Those holding to olden days over exaggerated moral and cultural value should take a cue. We are only taking what the generations before ours left for us into another height, we are not introducing new madness.

women quickly looking for a way to justify their guilty conscience since they are totally unwilling to repent. LISTEN TO THIS who are the egyptians? Are they not idol worshippers and founders of horoscopy? Thank God this article also mentioned they are idol worshippers. Since the days of adam, the world has been occupied by two set of people - God's people and Secular people. If a secular idol worshipping egyptian used brazillian that doesnt mean a God fearing Israelite used hair extensions too. We need archeological record from israel to prove that God's people used hair extensions too.

It is known that great figures of ancient society would be entombed with many treasures and ornaments.. Also was the discovery of kings tombs with the mummies of people that were dispatched to join the deceased to serve him in the afterlife...
So maybe this womans case could have been similar but rather than her beloved join her, they cut pieces of themselves of to join her.. Of course hair is a painless part to cut off and also a very common gesture among people to keep memorabilia from each other...
If it was me, i would test the hair extensions to see if they were from 70 different people and then it may be likely they were memorabilia so as to send a part of themselves with her into the afterlife until they met again still long before any of us were born...

Or maybe she was just hair dressed for her funeral as any woman would for any very special occasion...

I don't blame you. This is what you get when you mingle with kids.

I've forgiven you. You'd understand this someday when you grow older and more mature.

Gullible black women! This is a well-engineered, crafted scheme by the mafias of a $10 billion industry to establish basis for why black women wear and should continue to wear extensions... to milk more $billions from them. I'm not an archaeologist but for an extension to withstand such a length of time - this is a thousand yrs older than so called Jesus - is highly questionable especially when some hard metals used during similar time have been practically irretrievable or recognizable by assayers. Don't tell it was due to mummification.

Bros, go read your Old Testament wella.

Poor Israeli women would not go around bedecked in jewels and updos, because they would need to carry water and goods. Wealthy ones (think David, Solomon their wives, their council chiefs and their wives) would dress nicely. They were expected to dress finely, to symbolise the wealth and power of Israel and Judah. Why would the Bible say, in reference to when they want to symbolise mourning and repentance in times of sorrow, that people wore "sackcloth"? That means that in normal times, they didn't.

If you want a simple girl, not a problem, lots exist. But don't try and distort the Bible to suit your opinions.

Errmm, you do realise that Egypt's climate is VERY DRY and with their embalment practises, things could LAST well, right?? Anything sealed from moisture and heat will last well. You do realise that they have found metals of those days to withstand corrosion better than our modern materials, bah?

There is no word like " embalment"...simply doesn't exist. I mentioned "mummification" in my previous post; a specialized embalming procedure used by ancient Egyptians. If you clearly missed that, then there is no basis for me to debate this with you. It has nothing to do with climate; absolutely ZERO! I'm well read in Egyptology and Paleontology!

Re: Ancient Egyptian Woman With 70 Hair Extensions Discovered by Ihuomadinihu: 8:18am On Sep 23, 2014
White women would not wear extentions and braids of this sort in ancient Egypt. This is for people that wanna push Egypt was not a black race.
Scientists will never give credit to black Africa,they find the remains of a person with Afro and Locs,they will quickly call it wigs.
They find remains of a near blonde hair,they will say it belongs to a Caucasian,all in a bid to discredit the Negriod race. They find remains of a people with aqualine nose,thin lips and fine hair,they will say Egyptians are different from West-Africans. Lol.
They forget that the African Phenotype is very diverse.
When they discover a different hair shaft,they will say heavy racial mixing,i.e ,they were neither black nor white. They succeded in pushing Egypt to the Arabian civilization and Middle east bloc. Is middle east not part of Africa? They discover red hair and they will term it an European hair,while forgetting that Africans in that region used red clay to dye their hair and it has been proven that the embalming materials are capable of changing an individual's hair colour.They equally find black Indians and they quickly say they are not related to us,forgetting that they shipped Africans to india long before the Trans-Atlantic slave trade.
Obviously,Egypt became a melting pot of races at the height of it's civilization,however there is nothing that suggests that it's religion,culture or even language is not similar to the rest of Africa.
We need to rise up and tell our stories.
Nevertheless,Egyptians kept different hairstyles,they used hair dyes from plants,hair gels or styling gels from fats,curling equipments were also widely used. These people may not have blackberry, computers,Skype etc,but they were far intelligent than people in the 21st century.

Whilst reading that opening post, what stood out for me was neither the reasons behind women using hair extensions nor the baseless reasons why they shouldn't, but the fact that thousands of years ago when civilization was still in its most basic forms, we had Africans whose brains were too developed for their time and thus completed feats that even modern science and technology still takes years, and even decades to explain infact, there are still a huge cache of things that the ancient egyptians achieved and did that Egyptologists are no closer to unraveling than they were a century ago. One cannot help it but wonder how advanced the peoples of the 21st century Egypt and Africa as a whole would have been if the rate of development they had 4,000 years had continued unabated.
Myopia, religious fanaticism, hatred, greed, corruption are not friends of the building blocks of any society. Was in Alexandria (Borg-El Arab) last year, decided to go for a walk but didn't take note of the fact that a tiny part of the shirt I wore had the word 'Israel' written on it, a few minutes into the walk and I'd had more than a few Egyptians walk up to me and advise me to go back and change the shirt before getting to the mall I was headed towards. Its needless to say I had to go back and 'do the needful'.

This hair attachment industry is aware that African men are challenging Black women. The publicised bust of Nerfetiti was forged to make an European woman claim.

The Ancient Egyptians are Black Africans like me and you and their African traditional religion and horoscopy is the origin of Hebrewism, which after Babylon evolved to Judaism, which after Greek conquest evolved to Essene Judaism, which after Roman conquest evolved to Christianity, which after arabisation evolved to Islam.
