You may recall being taught in school that Western (white) civilization is founded upon the ancient Greek civilization that seemed to suddenly appear. What European historians are trying to hide or deny is that the Greek civilization was primarily the offspring of the advanced Black African civilization of ancient Egypt that preceded it by thousands of years. Greek legends relate that Egyptian & Phoenician conquerors ruled all or parts of Greece until the 14th or 15th century B.C.

Answer 1

Your argument, that of the website you cite, would be more convincing were it not full of factual errors.

The ancient Egyptians called their country "kemet" not "kemu" nor did the term refer to people. Kemet translates to "black land" and refers to the fertile agricultural land on the banks of the Nile which was black in color, especially after the annual flooding of the Nile deposited silts on it. "Kemet" is frequently used in literary texts in opposition to the term "deshret" which translates as "red land" and refers to the desert. Both of the terms are always determined using a land sign, not a seated man or seated man and woman. The seated man or seated man or woman are used to refer to terms for people.

The most common of the several terms the Egyptians used to refer to Egyptian PEOPLE is retchenu (a poor rendering, but Yahoo doesn't exactly have a transliteration font) and has no link to terminology for color or complexion. The hieroglyphic signs include a bird (a lapwing).

Egyptians made wigs from wool, but they also made them from linen, from other natural plant fibers, and from human hair.

The "melanin content" issue is not a certainty and has been challenged on several levels by numerous scientists and historians.

It is NOT certain that the nose of the Sphinx was destroyed by Europeans. Sketches made in the 1730s, well before a large European military presence was established in Egypt show the nose of the Sphinx already missing.
The further accusation that Egyptian and other antiquities have been deliberately defaced by Europeans to hide "*******" features is absolutely unsupportable. It is not impossible that in a few (very few) cases this may have occurred, to make such an extraordinary accusation requires extraordinary evidence and the writer provides nothing of the kind. There is not a vast conspiracy to hide the "blackness" of the Egyptians.

It is true that there was a great deal of contact between ancient Greece and other cultures lying around the Mediterranean basin. The degree to which this cultural contact affected each of those cultures is unclear. What is clear is that despite that contact, many features of ancient Greek culture have clear continuity with earlier indigenous cultures in the area.

Answer 2

But then again, even if ancient Egypt was black, which I don't think it was, their civilization was based on the Mesopotamian civilization. Ancient Egyptians were definitely not white, there is no doubt about that. They were originally a race that resembled a mid point between arabs and ethiopians. In fact, there was a study that I will try to find, which states that current egyptians are on average 75-80% indigenous (for comparison, modern English people are around 70-80% native). So, you might imagine that ancient egyptians were just a little darker than modern Egyptians

Answer 3

Have you ever seen a Greek person? I think white racists only want to associate themselves with the Greeks because of their great accomplishments. Greeks sure as hell aren't "white." Neither are any Mediterranean people.

But that theory still leaves the Greeks a lot of time to develop a lot of culture on their own. Evidence says that they did. I wouldn't be surprised to find that the Greeks borrowed much from other cultures when they began their own, or that any of those cultures were from Africa.

Cheetah, Mate... You. Have. Serious. Issues...

I urge everyone to click on Cheetahs name and see all the questions he has asked.

This guy hates black people with a passion!!! =/

Has something happened to you, where maybe you've been attacked by a black man, and therefore blame the entire black race???

Or maybe its just the age old one... "Everywhere i look, i see a black person. they don't look like me..that scares me...i don't understand them.....................I HATE NGERS!!"

Listen I'm gonna give you this advice AGAIN.

Give up on this entire subject. Concentrate on what is good in your life. Trust me, you'll feel a whole lot better.

Take the chip off your shoulder, and dont believe everything you see in the media about black people.

Even black people got a problem with black people on the news.

I havent got one person in my black family, whos a drug dealer, pimp, gang banger....etc.

Its all media hype... and if you actually knew anyone who was black, your ignorant *** would know this already.

I keep trying to help you out, and you never make me your best answer!!!

Listen i believe everyone can change, don't be the stereotypical racist who cannot be reasoned with.

Push hate and anger aside, and all your so called lol (Wikipedia) facts aside.

If you don't do something about it soon, i can only imagine the next phase your gonna through....just dont kill no one =/

Good luck!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 5

Why are you such an unrelenting bigot? If you think it makes you appear clever or impressive, you're wrong.

I wonder what's going on in your life that you have such a need to constantly attack black people. A reasonably content person would feel no need to behave as you do.

Try taking some of that energy you're using to spew hatred and direct it towards changing whatever's making you so unhappy.

Answer 7

In all probability original man was black. The white race came as a result of interbreeding with an albino "type" species from Neptune. Other colors were a result of interbreeding with species from other planets.
The most recent alien was Julius Caesar whose son Octavian and grandson Jesus were also albino.
Earth was discovered by accident by Psioden while ona space exploratory mission from Neptune. Others followed in attempts to conquer earth from Psioden who had laid a claim on Earth as his personal property and paradise.
