Hopefully though, when the SCA finishes reconstructing all the mummies and after the King Tut reconstruction tour goes around the US and after PC propagandists like PBS stop spreading lies and if National Geographic continues to use realistic-looking Egyptians to cast as the AEs, Afrocentrism will have breathed its last breath. If you want to read about X-rays of Egyptian mummies minus Hawass's ridiculous political pandering, go and buy the X-Ray Atlas of Royal Mummies. And that Tut reconstruction has features that are *NOT* 'Caucasian' such as that elongated head shape with the prominent occipital bun. His facial features are overwhelmingly Caucasian. Who would Hawass pander to? Hawass doesn't have an agenda.

His skin color isn't even accurate, all portrayals of him in art show him to be darker, not lighter. Go out and buy X-ray Atlas of Royal Mummies.

I'm eagerly awaiting a movie about Elvis starring Samuel L. Jackson as the King himself. Just curious annunaki; If you was born in a subsaharan country, say Burkina, and was raised there would you marry a black man and mother his chlidren!?. If I liked him and found him handsome, then sure, why not. And I absolutely don't understand what your question has to do with this thread.

I think we all know Berter's mentality, it doesn't take a genius what he meant when he asked that question LOL. He is one bitter Berber.

He has good credentials as an Egyptologist, but his blatant political agendas are obvious.

I'm not making excuses at all. Its a fact that many early Egyptologist thought that Neferiti's lineage might have contained some foreign ancestry. She was not from royal lineage according to most people.
Listen people on this board act like ancient Egyptian history is something set in stone. Well it's not. You have many people still debating family origins and connections of the 17th to 18th dyansty which happens to be the most famous one.
Ancient Egyptians did not write their history straight forwards like Greco-Roman historians, and thus we have to speculate many times about the dyansties based upon papyri fragments,Manetho,Kings Lists,or other material.
Its alot deeper than somebody qubiling over what ethnicity or racial origins the ancient Egyptians were. People just seem to want to claim the ancient Egyptians because of their accomplishments but could care less about cultural origins.
What we get here is a knee-jerk reaction that is extremely uncessary.
We still don't even know if many of those royal mummies found in the tombs are actually who many claim to be. People don't realize that plunderings of the mummies was common place and that many mummies who we think are really the people in question might not be. We have no real way to positively identify them.

LOl salma hayek? I could think of more women who look like that than her, though she is hot. The only difference in favor of Salma is that her origine lies in the ME. Its a plus (+) for her. Btw, Nefertiti looks like she could be ...my wife.

If I liked him and found him handsome, then sure, why not. There are no handsome types in subsaharan africa. The pure blacks of North America lack that property as well and I'm certain you will not like a ugly and very smart black, assuming such an individual exist. I'm only a berber with a very low IQ who get outsmarted by intelligent blacks. Forgive my offtopic question annunaki and ...thanks for answering!

You sound more ridiculous as each day passes by.
