That's a simplistic way of looking at it but where ever there is ambiguity or conflict I point it out. Yes. It would seem that even this is too much.

Far from it, I have posted more relevant links to back my positions than the entire troupe assembled against me. Now I must confess to quite enjoying the interaction and panic that most mistakenly assume is their god given right to defend. take your for example... you are pushing the ancient Egyptians were from the same stock as those to the north. Yet you have refused to post a link (maybe you did and I missed it?). I recently read an article that historians and archaeologists in Greece made a similar claim using DNA linking Asia Minor to a ancient Greece excluding Egypt. Now have I made an issue and called you out on it? No. Have others. No. Should I call you a troll? Edited August 18, 2017 by Captain Risky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They Minoans and Mycenaean Greeks shared many cultural similarities, while still having major differences, and it wouldn't surprise me in the least if they were genetically related. And it has been proven conclusively, that the ancient Egyptians shared a genetic lineage with ancient peoples from Anatolia, the Levant, and southeastern Europe. Genetics is a remarkable field that has proven to be quite useful to archaeology. Edited August 18, 2017 by Lord Harry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is only a header that mentions that ancient Egyptian royalty had genetic links to the north which is perfectly logical as political unions ruled and pretty women were traded freely. Hope you're not suggesting that the entire ancient Egyptians were genetically similar to the levant, Asia Minor and dare I say Greece? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read it again, most of their entire genetic material indicates an ancestral origin to the Levant and Asia Minor. This would not have been simply the result of political unions with foreign women. If such were the case, then there would have been more sub-Saharan DNA since Nubia had been an Egyptian colony since the Old Kingdom, and Nubian concubines and even queens were taken. And yet, sub-Saharan DNA is almost entirely lacking in the genetic sampling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're spinning your wheels, my friend. Risky is an intelligent individual but he falls into familiar patterns. As you can see, he's questioning your source not because he really cares about it or understands it but merely so he can "buck authority." I don't know if it's some glitch on my end but I'm seeing Risky's avatar photo for you ("Kick it rip it"). If it's a glitch, it will probably resolve. But if it's deliberate you should probably find another. Posters get into trouble for taking other posters' avatar photos. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
