THE ANCIENT EGYPTIANS WERE BLACK
The genealogical chart in Genesis 10 lists Ham (Khem/ Khawm/Kam/Cham) as the paternal father of the Black Afrikans and from these Afrikans originated Egypt, Babylon, Persia, Kushites/Nubians. Ham had four sons: Cush (Ethiopia/Nubia), Mizraim (Egypt), Phut (Libya/East Afrika), and Canaan (Palestine) (Genesis 10:6). The ancient Egyptians are identified in the Bible as Hamites/Khemites (Psalm 106:21-22; 78:51; 105:27), and were descended through the line of Mizraim which is the name given for Egypt in the Hebrew Old Testament.
"Kemet" is an ethnic term derived from the word Khem (Khawm/Cham/Ham) which means burnt or Black. Ham, one of the three sons of Noah and the direct ancestor of the Egyptians, was Black; moreover, the Bible repeatedly refers to Egypt as the Land of Khawm /Ham, and equates Ham with Egypt. (Psalm. 78:51; 105: 23, 27; 106:21, 22). In other words, the Bible is calling Egypt the Land of Black people .
The ancient Egyptians called themselves KM or Kam-Au which means Black people or Black God-people, and their country Kemet (Kamit /Khemit), which means land of the Black people and the Black Land. The foreign word Egypt is derived from the Greek word Aigyptos / Aegyptos which also means Black. However, Western historians, Egyptologists, and professors disseminate the misinformation that the word Kemet only refers to the colour of the land which it can, and not to the colour of its people which it does. These Egyptologists, scholars and historians have deliberately manufactured this deception based partly on a section of Herodotus' statement which says that Egypt is a land of Black soil; completely ignoring the fact that he also said that the Egyptian people were Black.
Examine this sample of kings from the 1-5th dynasties of the early Egyptian period which many historians suggest was dominated by white rulers.
Namer- 1st dynasty was the first unifer of Upper & Lower Egyp.t Namer (Aha/Menes) (3150 -3050 BCE)
Hetep
Hetep first king of the 2nd dynasty around- (2845-2860 BC) Hetepsekhemwy
Sanakhte 3rd dynasty around- (2745-2575 BC) Sanakhte - the first pharaoh of the third dynasty of ancient Egypt.
Khufu 4th dynasty (2585-BCE) was the second king of dynasty 4 of OLD KINGDOM
Userkaf- The 5th around-(2524-2517 BC) Userkaf was the founder of the 5th Dynasty.
These professors and Egyptologists sought to deceive the world by painting the picture that Egyptian civilization was created by the people who originally came from Asia, yet no Asian parent can be found anywhere. There are no buildings, writings, or cultural material to provide the evidence that anything came from Asia that could have produced what was found in Egypt, but on the other hand, there is plenty of evidence which clearly point to the fact that the reverse was true, including these words from the Egyptians themselves. "We came from the source of the Nile, the foothills of the mountains of the moon" .
A map will show that they either came from Ethiopia or Uganda, so taking the Egyptians own words as to where they came from, that would be the hinterlands of Afrika, up river, up the Nile, near either Mount Ruwenzori or Mount Kilimanjaro, which would take them either into Ethiopia or the Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania areas.
The Egyptians used only one term to describe themselves - KM(T) - which literally means Black men. The term represents a collective noun which describes the whole people of Pharaonic Egypt as a Black people, and this is the strongest term existing in the Pharaonic language that indicates Blackness.
Note the carving on the hieroglyph below where on the left centre there is a symbol that looks like a little stair step which is the hieroglyphic emblem or Medu Netjer symbol for KM. The symbol that looks like half a ball is the hieroglyph for T, and from these you get KMT (Kemet) and terms like chemistry, chemical, Kham. The symbol is enlarged and shown again separately on the right for clarity.
KMT'S Symbol
So KMT is the strongest word in the Egyptian language for Black , but in addition, note that there are also two little people sitting beside this symbol which indicates that it is referring to Black People , that is, the Black people of the Black land . So the Egyptians have given us a physical description as well as the term they used to call themselves, in their own words - KMT - Black people .
Note that the Egyptians made no distinction between themselves and the Nubians in the temple or in the tomb of Rameses III. The one on the left is Nubian; the one in the middle between the Semite and the Asian is Egyptian. This clearly shows that the Nubian and the Egyptian are identical to each other in physical type, which is the reason they are portrayed as BLACK.
The original people of Kemet never depicted themselves as Asian or European types , and are never shown with white or pale skin on any of the authentic artefacts until the foreign period.
So there is more than enough Biblical proof supporting the Black origin of Egypt, but even in modern times there was an extensive range of techniques utilized by Dr. Cheik Anta Diop in the course of his Black-Egyptian efforts which included: accurate bone structure measurements and meticulous studies in the many related areas of anatomy and physical anthropology; examination of the epidermis of the mummies of Egyptian kings to verify their melanin content; comparing modern Egyptian and West Afrikan blood-types; detailed Black-Egyptian linguistic studies, the authentication of clear Black-Egyptian cultural traits; the writings of early Greek and Roman travellers as well as other scholars who described the physical characteristics of the ancient Egyptians as pure unmixed Blacks.
When the original Egyptians were at the pinnacle of their glory they were not a mixed group by any stretch of the imagination. This mixing occurred during the middle dynasties in particular, when foreign people migrated to this great land and started intermarrying, and this may have triggered the downfall of this great Black Civilization.
Of course White supremacists, professors, scholars, historians and so on want you to believe that it was the other way around, that Egypt was originally a white nation until Blacks arrived and intermixed especially during the final dynasties like the 18th, resulting in the destruction of Egypt and causing Egypt to become a decadent and degenerate society because of this heavy infiltration of Black blood. They have even created a rule of thumb which states that any civilized white country will revert to a lower level of culture once the population becomes excessively mixed with alien genes. Portugal is sited as an example, but of course they will not point out that when practically all of Europe was living in the dark ages, the Black Moors returned to uplift and bring them out of their barbaric state and back into the light again, restoring some semblance of civility, just as they had done before.
Naturally modern Egypt would have changed considerably as a result of the waves of invasions by the Arabs and other foreign people, and this would have impacted heavily on the colour variations of the present region, but white Egyptologists only focus on the most recent world of the white and mixed people of the Greco-Roman period, erroneously teaching that the ancient Egyptians had always looked that way physically. This is like trying to prove that ancient America has always looked like the present day white population.
In fact, when white people visit Egypt today, the locals immediately recognize them as Khawaaga which means foreigners, but when Afrikan Americans visit they are often mistaken for native Egyptians and referred to as Masri or Egyptians. This is because. Egypt is, and always has been a Black Afrikan nation.
Since the Cairo Symposium of 1974, the Caucasoid origins of Egypt along with the western Asiatic theory have gradually been abandoned in most scholarly writings, which have been replaced by a new
