The portraits of Faiyum | Rafael Pérez Arroyo, Hymn to the Seven Hathor

[STARCHYLDGOD]

And I know this, due to my ethnicity background being part Italian (Greco-Roman).

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc There are African advance civilizations in Europe and in Africa. Check out the Dogon tribe and Yoruba tribe. Also check out Cretans of Greece, they were African Egyptians, The Moors built a high advance civilization in Spain, Portugal, Andorra, they built Castles, Homes, Bathrooms, Universities, Schools, Buildings etc. Also, there are the Etruscans of Rome, the African Indigenous people of Rome, Italy. That explains why Southern Italians are very dark skinned, especially the Sicilians.

[romanljc]

your a joke and you know the egyptian themselves in 3000 years never said they were black and they called the Nubians a bunch of savages as well there is not even one statue that looks black except one of black slaves with chains around there necks tuts tomb was full of them u could be a descedent of a slave or gotten there from Arab slave trade to like I said if blacks were capable of advance civilztion you would find it in the all black parts of Africa as well But u don't find shit there

[romanljc]

All we know from there writings is that Egyptians invaded and inslaved black people exloploided them for there gold also at times they used them as allies in war but the civilztion culture was not a black one there language is semtic language like the Arabs and Jews and obouvisly they got alot of there idears from mesoptania a much older civilztion as well that they traded with Like I said why is there know great old advance civilztion like that in the all black parts Africa

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc Yes dude, now I see you stepping up but too bad all your talks are a bunch of lies and I don't want to waste my time to put with your bullshit. First of all, Moors are not Arabs, they went to Europe along with the invasion of Arabs and they mixed with each other to have Arabic names. Secondly retard, South Italians are dark skinned, every Italian knows this fact including myself. They have dark olive and tanned skin and I know this because in my family, I have dark skinned relatives.

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc You can't read Egyptian hieroglyphics. So don't come with your bullshit stating that my ancestors enslaved people. In the biblical text it clearly says Mizraim is a child of Ham which is African not Semetic you fool. And I don't want to get into this biblical talk for it's nothing but a remake of the original Egyptian stories. The bible is nothing but written by the Greco-Romans. Don't come to me with this bullshit.

[romanljc]

@STARCHYLDGOD Ankhhaf Inty-shedu Kai and his children Egyptian scribe statues Amenemhet lll Thutmose lll Amenhotep lll Ramses ll khafre 4th dynasty Khafre menkaure both pharaohs builder of the first great pyamids of Giza clearly not black These are some of the oldist statues and even back then they did not look black My guess is you are very dumb or a bad lier or both why are black making statues that clearly look like whites and Arabs then lol your a joke

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc The photo of Ankhhaf is nothing but a painted art sculpture. Is that your proof? Hahaha. African Egyptian are Indigenous to Egypt. Caucasians are nothing but savages and homosexuals that tried to manipulate Ancient Egypt. There aren't any slaves in Egypt, so don't be calling my people slaves now. Not because I caught you, does not mean you can now claim the Southern part of Egypt as being slaves, liar. The Moors of Spain, Portugal and Andorra even kept white slaves as their mannequin.

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc If not European or Negroid, then what are they then? Don't tell me we looked like people from South India. But even the people from South India from the Harappan Civilization, their lineage is African. You can't fool me, I know too much about my heritage. If you google Sahure, who is the second King of Egypt, you will see an African face. Also Ankhhaf's statue is just a sculpture, an art figure not his actual facial feature, you fool. Keep on lying dude; it will not get you anywhere.

[STARCHYLDGOD]

I said it once and I'll say it again. This video portrays Greco-Romans not real Egyptians.

[romanljc]

Idependent labs proved tut not a negroid tut was not black !!

National Geographic also gave Tutankhamun's CT data to a U.S. forensic team, who were to work "blind"not knowing who the subject was. Their findings validated the French team's conclusions. And their plaster cast, pictured here, turned out remarkably similar to the silicone-skinned bust. He was not black !! You can't make up bullisit about a whole country just because you feel ashamed to be black science is blind to race

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc You might not see the bias you have against Nubians. It clearly shines like the mid day sun. I do not know if it is out of spite or it is the culture you grew up around. But to say you have knowledge about Kemet-Egyptian history and none of it comes from Africans .Is the same as saying you know Mayan-Mexican history but never checked with a Mayan historian to confirm this.

[romanljc]

@STARCHYLDGOD I don't care one way or the other I just listen to the experts and read books on Egypt and look at there statues and drawings writings Dr. Zahi Hawass, the current Secretary General of the Egyptian Supreme Council of Antiquities, has stated that "The portrayal of ancient Egyptian civilization as black has no element of truth to it;" and that "Ancient Egyptians are not Arabs and are not Africans despite the fact that Egypt is in Africa I guess u no more then him

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc lol Dr. Zahi Hawass, he's a racist scum bag. Half of the things he say is not even based on truth. As evidence has emerged that he has been lying to the Egyptian public, and the world! He's not even a Native Egyptian, again like I said before, you cannot truly know Chinese history until you research it from the Chinese point of view not the point of view of an Englishmen or Euro-clown. The same is with African studies. You need to learn it from a Native Egyptian perspective.

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc I don't know where you got the info of me feeling ashamed to be African. Anyways, get your facts right instead of making up stories to fulfill your needs.

[romanljc]

@STARCHYLDGOD The greeks called blacks burnt face they did not call egyptian that name Herodotus specifically uses it for all the lands south of Egypt including Sudan and modern Ethiopia. Αἰθιοπία, Aithiopia is from Αἰθίοψ, Aithiops, ‘an Ethiopian’, derived in turn from Greek words meaning "of burned face". Just like today south of Egypt you find the blacks nothing has changed Egyptian were never black logically if even then they were not black DNA is not the same as blacks ether

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc Bullshit! You're such a liar. The Ancient Greek historian Herodotus, who visited Egypt in the 5th century B.C.E., saw the Egyptians face to face and described them as being black-skinned with wooly hair.

[romanljc]

@STARCHYLDGOD Also FBI use skull shape to tell race it's very accurate Or they would not be using it they also use facile reconstitution like they did on tut and other mummys all which showed they looked middle eastern 3 independent labs did the test all showed the same face it was that of a middle eastern looking person not a Negroid u can debate skin tone but he still would not be a Negroid they have tested many mummies all look middle eastern not Negroid 

[STARCHYLDGOD]

I actually do know as a fact that Coptics are also in Ethiopia. But they are also in Egypt. But I doubt our lineage is the same. I mean a lot of us Copts in Egypt are mixed with Greco-Roman. And some of us Copts are just pure Egyptian without being mixed. Copts in Ethiopia does not look like us Copts in Egypt. Our facial features are totally indifferent.

[STARCHYLDGOD]

The Egyptians in the North, we are mixed with many invaders but in the South of Egypt. Their blood is pure and that's a fact.

[STARCHYLDGOD]

Barack Obama is from a Saharan tribe in Kenya through his father's lineage. He is also connected to Egypt since he has Saharan blood running through his veins.

[nakinilerak]

Ahem - what's the gentleman at 5.10 holding in his hand?

[minuicch]

@nakinilerak

Is not what you are thinking...Is just a ritual form of bread.

[Suilyaniz]

This is incredible. To see the faces of ancient people who knew the world when it was a much diferent place. The past is extraordinary.

[STARCHYLDGOD]

The guy in the second photo is a Greek person whose ancestors were mixed in with Egyptian but he's a pure Greco and never was an Egyptian to begin with.

[STARCHYLDGOD]

This video portrays Greco-Romans not real Egyptians.

[romanljc]

@STARCHYLDGOD Yea to bad that happend about 90,000 years ago when blacks left east Africa and turned in to whites that's way before Egypt by then they looked like modern egyptians

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc 90,000 years ago? What are you talking about??? And still today you see millions and/or billions of East Africans still living in East Africa today. The population of East Africa today is still Indigenous.

[romanljc]

@STARCHYLDGOD @STARCHYLDGOD I thought you were talking about Egypt now we are talking about east African well to bad for them to because dna of east Africans is not pure black ether they have dna from middle east that got there from neolthic times thats over 10,000 years ago but at least they still have black skin

[romanljc]

not all east Africans of corse

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc Does it really make a difference of the East Africans whether they were mix or not? I don't think so because it didn't matter to the Caucasian race when they were enslaving and kidnapping innocent people in East Africa to the continent Americas.

[romanljc]

My point is when blacks mix with none blacks the kids still look. All black just to famus examples tiger woods and Obama both are half none black but u would never no it there is no proof EgyptianS changed to caucasion looking from mixing that is just the way they look also read the indigenous people of North Africa are not of subsaharan origin. They are Berbers of Neolithic Middle Eastern origin. Please see this article from the American Journal of Human Genetics.

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc The Ancient Egyptians (Kemetians) are of Saharan origin. I'm a Native Coptic Egyptian. I know my heritage and roots. As for Tiger Woods, he could not be in this category because he is of African American, Chinese, and Native American ancestry. As for Barack Obama, his skin still shows darkness. He's a brown skinned person. That article you read is completely wrong. If you go to South of Egypt, you will see the Native Egyptians - whom British people claim they're Nubians.

[romanljc]

@STARCHYLDGOD Lol stop lieing your a Coptic ethiopean you mean or convert lol nice try

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc Why would I lie about my origin? I am not a Coptic Ethiopian. I'm Egyptian. Period!

[romanljc]

@STARCHYLDGOD Really so have you been to the head Coptic church in Giza Egypt 

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc Yes, I have. :) Why you ask?

[romanljc]

@STARCHYLDGOD Because the head Coptic church is not in Giza it's in Cairo Egypt that's why you are lying lol I just tested a real Egyptian copt would no that like I ask a Italian roman cathlic were the head church is they no it's the Vatican rome lol Your lying lol Real Egyptian copts are not black they look like the rest of the Egyptians lol

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc Actually one of the big churches in Giza is Saint Mark. I thought you were asking about that church. Us Copts are Native Egyptian mixed with Greco-Roman. What do you mean we are not mix with Africans? I am Copt and proud of my roots. My parents are from Alexandria. Your nothing but a Caucasian-Roman. You wouldn't know.

[romanljc]

Lol I cached you lying just admit it lol I ask you the head of Coptic church you should no that's in Cairo were the Coptic pope is lol hahaha your telling me you did not no that and your from Egypt and a copt yea ok lier there is more then one saint marks the head church is in Cairo it's called saint marks too I new you would fuck up because if you google it does not come up since the head church is not in Giza hahaha Lier lier lier lol Nice try Egyptian Copts are not black Or Arabs

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc How am I lying? One of the churches called St. Mark is in Giza. I know it very clearly. You can google all you want. I know of this church as I said its in Giza. And us Copts, we are mix with Egyptian and Greco-Roman. I also did not say Copts are mixed with Arab. So I don't know why you would mention Arab. Keep calling me a liar. I know who I am. I know my lineage. I'm a proud Egyptian and you're not one so you shouldn't be talking.

[romanljc]

@STARCHYLDGOD why the fuck would I want to be Egyptian im just telling u they were not black dont no what your story is why u lying about be a copt when I already know u lied about it 

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc You claim to know, so perhaps you do want to be Egyptian. I am a Copt. Why would I lie about being a Copt? What for? To claim someone else's identity is not pleasant and that is what you are doing. Just because you asked about the main church and I said St. Mark is in Giza, which it is truly in Giza. Now that makes me a liar? No. St Mark is in Giza and that's a fact. Keep doing your research on Google. You still don't know the true facts about Egyptians. We are not of Caucasian origin.

[romanljc]

@STARCHYLDGOD you did lie I ask you if you have been to the head. Of the coptic church in giza there is no head church in giza its in Cairo how could you not no that and you even said u been there hahaha

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc I did not lie. When you said Coptic church. I thought you meant the one in Giza. But think whatever you want. I don't care. I know my roots and very proud of it. :)

[romanljc]

@STARCHYLDGOD You keep changing you mind I thought you said these people were Greeks and Romans now there African and Coptic this is before there was a Coptic church these people worshiped the ancient egyptisn gods they were not Christians

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc I said us Copts are mix with Greco-Roman and African Egyptian and some of them are also Greco-Romans since their tradition as clearly seen is a Greco-Roman style. This portrait of the Faiyum is during the Coptic period.

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc The style dressing in this video is not even Egyptian tradition clothing. It's more Greco-Roman. Which is why I say us Copts in North Egypt are mixed with Greco-Roman and that's a true fact. Care to misjudge all you want but your not one of us so you can't claim anything anyways, because what you say is wrong, truly wrong.

[romanljc]

@STARCHYLDGOD I still don't no what u r saying u think they were originally black something stupid like that I guess hahahaha no coptic would say that lol your lieing Coptic don't have same DNA as blacks

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc It clearly shows at 2:34 an African. And the person beside him on the left is mix. Us Copts are a mixture of Greco-Roman. As I said to you before, you will see some Copts that are Greco-Romans and Copts that are mix with Greco-Roman and Copts that are pure African like the ones you see in Ethiopia. What do you mean by no Copts would admit having African ancestry? I am a Coptic myself and I know plenty of people that are Copts and they always mention their African Egyptian ancestry.

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc To make it clear, when I say us Copts. I am not talking about the ones in this video who are mainly Greco-Romans. But in general, there are people in Egypt that are Copts but are not Greco-Roman just either mix with Greco-Roman as well are pure African Egyptian.

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc Anthropologist, Count Constatin de Volney, a French scholar who visited Egypt between 1783-1785, remarked that the ancient Egyptians were true Negroes of the same type as all spoke about the race of the Egyptians that produced the Pharaohs.

[romanljc]

@STARCHYLDGOD Egypt is on a sub tropical latitude just like east coast of USA souther europe Iran Iraq Pakistan look it up that means the sun is not that strong there people native to those latitudes are not black anywhere in world so why would you think Egyptian were black black skin is a tropical adaptation to protect from uv sun light in the tropics not sub tropics proof get over it Nubians black because they lived more south in the tropics 

[romanljc]

@STARCHYLDGOD Attempts to extract ancient DNA or aDNA from Ancient Egyptian remains have yielded mainly Eurasian DNA types from the Dakleh Oasis cemetery site (from Southern Egypt), and they show a considerable increase in the amount of sub Saharan mitchondrial DNA over the past 2,000 years that means it was the blacks who migrated to egypted not the other way around as there are no native blacks in north Africa 

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc He later paid tribute to Herodotus' discovery when he said: "The ancient Egyptians were true Negroes of the same type as all native born Africans. That being so, we can see how their blood mixed for several centuries with that of the Romans and Greeks, must have lost the intensity of its original color, while retaining none the less the imprint of its original mold." As I told you plenty of times before, the only reason why us Northern Egyptians are light skinned is due to the mixing.

[romanljc]

@STARCHYLDGOD In your fantisis

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc WTF is Fantisis? Go learn how to spell dude. And most definitely you were a fantasy, since you were a "good" liar to begin with.

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc I mean seriously, you cannot truly know Chinese history until you research it from the Chinese point of view not the point of view of an Englishmen the same is with African studies.

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc Becareful where you get your teachings from because Dr. Zahi Hawass was sentence to jail for a year for fraud teaching.

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc I just read your other information. Are you trying to tell me that the Caucasian race who came from the Caucasus Mountains in the caves, came to Egypt and built the pyramids and other architecture including the Egyptian Hieroglyphics? Are you a god damn fool? The Greeks didn't even have soap to bath with, only us African Egyptians were the purest and advance race of all nations. You're a true bullshit talker.

[romanljc]

@STARCHYLDGOD Look up Ankhhaf does he look black to you Why do you idiot Africanist keep up this rediculus game

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc East Africans are the most darkest people of all African nation. Even if a Caucasian blood mix within that ethnicity, that person will still be an African. You talk about DNA proves Caucasian blood in East Africans, that happen many years ago during the invasion of the Caucasian race. But yet still during American slavery, the same Caucasian race kidnapped and raped East Africans and brought them to the continent Americas.

[STARCHYLDGOD]

Like I've stated before this video purely shows non-Egyptians.

[romanljc]

@STARCHYLDGOD Some are egyptians some are Greek but none are blacks

[STARCHYLDGOD]

@romanljc You are right, some are Egyptians meaning modern Egyptians. But none are Kemetians - African Native Egyptians! I see none too. Too bad, they all must have gotten mixed with too many Caucasian blood.

[shariefwat]

See My Uploads for more on black ancient Egypt.

You will see things like the the mummy of Thutmose the 1st with coarse wooly hair in a 1930s published book by Sir W M Flinders Petrie (renowned Egyptologist of the day) . He's now bald. Or the coal black (always in art) grandmother of renowned Queen Hatshepsut.

[roudy1689]

how do there replicate the music? is there ancient sheet music? or is it a guess at melody etc.

[minuicch]

@roudy1689

You can find the answer above in "INFORMATION" about this video...

[roudy1689]

@minuicch "INFORMATION" isn't on the screen, it's a drop down menu

[roudy1689]

@minuicch "INFORMATION" isn't on the screen, it's a drop down menu. great music

[STARCHYLDGOD]

Obviously these portraits are Greco-Romans and not physically Egyptians. You can tell by the red and white robes and facial features which is not of Egyptian but of Greco-Romans. I'm a Coptic a native Egyptian. I know how my ancestors looked and we did not look like this.

[pitotipp]

@STARCHYLDGOD

no! some of them are as well Egyptians !

[pitotipp]

Thanks

[Meridiuso]

WOW WHAT THE MUSIC NAME



[terrypond6]

I think this is the most beautiful music I've heard in all my almost 70 years. How

hauntingly beautiful. Even the drums in the back ground sound ancient.

[bumbumbum43]

the one at 8:40 looks like jennifer aniston

[katievhoneychurch]

I'm amazed by how mixed they look ,I'm mixed race and look a great deal more european than them.

[mircoseli]

bello



[Bla31n]

It's my guess that the art presented here influenced the icons of the Orthodox Church.

[Gonzoidzz]

True faces of pre Christian Egypt.

[Bla31n]

How very odd that this hymn seems to me similar to Oriental music.

[EgyptianB0ss]

nice video...except arnt these all hellenistic people (greco roman ) people living in egypt at that time aorund 1st century???....

[eliskander]

beautiful.

[pharaonicprincess]

LOL at 3:00 it looks like a miserable version of george bush haha awesome video though

[Nickidewbear]

Question: Why did so many of them die so young, and were any of them Christians or Messianic Jews, or even non-Messianic Jews? (I'm Jewish, and I don't want to distinguish between "Christians" and "Jews" as though no Jew can be a Christian, or vice versa.).

[minuicch]

They died so young because at their time the life expectations was very limited. They date to the Roman period, from the late 1st century BC to the middle of the second century AD. They were neither Christians nor Jews. During the Roman rule of Egypt, much of the population of Faiyum was made-up of either Hellenized Egyptians or people of mixed Egyptian-Greek origins, cultures and religion.

[PataponRose]

Perhaps they didn't all die so young but they had their portraits painted in the primes of their lives because of the Ancient Egyptian belief that the depiction of the body accompanies one into the afterlife so obviously they would want the younger versions of their bodies.

Beautiful art.

[baalhaophanim]

@minuicch No morían necesariamente j´´ovenes, el retrato se pintaba en la flor de la edad y se conservaba hasta el momento de la muerte que podia sobrevenir mucho despues, y se colocaba el retrato para que ealma lograra la inmortalidad en su akmé, su grado mas alto de salud

[arunah11]

@Nickidewbear

They did not necessarily die very young... The portraits were painted during their life-time, exhibited on the wall of the reception room and LATER, fixed on their mummy.

You can have an eighty year-old body adorned with a forty-year old portrait...

[mavrothalassa]

Absolument fascinants tous les portraits.....des regards qui sont restes a regarder l'eternite!!!

[2xmi]

Grazie per la resposta, é una grande emozione la prestazza en respondermi.

[2xmi]

Excelente, son mis retratos favoritos de una atemporalidad y una modrenidad única. ¿Se sabe quién los pintó? Una maravilla. Felicidades por el video, gracias.

[minuicch]

Muchas Gracias!

Creo que los autores de las pinturas son más de uno y que son desconocidos...

[Lugarurmsr]

Thank you pictures can speak One thousand words.

[eliopoulosgiannis]

Very nice video, excellent music.

[minuicch]

Grazie a te per l'apprezzamento...

[shivabel]

La bellezza di questi ritratti lascia davvero senza fiato!....Alcuni sembrano addirittura contemporanei, degni dei maggiori pittori dell'Ottocento e Novecento, grazie per le emozioni che mi hai dato.
