+E +E/There was and is wide mingling of the

blood of all races in Africa, but this

is consistent with the general thesis

that Africa is predominantly the land of

the Negroes and Negroid peoples, just as

Europe is a land of Caucasoids and Asia

of Mongoloids. We may gie up entirely,

if we wish, the whole attempt to delimit

races, but we cannot, if we are sane,diide the world into whites, yellows,

and blac!s, and then call blac!s white.

small door with two metal handles.6n 6ctober 78, )**+, #r. El "as and two

assistants sent a fiber optic camera lens

through a flaw in this door. What was

allegedly found was a 7 meter by ).:

The statue seemed to be in the image of

a blac! male, holding an an!h in one hand. 6n the opposing wall of

this chamber was

a round shaped passage leading out.7

%t is usual to contrast the negresses on the tomb of

2oremheb with the Egyptian type also shown. This contrast

is surely a false oneF it is social and not ethnic and

there is as much difference between an aristocratic

3enegalese lady from #a!ar and those anti&ue African

peasant women with their horny hands and splay feet asbetween the latter and an Egyptian lady of the cities of

anti&uity.

There are two ariants of the blac! race$ ;a< straight

haired, represented in Asia by the #raidians and in

Africa by the Nubians and the Tubbou or Tedda, all three

with jetblac! s!insF ;b< the !in!yhaired blac!s of the

E&uatorial regions. "oth types entered into the

composition of the Egyptian population.

Museum, which are in an e5cel state of preseration. 4or

two years past % hae been ainly begging the curator of

the Cairo Museum for similar samples to analy@e. No more

than a few s&uare millimetres of s!in would be re&uired

to mount a specimen, the preparations being a few um in

thic!ness and lightened with ethyl ben@oate. They can bestudied by natural light or with ultraiolet lighting

which renders the melanin grains fluorescent.

Either way let us simply say that the ealuation of

melanin leel by microscopic e5amination is a laboratory

method which enables us to classify the ancient Egyptians

un&uestionably among the blac! races.

Osteological easre$ents

Among the criteria accepted in physical anthropology for

classifying races, the osteological measurements are

perhaps the least misleading ;in contrast to craniometry
