black madonna in vienna, austria. this is the last of the madonna photos, however there are in fact 300 statues in europe of the black madonna, and also there are some in latin america today, due to europeans bringing christianity to the native american populations.

this is a questions to all my viewers, and lets test your logic, and all opinions is welcome,


[b] IN MANY EUROPEAN COUNTRIES, YOU HAVE MANY STATUARIES FEATHERING IMAGES OF THE BLACK MARY AND BLACK BABY JESUS, AND THESE IMAGES IS CONSIDERED MORE SACRED THAN ITS WHITE COUNTERPART. MIND YOU, THESE IMAGES OF THE BLACK MARY AND JESUS WERE PRESENT SINCE THE ADVENT OF CHRISTIANITY IN EUROPE. SO, THE QUESTIONS IS WHY WOULD COUNTRIES THAT IS NEARLY ALL WHITE PRODUCE STATUES OF A BLACK MARY AND BLACK JESUS. I ALREADY HAVE A OPINION, BUT I WANT TO HEAR YOURS. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO SHARE YOUR OPINION, ALL ANSWERS OR IDEAS ARE WELCOME. I WILL PRODUCE IMAGES OF THE BLACK MADONNAS FROM VARIOUS EUROPEAN COUNTRIES. HOWEVER, TO GIVE YOU A CLUE OF MY ANSWER, IT IS ALREADY ON THIS TREND. AGAIN, ALL OPINIONS OR IDEAS IS WELCOME. [/b]

despite what the guy written on his website it is not a queen but it is the nile valley god bes, even though he looks hideous, he played a very important role in nile valley culture.

also, i don't know who or what this statue representation, however, i am assuming it was made during the meriotic period or during hellenistics times. if anyone know please tell me what it is, however since this was highlighted at the exhibit showing "treasures from the sudan" in abu dhdabi, it is not a doubt that the piece is sudanese. if anyone can make this out.

here is the link. http://webmungkey.multiply.com/photos/album/24/Abu_Dhabi_Treasures_from_Sudan

i am not sure who this pharaoh or possible deity is, so if anyone know please let me know. this statue along with the other statue was on display at the abu dhabi museum in the gulf feathering "Sudan Ancient Treasure" which was last year, and i heard it was a hit. here is the link that was display, but the person that took the pictures did not highlighted any of the museum pieces. however, some of his pictures are absolutely amazing.

back to african treasures folks. this ancient god is only unique to the sudan and he is called sebiumeker. the tourist will notice at the musawarrat es sufra complex of large statures representing this god. some say is the the guardian god other scholars believe that he is the god of procreation. needless to say, they are still debating the role he played with the ancient meroites.

hello, epi! i think you misunderstood me. what i mean about southern roots is basically not northern egypt, but where the lady actually live in upper egypt and again northern sudan. as i mentioned before sudan and egypt in various time in there histories were one country. you must remember the historical ta seti/cush/or nubia begins and parts of upper egypt and continues on to northern sudan. indeed that is what i mean her roots in the south, not in the delta area of egypt. in fact it is a well know fact that high percent of the people in parts of upper egypt are majority darkskinned. you definitely see it once you go to luxor and further south. it is almost like being in two separate countries sometimes, but they are part of one whole.

this is the map of classical ancient egypt which includes parts of northern sudan today. however, beyond that was the powerful kingdom of kerma during ancient times.

epi, here is the link to the picture i found on yahoo images.

hello epi, i am glad you are still with us, i was hoping you will post more pictures. however, i will answer your question, yes the lady is from egypt, but obviously she has southern roots. i posted a articule from the guardian from great Britian that the history of egypt and northern sudan is very interwine, since the countries border each other, it will be obvious the the two countries will have share ethnic groups on both side of the border. also, you must remember egypt and sudan were once one country in various times in their shared histories. if you read about the history of the nile valley, and notice the mouments in both countries, the issue of a so called black face lady, should not even cross your mind. in other words, it would only be logical that so called black face people will exist in egypt, since they border sudan. the lady is actually from luxor egypt.

thank you again, madlady. like you, i have been searching through google or yahoo then i clicked to image to hopefully get results. that is how i was able to get images of the church of saint george in labilia ethiopia. as far as the pictures is concern, i have also been searching for the inside of the artwork of saint george but no results. however, i have a deep feeling that the local priests or nuns prevent people taking pictures inside the church, because i heard that in many places in ethiopia they don't allow photos of certain pierces of art, which the church deem as sacred.], we might have to go their to see the actual artwork of the church, however if i find something, i will provide you with the link. thank you again madlady
