Boy King Tut For example: Ancient Egyptian: MSDM-T MOSIDI (MASIZI)-MATO Ash for Eyes Bantu-SeTswana: MOSIDI WA MATLHO (Mosidi means Ash, Wa (for) and Matlho (Eyes) Their descendants are alive and building another but the knowledge for these divine designs was never recorded on paper, How do we access it?

It is only explained in the following manner: "The Protea flower is an emblem of beauty of our land and the flowering of our potential as a nation in pursuit of the African Renaissance. It also symbolizes the holistic integration of forces that grow from the earth, nurtured from above." Likewise, I will only refer to the Sri Yantra also known as the flower of life to give you a deeper understanding behind this 'sacred geometry'. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sri_YantraThe Pyramid shape on the SA coat of arms contains 9 smaller triangles, all on top of a five petals Protea flower. On the Sri Yantra, the nine triangles are interlaced in such a way as to form 43 smaller triangles in a web symbolic of the entire cosmos or a womb symbolic of creation. Together they express Advaita or non-duality. This is surrounded by a lotus flower of eight petals, a lotus of sixteen petals, and an earth square resembling a temple with four doors.

Previously back in 2002, London's Science Museum reconstructed Tutankhamen's face of his mummy. The project was called "Tutankhamun: beneath the mask". So they were the first to take on this expedition, but just didn't get the same amount of media coverage and promotion as the 2007 project in America's National Geographics. I most likely believe the contradicting figure of a paler and more Eurocentric Pharaoh was a direct response to London's (earlier) construction of King Tut, for obvious sensitive reason (The academic field will continue to stay racially concerned) Info on the 2002 Project.Online Articles gave their depiction of this 2002 Exhibition. The works of the project with Dr Robin Richards. Whilst we have the American and French depiction of tut; Caucasian north African ?? I am no phrenologist but I've never seen a "Caucasian" person's skull shaped like that before, I've only seen Black Africans with that "bean head" shaped skull, so what exactly is this?? How can they identify a Caucasian North African skull shape whilst working blindly in the lab? that's anatomically impossible even for an anthropologist to be that specific. Others; Cleopatra's murdered sister One Scientific depiction of her reconstructed face; And another And another; Now it would be up to us to decide what image of this princess would we admire the most. One thing they'll never admit is that they can't reconstruct the level of melanin in the royal's skin by just reconstructing the remaining mummy specimen and skull. And the eye color..lol I can't be bothered to debate it, it's evident enough. This is all played out to project to the readers and audience what they want to see. A none African influence in Egypt is their priority no matter what.

Be aware that this forums has plenty of threads on this topic already.
Also further information on the updated and advance DNA data of the Ancient Royals are posted regularly, keep in touch .

I am well aware of the "plenty of threads" and the plenty "updated and advanced DNA data" which so far seem the only available tool to link western Europe with north Africa. Is it because the available evidence on material and non-material culture link the north Africa with other places except the western Europe? And besides after whatever DNA proof is established, there still remain among other things the issue of religious practices and belief system of the ancient Egyptian that even today's Egyptians cannot explain even though similar non-material cultural practices are evident across the entire African continent

The satellite image of the Nile delta is similar to the symbol of the lotus used to refer to Lower Egypt. The Protea flower on SA coat of arms is also used to refer to the land. Both the Lower and Upper Egypt are lorded over by 2 serpents, perhaps reminiscent of the two crowns that challenged Moshe. The coat of arms is further explained in this manner: "The combination of the upper and lower circles intersect to form an unbroken infinite course, the lower circle represents the elements of Foundation and the upper circle of Ascendance"

The North was the gathering place of the forefathers, today it seems the South is the gathering place of the future generation where almost all African nationalities are present. Is it by coincidence that the Secretary bird is placed were there suppose to be a snake? Remember the error of the past has to be corrected, The bird destroys that which lorded over the lands (flowers) of the forefathers. The bird appears also on the coats of arms of Sudan a Bantu (Ba-Tho) nation. There "is a recently discovered hieroglyphic translated means a town in the Sudan named "Bantu", which of course is named after the inhabitants of this ancient Sudanese town (The "Bantu", "Anu"/Pre-Dynastic Egyptians "Batu" (Batho). Use your African fiber or whatever little is left of it to decipher this.

And besides after whatever DNA proof is established, there still remain among other things the issue of religious practices and belief system of the ancient Egyptian that even today's Egyptians cannot explain even though similar non-material cultural practices are evident across the entire African continent Well if you consider modern Spain part of western Europe then there are some known historical eras such as the Islamic Moors of North Africa that ruled the Iberian peninsula around the 700s (one specific Book source to look into- Moorish Spain- Richard Fletcher ) . Plenty of artefacts and historical texts that show proof of European/Arab/Asian and African affiliation in regards to trade routes and migrations, pre-dating the Atlantic slave trade, but for a long time it was left to the dust of the past and neglected (In my point of view). This era focuses on a historical context evolving around Eurocentric idles. For example the basic (2D) map of the world is biased and in favour of European and "Northern" regions in terms of scale and land mass. This is the most familiar and used map in the Western World And this is the most accurate (2D) map of the world (The Peters Projection Map) by a more realistic scale And you can see the difference. So in many ways there will continue to be an academic flaw in all the fields we look into today. The past has been systematically eradicated by the imperial heads who were obsessed with past civilisations, the more they digged into the past, the darker and African their links get, the one thing was to cover it up.

Interesting link, There is definitely recent evidence that the majority of Safari/African animal species also inhabited North Africa.

And this is the most accurate (2D) map of the world (The Peters Projection Map) by a more realistic scale Ya, there are too many flawed academic disciplines and is hard to discard because institutions invested so much in them that to discredit is to destroy empires. Remember Earth globe got two Poles and somehow straight Latitudinal lines on Map Projection must converge at those points, otherwise it will create a cylindrical projection. Today we rely mostly on World Geographic Coordinate System for accuracy and to have correct coordinate system information associated with a dataset. For example in GIS, Geoprocessing is used to analyse one layer based on another as such coordinate system must be the same otherwise calculations such as measuring distance or area will be inaccurate. The coordinate system for Rivers layer, Country boundaries and the Spot image are all the same

Just out of curiosity, are you South African? Yes I am In ancient Egypt, red was associated with life, health, and victory. It appears Egyptian men used ochre on their skin the same way as the Himba people of Namibia, in addition, Egyptians would color themselves with red ochre during celebrations. Egyptian women used red ochre as a cosmetic to redden cheeks and lips. It also had a negative association, with heat, destruction and evil. A prayer to god Isis said: "Oh Isis, protect me from all things evil and red." The ancient Egyptians began manufacturing pigments in about 4000 BC. Red ochre was widely as a pigment for wall paintings, particularly as the skin color of men. An ivory painter's palette found inside the tomb of King Tutankhamun had small compartments with pigments of red ochre. In Ancient Rome, Tyrian purple was the color of the Emperor, but red had an important religious symbolism. Romans wore togas with red stripes on holidays, and the bride at a wedding wore a red shawl, called a flammeum. Red was used to color statues and the skin of gladiators. Red was also the color associated with army; Roman soldiers wore red tunics, and officers wore a cloak called a paludamentum which, depending upon the quality of the dye, could be crimson, scarlet or purple. In Roman mythology red is associated with the god of war, Mars.The vexilloid of the Roman Empire had a red background with the letters SPQR in gold. A Roman general receiving a triumph had his entire body painted red in honor of his achievement.

Nice contribution to the forum keep it up and welcome Thank you, need I mention the Masai and their love for red, they too are Ba-Tho. In almost every Bantu culture there is a hybrid version of prayer for protection. By hybrid I mean 2 religious beliefs coming together to form 1, an example of one such prayer commonly taught to children in Southern Africa is as follows: Re phemele ka diphuka, O Jeso reboloke, jaanong re mo bosigong, fa dira di re tlhasela, Morena dithibela, go re relale ka kagiso, Amen" In translation it means: Protect us with your wings/feathers, O Jesus keep us safe, now we entered into the night, when enemies attack, Lord shield us so that we may rest in peace, Amen. The ancient prayer said: O Isis, protect me from all things evil and red...
