Wed, April 30, 2008 - 10:52 AMWhy are you offended by this quiz exactly? I thought it was interesting and challenging and showed the role of Nubia in Egypt's past. I learned a lot from it.

Re: Quiz: Test your knowledge of race in Ancient Egypt
Mon, May 26, 2008 - 1:45 PMThere were 5 races as recorded by the Egyptians, perhaps 5-6-7 immaterial. They had many Adams. OK, racial and sexual attitude draws people towards Egypt on the ephemeral basis, namely belly dance and illicit sex. That has really nothing to do with pure initiation as we received it at the time and hand of of Menes, also conferred to him and continue to do so on occasion. Menes has Eridanus ascending, the constellation right from Orion and below Taurus, where the skies unroll at the WMAP cold spot. I guess this has nothing to do with belly dance, albeit the galaxy bellydances, of course. But we have another rhythm.

Are you kidding me? Are you people are that gullible?
"Some people could have a million pairs of eyes....yet still be blind."
What now you all are interested in ancient Egypt's Race?
The National Geographic is one of the most racist magazine (and this whitewashing quiz as well) and adheres to and is the major contributing factors of conditioning the world with whitewashed racist lies, why do they fear black people so much - Egypt is in Africa
*the higher score you got, the less you know. This is the problem with our educational system... and the media conditioning
i will go question by question and dismiss this nonsense
I challenge you to find 10 books written by White Egyptologists who mention that Egypt (and for that matter Israel) is in Africa
This Magazine and this Quiz insults the historical and cultural legacy of Blacks, Africans, and Kemeties by distorting history and blatantly insinuating that ancient Egyptians were anything but Black skin...
These ideas that the Ancient Egyptians are like the current Egyptians is so far off that it is laughable.
The Black "Land" nonsense:
Catechism: "The Egyptians called their country Kemet or Black after the color of the soil."
Western Egyptology contrived this deception from Herodotus, “Egypt is a land of black soil…We know that Libya is a redder earth.”
(Herodotus, The History, book 2:12); conveniently ignoring the fact that he also mentioned that the Egyptian people were black as well (Kemau ).
There's firsthand testimony from the 5th century Greek historian Herodotus who referred to the ancient Egyptians as “melanchroes” (Black-skinned). if the ancient Egyptians were White, Herodotus would have used the term “leucochroes” and if brown or red skinned “phrenychroes” would have been used.
So, to anyone not familiar with the Ancient Egyptian language, this "Kemet = black soil" may seem plausible. It is not.
Kemet translated as the "Black Land" is a European Egyptological white lie.
European scholars will perform complex illogical mental gymnastics not to translate Kemet correctly
they will even chisel the Sphinx's nose and lips and destroy most of the other monuments of our Negroid features

The Sphinx the Guardian of the Pyramid of Khufu (Khufu is an African name)
www.egyptpyramidhistory.com/sphinx.htm
This confusion only exists because of racist scholars who attempt to cloud the facts of the text.
The Metu Neter - Medew Netcher (Mdw ntr) is crystal clear if read correctly.
Kemet was the name of the nation, wherin kmt means black. And can and has been applied to the nation, it's peoples and individuals. The Kemetic people referred to themselves as Kememu (means Black People).
Sometimes individuals also had names that referred them as such......
for example Kemset:
Indeed, we have solid proof that when the Egyptians wanted to call someone
black, they used adjective plus noun as the construction. This is found in
the Montuhotep II complex, where a group of priestesses and possibly wives
of the pharaoh were buried. One of them is named Kmst, Kemsit vocalized,
and her name translates, "the lady is black". Now depictions of Kemsit in
her tomb chapel depict her as ebony black, darker than the males and
females serving on her, and in the reliefs from the Upper Chapel, she is
depicted also ebony black, and with tightly curled hair. Naville, who
excavated this site in the late 1890s, declares that he found a mummy in
Kemsit's tomb, whom he described as "negroid".
Supposedly he sent it to the British Museum, but they have somehow managed to lose it

Alright, on to the next question of that test, and the real answers ...
but first a test question of my own
*Which country has the largest collection of pyramids? Think again, for it is not Egypt?
OK on to Question 2
What is the actually translation of the word Nubian (nhsi)
their answer was meaning bronzed (ha-ha)
See, this is how we were all conditioned, it starts in schools and on being graded
The real meaning of Nubian comes from the word Nu
NU" as the name and the address to the Supreme Divine Creator of the universe. "NU-TEM, "
NU-TERU, TEM or NETERU emanations (Gods) of the Divine
this is also where the word Niger (country in Africa) and Negro comes from...meaning Gods
so when some one is using the derogatory term what they're really calling them are Gods
AMEN or AMON is the same as Nu ;- A typical Ancient spiritual person is a "Nubian", also in other parts of AFRICA meaning divine intelligence .Also ;- Numo, Nyumo or Noomo.
Nu is the same as Amon (Amen) and Yes, it's the same one still being used after all these years at the end of prayers by Catholics and Christians, and yet they don't have a clue as to what it means or where it comes from
