Dear sir,
Thanks for your latest post.
However, you missed a few small details of huge importance, and hence your post is actually not factual and hence misses the point entirely.
Here, let me help you out with a few tips.
When you say “ancient Egypt”, it is important to keep a few things in mind to avoid misrepresenting the facts. I will use a similar analogy to draw some facts you are knowingly or unknowing missing out.
1) “Ancient North America” implies labels such as Anglo-Saxon, Italian, Dutch, French etc did not exist and would be entirely out of place in the discussion. Also place names such as New York, Philadelphia, Boston etc. did not exist and would also be entirely out of place in the discussion.
Hence, what would suffice and be acceptable ONLY as accurate historical research would be a narrative using the ACTUAL historical names and ethnonyms that existed way back in “Ancient North America”. You would agree that finding names such as Apache, Cherokee, Arapaho, Arikara etc. would be the correct standard in describing the peoples who inhabited those lands if the phrase “ancient” as we know it has any meaning.
Hence, a purported documentary subtly showing the Arapaho or the Anasazi as “household servants” to European looking peoples…while using place names such as Virginia and Maryland to prove that “slavery was non-existent in “ancient North America” would be quite hilarious, don’t you think so?
Even more this false historical narrative would sound more bogus and unreal when no mention is made of links between the “ancient North Americans” who migrated back and forth like the Aztecs, Mayas, Olmecs etc….and other inhabitants of the landmass now known as North America.
So, any discussion of “Ancient Egypt” has no place for Mamluks or their descendants, Ottomans and their descendants, the Ptolemies and their descendants, Mediterranean Arabs, Romans, French or British and their descendants…for the simple reason that these later peoples were simply not in the picture in “Ancient Egypt”. It is for the same reason that any discussion of “Ancient North America” would be a hilarious exercise when it shows a predominantly European cast, involving history seen entirely from a European perspective.
Here is a little tip you could use in ruffling up some historians feathers, the Levant and the Mediterranean peoples of ancient history were predominantly BLACK PEOPLES. The MAJORITY of the fair skinned peoples who bear those labels today are products of intermarriage between the BLACK NATIVES and the hordes who came from the far North, Eastern Europe and far Asia. A lot of documented ancient history is at loggerheads with DNA analysis of these peoples because the archaeological evidence does not match with popular narratives.
So sir, your narrative totally missed the point and hence is off the mark. Arabs as we know it was a non-existent label back then, same as all the popular ethnonyms and place names you used freely. No mention was made of the FACT that Ancient Egypt encompassed a far greater landmass than is the country now known as “modern Egypt”. Ancient Egypt extended to the places now known as Syria, Canaan, Palestine, Libya, Nubia, Sudan, all the way down to parts of Ethiopia. Ofcourse, the empire would shrink through different dynasties. There were indeed indentured servants and SLAVES that were used through out the empire, if you are not aware of this fact then you need to do further research.
I leave it to you to figure out for yourself that the definition of slavery back in “ancient Egypt” is starkly different from the modern perspective. For one, slaves back then were largely indentured servants and belonged to the households of their masters, also the majority of these indentured servants were largely prisoners of war and tributes paid by vassal states/cities. A cursory research into burial practices for starters will help you understand the sources of the servants who followed their masters and mistresses into the afterlife. Also, a little digging and a healthy skepticism of the popular narratives you are espousing will help clear this up for you.
2) Also telling is the subtle insistence on perpetuating the false narrative that black peoples were “slaves” and “household servants” to Arab looking white peoples in “ancient Egypt. Your “documentary” is littered with that subtle hint as a defacto assumption. I wont even mention the deliberate usage of whitewashed Egyptian sculptures and paintings totally misrepresenting the original negroid faces. Nothing could be farther from truth. Here is the fact you and other proponents of a non-existent “white Egypt” are running away from….ancient Egypt was a completely African phenomenon. Not Middle Eastern, Mediterranean or Far East or what ever non-African label is used in popular narratives.
A deliberate mixture of different time lines in Egypt’s history to hide the fact that different people’s at different times populated the land mass known as Egypt is also a telling point in dismissing fake historical narratives. For example, mixing up pictures of Ptolemaic Egypt with Roman Egypt, and mixing up Ottoman and Mamluk Egypt with the Egypt of the ACTUAL natives who inhabited those lands before the invaders who both intermarried and displaced them. This is the actual factual perspective you have to present to get any close to an accurate historical narrative.
We know who the ardent deniers and claimers of history that had nothing to do with them are.
We also know who stands to benefit from destroying ancient artifacts eloquently telling the story of the people who painstakingly preserved their history in sculpture, paintings and writing.
We also know where to go when we need to compare similarities in architecture, writing and culture where “ancient Egypt” is concerned. You and I both know the only geographical location containing as much pyramids, sculptures, paintings, temples, hieroglyphs and markers of anything recognized as “Egyptian” is to the South of Modern Egypt. No where else are temples, pyramids and writings found that so closely match what is obtained in your today’s Modern Egypt.
We also are aware of the ardent drive to disconnect an “upper” Egypt from a “lower” Egypt.
Even though the history of the two crowns of Upper and Lower Egypt is eloquently told in writing, painting, and sculpture without any vagueness, exaggeration or ambiguousness.
In summary sir, your narrative is found to be riddled with historical misrepresentations and is only a rehashing of popular biased views.
If you doubt me, check out this link for hundreds of visuals of what the rulers and servants of “Ancient Egypt” looked like before either the Assyrians, Macedonians, Romans, Mamluks, Albanians, Ottomans, French or British invaded, settled, drove out or intermarried with the natives.
The answers you and other popular narrators of Ancient Egypt’s history are running away from are in the above link. Scroll down if you will and look at the sculpted heads of kings, queens, nobles, soldiers, administrators, scribes, servants…ALL NATIVES OF ANCIENT EGYPT. Compare their skin tones, noses, faces, hair with those found in today’s tribes of Nubia, Sudan, Ethiopia, Somalia…all over East Africa. Kinky hair, wavy hair, curly hair, straight hair, flat, straight and hooked noses, fair skin, dark brown skin, brown skin, obsidian black skin…these are ALL PHYSIOLOGICAL ATTRIBUTES of African peoples still existing TODAY and descendants of those who called their land “the Black Land”.
Those faces can only belong to a people who WERE BOTH AFRICAN AND DARK SKINNED.
THESE PEOPLE you see sir, are the ACTUAL kings, queens, natives and SLAVES (read indentured servants) of ancient Egypt. NOT Arabized Turkish and Mongoloid looking men selling pale faced and fair skinned men and women.
I understand it can be a difficult pill to swallow for those who have been fed a globally accepted narrative that glorifies “white skin” and denigrates “black skin”.
But hey, how about I tell you that when the Turks, Asians and Mongoloids accepted Islam and started practising “Arab” culture, the Arabic language, writing, culture and religion were ALREADY fully formed and the Yemenites/Sabeans, Kushites and Canaanites they borrowed/adopted Arab “culture” from and later on displaced were these SAME DARK SKINNED peoples no one wants to acknowledge? Infact, these fair skinned newcomers ALL abandoned their native tongues, writings, religions and what not for the more highly advanced Kushite ones they encountered. The Greeks and Romans were equally fascinated by what they met and witnessed in Ancient Egypt. They all adopted and borrowed the architecture,art, burial practices and religion of Ancient Egypt. They left eloquent records largely ignored by popular historians such as you.
We know! We also know you KNOW who these Kushite peoples are. So no surprises here.
Of course you are free to continue with the parallel narrative that gives credence to such “documentaries” implying that faces like George Washington and Bill Clinton are actual descendants and representatives of “Ancient North Americans”.
