Caucasoid Egypt and the Sun - Cynthia G

lol.. her video offers a different "sunburn" angle but she needs to tighten up on accuracy.
She says around the time the big pyramids were built Caucasoids did not exist and that
they had to go into caves to prevent sunburn. This is dubious. We know that pale
EUro type skin is a recent phenomenon- yes- around 6000-12000 years ago (Jablonski 2000),
but that would have put such in place before the big pyramids were built. And no, not
all white people were "living in caves" around the time of the big pyramids. With such
errors she couldn't really be credible in any serious or semi-serious debate.

She would have been better off pointing out that almost 15-17% of Egypt is in the tropical
belt, and that siad Egyptians were tropically adapted people, and thus they would not have
had that much of a problem with sunburn etc, and she could have gotten into the tropical
limb proportions and the many shades of NATIVE dark and brown skin that make up Egyptians
etc, and how the Nubians are the closest people ethnically to the ancient Kemetians, etc
who are Africans. Maye you can clue her in on some of this research that has been up for
several years now on the Net. Unfortunately many folk out here seem not to want to do
a little reading on the science in the area but want quick memes and sound bites.. But
even then, they could have that, while at least showing some accuracy.
