DNA resolves some mystery on King Tut

DNA testing has unraveled some of the mystery surrounding the birth and death of pharaoh king Tutenkhamun, revealing his father was a famed monotheistic king and ruling out Nefertiti as his mother. The research, lead by Egypt's antiquities chief Zahi Hawass, showed the pharoah died of malaria after suffering a fall, putting to rest the theory that the enigmatic boy-king was murdered.Duration: 01:52

@takfam07 I dont care what you say.. you are a clown. you have not answered any academic questions put to you. You beghave like you have some mental disorder. If you want to debate this issue properly post and converse in an academic forum and stop your utter childlike stupidity and repetitive non-learning behaviour. You're no expert on ancient Africa, you miss the basics, and you even claimed to be a Harvard Graduate. Aspergers fool, trying to curve fit data to your emotional beliefs

@DEFACTO9 Caucasoids: Benazir Bhutto. Saddam Hussein. Osama Bin Laden. Mahatma Ghandi. None of them were "white." But they WERE Caucasoids. NOT Negroids. (And each one of them was mighty pleased about that, I'm sure!).

YES there was a mass migration of CAUCASOIDS into Egypt--well before any Negroids were brought there as slaves.

"Around 39,000-52,000 years ago, the western Asian branch spread radially, bringing Caucasians to North Africa." Maca-Meyer, et al. 2001 (Molak; 2008 )

@takfam07 Phwahahahahahahahahahahahaaaaa Havard Graduate fake! Look at you splitting hairs..Herodotus ACTUALLY SAID "it is certain that the natives of the country are black with the heat" . Now fuck off trying to tell me this means Caucasoid. Phwahahahahahahahahaaa . what is more, before the Ptolemics who NEVER BUILT A SINGLE PYRAMID and ruled as the LAST and ONLY white RULERS of a 10,000year long dynasty, WHERE IS THE MASS MIGRATION OF WHITES INTO THE REGION? YOURE no AFRICAN EXPERT!

[takfam07]

@DEFACTO9 No Herodotus isn't a liar. AFROCENTRICS are liars. Because Herodotus never said Egyptians had "black skin and woolly hair." His actual translation is "DARK skin and CURLY hair." Suddenly, this goes from describing Negroes--to describing every other swarthy Mediterranean person. Which is what Egyptians were.

And I got this actual translation from my Harvard Classics Professor, Gregory Nagy.

And yes, the mummies clearly indicate Caucasoid people. You can't hide Negritude.

@takfam07 are you a clown? your looking at desecrated mummies dehydrated and reduced over time with the darkest looking skins ever seen and you say that you are a Havard Graduate? Phwahahahahahahahaahahahhahaa Havard my ass. your inferences are childlike and full of racist bigotry. Herodotus quotes on Ancient Egypt on e3xplaining the theories regarding the Nile flows said "

it is certain that the natives of the country are black with the heat"

Is Herodotus a liar? you fucking fool

@takfam07 So his hair was brown? That's what you ignored the detailed research results that I asked that you look up for? This is one of the worst videos I've ever seen. Henna has been used as a hair dye in that region of Afrika for millenia. Red & blonde are common colors that they used then & still do today. Their language was Afrikan, as was the writing, their sciences, culture, their Gods, their dna, their hair (according to trichometers), & their geographical location. Why so emotional?

[takfam07]

@firstladyshine By the way, here's an excellent video of Egyptian mummies, which also includes Tiye:

watch?v=qOtfTh8YF_I ("Were the Ancient Egyptians Black")

Now--looking at those mummies, can you deny that most of them were decidedly NON-Negroid?

[takfam07]

@firstladyshine "The anthropological study and the microscopic analysis of hair, carried out by four laboratories: Judiciary Medecine (Professor Ceccaldi), Société L'Oréal, Atomic Energy Commission, and Institut Textile de France showed that Ramesses II was a 'leucoderm,' that is a fair-skinned man, near to the Prehistoric and Antiquity Mediterraneans, or briefly, of the Berber of Africa." [Balout, et al. (1985) 383].

[firstladyshine]

@takfam07 I was just saying that chemicals can change your hair texture & that I have even seen it happen in a couple of old people with severe illnesses,& were close to death. & how the f#@ would you know anyway?

Search for trichometer results on mummies. You'll find links to info regarding mummy hair color & texture, which was not at all caucasian. This info is ignored by the "accepted" white supremecist views on Egypt. Tiye looks nothing like Michelle?.... that's a lie. Did you even look?

[takfam07]

@firstladyshine But you can compare a Caucasian mummy to a black mummy. The famous one of the Nubian prince shows a clearly Negroid person--4,000 years in a mummified state cannot erase the telltale Bantu features. Whereas Tiye is clearly Caucasoid, as is Seti, Ramesses II, and Hatsepshut. It is preposterous to conclude they were Negro. Tiye was Eurasian, she looked nothing like Michele Obama. And no, the process of dying does NOT alter the genetic instructions for Negro hair to be nappy.
