  • @BigPreme Why trying to say too much when the guy in the video say things as they are with no shame ?. BLACK AFRICANS BUILD THAT CIVILIZATION. Period

  • Part D: (super negro) If the ancient Egyptians' limb proportions were like those of tropical Africans rather than subtropical peoples like the San, that implies that their ancestors must been relatively recent migrants to subtropical Egypt from a truly tropical area, such as tropical sub-Saharan Africa.

  • Part C: (super negro) This is especially significant because even though we think of Egypt as a hot place, it is not truly tropical (it cools off during nighttime and winter). Populations living in subtropical desert climates similar to those of Egypt, such as the San of southwestern Africa, normally have limb proportions intermediate to those of Europeans and tropical populations (Trinkaus 1981).

  • Part B: (super negro) Measurements of ancient Egyptian skeletons has shown that their limb proportions were within the range of tropical African populations (Zakrzewski 2003), and sometimes their limbs were proportionately longer than those of some tropical Africans, leading Robins and Shute (1986) to call them "super-Negroid".

  • Part A: (super negro) Another line of evidence showing a relationship between ancient Egyptians and populations from tropical Africa concerns the skeleton beyond the skull, specifically the proportions of the limbs. Tropical African populations have proportionately longer limbs than European or Asian populations, because longer limbs dissipate heat more easily.

  • @BigPreme So you care to tell me where you learned Arabic? Because I don't believe you speak it. عتقد حقا ان كنت حصلت على هذه اللغة من الكمبيوتر. لا أعتقد أن أي شيء تقوله، لأنك تكذب لتناسب جدول الأعمال الخاص. وهو بالنسبة لي ، هو مثير للشفقة.

  • @BigPreme Also, in Siwa, there are people that are not Black as well as Blacks. Most Berbers in North Africa are not Black, but the Tuareg are mixed with Blacks. Also, egypt has had much immigration from Sudan over the centuries. Also, Blacks are not a majority in the south, they are a large minority. Still in the south, many are not Black. ltha ، yanihthh hialtryqh altiythdth alarbayh ، wybahth anh ala alkmbaywtr؟ أم أنها كانت باللغة العربية من كمبيوتر مثل هذا؟

  • @BigPreme "According to Robins and Shute the average limb elongation ratios among ancient Egyptians is higher than that of modern West Africans who reside much closer to the equator. Robins and Shute therefore term the ancient Egyptians to be "super-negroid" but state that although the body plans of the ancient Egyptians were closer to those of modern negroes than for modern whites, “this does not mean that the ancient Egyptians were negroes". Predynastic egyptian stature - Robins, Gay.

  • @BigPreme "He also points out that the term super negroid is inappropriate, as it is also applied to non negroid populations. These features have been observed among Egyptian samples." Brace CL, Tracer DP, Yaroch LA, Robb J, Brandt K, Nelson AR. Clines and clusters versus "race:" a test in ancient Egypt and the case of a death on the Nile Yrbk Phys Anthropol 36:1–31'.

  • @BigPreme "Anthropologist C. Loring Brace points out that limb elongation is "clearly related to the dissipation of metabolically generated heat" in areas of higher ambient temperature. He also stated that "skin color intensification and distal limb elongation is apparent wherever people have been long-term residents of the tropics". CONTINUED>>>
