Sub Saharan features. And even though Somalia/North East Africa is semi desert, we have tropically adapted limbs and so on.

Heat adapted, not tropic adapted.

Tropics adapted are Mbuti & Andamanese bodies.

Should’ve said that then.

Don't bother with these people walaal. The Ancient Egyptians themselves clearly identified with Black Horn Africans when they came to the Land of Punt. None of them have even mentioned this important fact. Why would the Ancient Egyptians identify with a people that were supposedly a different race than them and paint themselves darker than Berbers/Asiatics?

Just leave these delusional people be.

How the Egyptians depicted Cushites (Somalis):

But according to you, these blick Africans:

Are supposed to represent our modern-day cousins in Southern Egypt, who look more like us:

Are you serious?

Nubians to the Ancient Egyptians=Nilotes.

How about Fur (darfurians). Do you think they’re related to any/both of them? If so then why is it so far fetched to you

What on earth are you talking about? Punt and Ancient Egypt worshipped the same God and were trading partners, the relationship ended there. They didn’t “identify” themselves with us or believe we were the same people. Stop spreading B.S.

This is how they depicted themselves fighting against the Asiatic Hyksos.

The entire hypothesis for “Black Egypt” rests in pictures and the misinterpretation of Ancient Greek/Roman texts. Sad.

In 2013, Terrazas et al. conducted a comparative craniometric analysis of Dynastic Egyptian skulls with ancient and recent crania from other parts of Africa, and found that the ancient Egyptians were morphologically closest to modern Afroasiatic-speaking populations from the Horn of Africa.

Or is this Afrocentric too?

Interesting how anything that supports a more southerly hypothesis for the ancient Egyptians is automatically Afro centric yet almost all your information you accept so long as it doesnt support an native African origin.

Ironic

God forbid I quote Keita, an authority accepted by all, just because he is black. Ill save you the heartbreak

They are autosomally Nilotic similar to the South Sudanese.

Only the Toubou of Northern Chad have large amounts of Afro-Asiatic autosomal admixture in that part of the world.

Fob.

Ancient Egypt is overrated. The Ancient Greeks were more impressive, especially when it came to mathematics and philosophy.

All the Ancient Egyptians did was create massive monuments, but no major sociopolitical/economic/scientific progress.

Quite disingenuous, aren’t you?

Let me bold the part you left out on purpose:

In 2013, Terrazas et al. conducted a comparative craniometric analysis of Dynastic Egyptian skulls with ancient and recent crania from other parts of Africa, and found that the ancient Egyptians were morphologically closest to modern Afroasiatic-speaking populations from the Horn of Africa. Both of these fossil series possessed Middle Eastern affinities and were distinct from the analyzed prehistoric crania of North Africa and the Horn region, including the Pleistocene Rabat skull, Herto Homo sapiens idaltu fossil and Early Holocene Kef Oum Touiza skeleton. The scientists suggest that this may indicate that the Afroasiatic-speaking groups settled in the area during a later epoch, having possibly arrived from the Middle East.

The bit you highlighted is actually a Wikipedia edit

Rn on Twitter Blacks are claiming Cleopatra and want Lupita not Angelia Jolie to play the ethnic Greek/Macedonian incestious royalty in a upcoming movie.

Exactly. Moses would have blended in with present day Somalis, not olive-skinned Arabs who would have gladly called him an abeed today.

And this dude @Grant just proved my point. Why did the Ancient Egyptians draw themselves darker than Libyans and 'Asiatics' who many here are trying to say that they would have looked alike?

Libyans:

Ancient Libyan:

'Asiatic' Semites (Mizrahi Jews), who are the same Semitic race:

Nubians were Dinkas. Look how extremely dark they are with puffed black lips.

Ancient Egyptians clearly painted themselves darker than the ancient Libyan Berbers, but lighter than the Nilotes down south. Many people here say that Libyans are the same race as the Ancient Egyptians. If so, why did the Egyptians themselves make such a distinction with their skin color?

Mashallah. The Ancient Egyptians instead clearly claimed my black ancestors when they visited the Land of Punt. Here is them on expedition to meet my people at the Land of Gods and Ancestors:

You should include photos of the Copts, who best represent the ancient Egyptians genetically:

Dude, this conversation is over. I don't care anymore. These arabs can have Ancient Egypt. It wasn't even that cool of an empire. Them niggas only built a few dusty structures anyways.

@Apollo is right. There are way cooler empires out there.

They look more like the pictures of the libyans and Asiatics YOU posted rather than the Egyptians.

Why would you conveniently ignore a pic you posted. What is your explanation of the big difference in colour between the libyans,Asiatics and ancient Egyptians?
