Who Were the Ancient Egyptians?
The ""Egyptians" of 5000 years ago were simply immigrants from various parts of North Africa, the Araban Desert and the Sinai as well as the lan of Canaan. The evidence shows that they did not build the massive pyramids, they found them there and adopted them. These groups were from differenct cultures that sopke different languages and had idfferent customs. The main two were the Amazigh (Libyrans) of North Africa and the Africans ftribes beyond Egypts southern border. The latter defeated the former and consolidated the land into a unified nation under the iron hand of a Pharaoh.
This will not be like any other presentation you've read about ancient Egypt. The truth is concealed by a cabal of historians, archaeologists, politicians and the Illuminati.
Decoding the Riddles of the Sphinx
Egypt has mystified people the world over for many generations. It presents a complex situation for many reasons. One of the main stumbling blocks has been trying to identify who the ancient Egyptians actually were.
The only way to ascertain that is to examine the environment, climate, and cultures of North Africa and parts of the Middle East from the end of the last Ice Age. I will try in this article to retrace the migrations of the cultures that came into Egypt when the African Humid Era ended and the desert started expanding 6-000 years ago.
First, Egypt, North Africa in general and the Arabian desert to the East were not always bone dry. In fact, they were well watered with rivers and lakes prior to 6000 BC. But the melting Ice coupled with the Wet Era caused the Nile river Valley to be flooded and all bu uninhabitable.
The Amazigh tribes lived across North Africa from eastern Egypt to Morocco. They were indigenous and enjoyed a lush, green landscape populated by wildlife until about 5000 BC. But then the Sahara desert was expanding as the Wet Era had ended.
These tribes, who were white non-Caucasians meaning they looked like Europeans but had different DNA and a very different history. They moved eastward as the desert expanded. They eventually set up an outpost at Siwa, Egypt. That is one of the oldest cities in Egypt and home of the first Temple of Amun..
Few People have even heard of this very ancient Amazigh city on the Egyptian border with Libyra. In fact, the Amazigh were called "the Westerners" or the "Libyans" by the Dynastic Egyptians. As the desert expanded to the west, on the other hand the Nile conditions turned more and more positive in the east, the Nile Valley region. It had been flooded and was drying out.
This was not limited to Africa, the process was going on in the larger surrounding regions.
A similar process was taking place to east of Egypt in the Great Nafud Desert of nearby Arabia. Rock art and other evidence of human presence along the shores of a now-vanished lake show that it was green 8,000 years ago and before. But it too dried out at the same time the Sahar region did.
Suddenly the Nile became a nexus for immigrants from three directions: west, south, east/northeast. Why do you need to know all of this?
Because the history of Egypt is complicated, muddled, compressed, fragmented and confusing. It is a puzzle with missing pieces and no directions about how to fit them together. You do not get to see the picture of what you are trying to put togethe beforehand.
You just have piles of puzzle pieces on the table to try and fit into place. That task needs to be done without knowing what the end picture is supposed to be when complleted. That is the case, and so much so, that we need a basic framework, the wider historical context as a guide.
One question just might make my point clear: who were the original Egyptians? In my view, with Egypt, we must to get down to basics and simplify things as much as possible.
I will demonstrate what I mean by describing this enigmatic land using four central icons that identify it:1) The Great Pyramid, 2) The Ankh 3) Hieroglyphs 4) Mummies..None of them were evident in 3500 BC, not in any form in the Nile Valley. There was no native Egyptian culture that held any of these symbols and artifacts in a sacred regard.
So, who did?
How can we possibly say that the native ‘Egyptians’, whoever they were, created these things? The central icons were not part of any local tribe’s traditions. No prototype pyramids, ankhs, mummies or hieroglyphs were on the Nile landscape prior to the dynastic era. Well, where did they come from?
Again, who were the Egyptians in 3500 BC?
Due to the climate situation described above, only a few, nomadic tribes were in the Nile Valley and delta prior to 5-4000 BC. They were not building pyramids or massive temples before 3000 BC. They were not even constructing small, primitive prototypes. Then all of sudden from 3000 BC onward all the Icons become the focus of a bran new civilization, snap!
We would like to think that our scholars have all of this sorted out, but they haven’t. The fact is that Egypt is not what we think it is. There was no indigenous culture -- that had the primitive forms of the above icons -- that was ready to roll them out all of a sudden in 3,000 BC. Let us keep it stripped down to basics a while longer. I mean down to plain ‘well that is obvious’ fundamentals.
People created the Egyptian civilization, not aliens from elsewhere, ordinary humans like us. Okay, since there was no Egypt in 3500 BC or even 3200 BC, then it sprang up in 3100 BC, the Nile valley and the delta must have been inhabited by tribes before then. (The Egyptian civilization I am not saying that they however, built the pyramids, those were already on the landscape.)
Same Question question again: who were they and where did they come from?
The Amazigh were right next door, they have to be a top candidate. Nubia lies just south and it too is a top candidate. The Arabian Peninsula is the closest land due east of Egypt Arab tribes then are top candidates. The Sinai and the deserts to the northeast are also close and therefore candidates.
Now, to clarify the point I will use a reference that the ‘Egyptians’ created much, much later than the period we are discussing. They said that there were 4 groups of people that were in Egypt; and they depicted them in the following way:
Now, we examine the image that was at the top of this article in detial. On the left is an Amazigh male, identified by his cape, tatoos and two feather headress; next is a Nubian; to his right is a ligheter skinned Canaanite from the Sinai desert region and then a brown Arabian tribesmen. Those were the original Egyptians and every DNA test has verified that the Egyptian gene pool is comprised of these cultures.
I shall have more articles on this subject in subsequent posts.
