^ LOL!!! i know, i know... it's kina embarassing when you don't have the pictures to match up the outlandish Afrocentric claim LOL!! Oh yea, those "latter" moors are from the 10th century LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I realized from the jump that you were not at all about scholarship or getting down to the truth. You have a preconceived notion and you are just looking for info you can slant to support your belief.
The drawings I provided thoroughly demolished you. Oh yea... the moors were muslim (LOL)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
First of all those pics of White/Lite-skinned folks are Syrians,European Muslims,Christians..but all that was made known to you before and plus the explanation of the manuscript. But go ahead and feign ignorance.. ;D
www.funci.org/en/2009/articles/hadith-bayad-wa-riyad-manuscript/ But of course the point of the movie clip wasn't about scholarship!! it was to demonstrate that Moors were universally recognized as blacks to all but obscurest..there really is nooo mystery here.
But here is a few quotes from ancient and medieval European Afrocentrics-
Sowdone of BabyloneWhen Savariz saw this misfortune of the Romans, how great their sorrow that of ten thousand men were left no more but sixty men and twelve. And when he saw this misfortune, he turned homeward. By then he found the gate shut by the Saracens that had won it. He met Astrogote. He had a head as a boar, black and dark, and a great mace as strong as steel. He smote Savariz, who fell dead to the ground. This Astrogote of Ethiopia was a king of great strength. There were none in Europe so strong and so long. I think he was a devil’s son, of Beelzebub’s line. He caused Christian men great pain. When tidings came to the Pope that Duke Savariz was slain, all his hope turned to woe.
The Song of RolandTheir martyrdom, his men's, Marsile has seen,
So he bids sound his horns and his buccines;
1630 Then canters forth with all his great army.
Canters before a Sarrazin, Abisme,
More felon none was in that company;
Cankered with guile and every felony,
He fears not God, the Son of Saint Mary;
1635 Black is that man as molten pitch that seethes;
Better he loves murder and treachery
Than to have all the gold of Galicie;
Never has man beheld him sport for glee;
Yet vassalage he's shown, and great folly,
1640 So is he dear to th' felon king Marsile;
Dragon he bears, to which his tribe rally.
That Archbishop could never love him, he;
Seeing him there, to strike he's very keen,
Within himself he says all quietly:
1645 "This Sarrazin great heretick meseems,
Rather I'ld die, than not slay him clean,
Neer did I love coward nor cowardice."
Orkneyinga saga
Moors vs VikingsOnce both parties were on board there was fierce fighting,the people on the Dromond being Saracens,whom we called infdels of Mohammed, among them a good many black men,who put up a strong resistance.
Earling,honored aimer of spears,eagerly advanced toward the vassel in victory,with banners of blood;the black worriors,brave lads we captured or killed,crimsoning our blades,busey with this Dromond business our blades we bloodied on the blacks.
“Grieve not at this, poor wretch, and with thine own hand give thy wife the potion whatever is be for did she choose to bear her leaping children in her womb thou wouldst, perchance, become the sire of an Ethiop, a blackamoor would soon be your sole heir.”

Juvenal, Satire VI, lines 596 – 600“One of them, with wooly hair, like a Moor, seems to be the son of Santra, the cook. The second, with a flat nose and thick lips, is the image of Pannicus, the wrestler . . . of the two daughters, one is black . . . and belongs to Crotus, the flute player.”

Martial, VI, 39.“When tired of each noblest matron, (Gildo) hands her over to the Moors. These Sidonian mothers, married in Carthage City, must needs be mate with barbarians. He thrusts upon me an Ethiopian son-in-law. This hideous hybrid affects the cradle.”
