"Worse was to come. Zahi Hawass, secretary general of Egypt's Supreme Council of Antiquities (SCA) labeled the idea "pure fiction." Moreover, he disinvited Fletcher from future work in Egypt. Hawass explained this action in an article in the newspaper Al-Ahram: "There are more than 300 foreign expeditions currently working in Egypt, and they all follow the same guidelines. We grant concessions to any scholar affiliate to a scientific or educational institution, and it has long been accepted code of ethics that any discovery made during excavations should first be reported to the SCA. By going first to the press with what might be considered a great discovery, Dr. Fletcher broke the bond made by York University with the Egyptian authorities. And by putting out in the popular media what is considered by most scholars to be an unsound theory, Dr. Fletcher has broken the rules and therefore, at least until we have reviewed the situation with her university, she must be banned from working in Egypt." This action was attacked in a London Times article, prompting another response by Hawass in which serious questions were raised concerning Fletcher's training."

Question: Is Dr. Fletcher still banned from Egypt? What contribution can she still make in this great field?

You haven't been to Egypt or North Africa. You know they would call you abid . Now all I am asking is for photo-quality proof, like the Fayum portraits, showing that the Ancient Egyptians were Negroes. I implore you to go to Negroid sources, from any of the "ancient African civilizations"
Shouldn't be difficult to find same quality portraiture and written documentation from the same people returning to Zimbabwe or wherever and you don't have to depend on Europeans

Cancers or not, IDIOT, people of European descent and even the Chinese in tropical Singapore live longer than Negroes in the same region. Perhaps it is the melanin stink which shortens life.

@EuroCivilization Another thing.. Science has proven that ALL non africans including modern day pale arab egyptians had NEANDERTHAL ANCESTRY, did the AE's?.. lol or do you think NEANDERTHALS built pyramids also? Also egypt has been recorded as a desert since biblical times, the majority of the country, do deserts have a Med climate.. lol..

@EuroCivilization lol you foolish person, so you think the costal region, that thin strip applies to all egypt.. plus do you know what the average temperature of egypt is?.. Man you think the fayum paintings date from when, the PTOLEMY DYNASTY or older haha, these pale arabs are not even from that dynasty, they are 6th century invaders.. plus Diop was able to determine the melanine content from ancient dna and determine the AE's has SUPER NEGROID body plans. Where are you from?

IDIOT!! The bulk of Egyptians live in the Nile Basin which is basically the "Mediterranean climate" similar to coastal California

No doubt you will produce ancient Egyptian portraits painted at the same time as the Fayum paintings, but in some other "ancient African civilization" . Like you say, European historians should not be believed, especially when translated into American Negro dialects. . We need Negroid proof - Ancient Egyptian portraits painted by Africans, which no doubt, because of your stated Ancient African civilizations must exist by the thousands!

10% of egyptologists do not believe that today's Egyptians are the same people as the Ancient Egyptians - roughly the same proportion of the population who believe Elvis is still alive
