what about the faces of egypt? like sudan egypt is also diverse, unlike other african countries both countries have shared ethnic groups that live on both side of the border. think about the hausa in northern nigeria and the hausa that live in niger, they are same people with a shared history and the same apply for egypt and this time northern sudan. however, many southern sudanese are viewed as foreigners and unforunately are treated as such. which is stupid. needless to say, here are some of the faces of today egypt.

Religion / Re: Oprah Says There Is No God ! by ababda: 5:27am On Nov 12, 2009
it is interesting mantraa, while your side of the african continent christianity did not work mainly due to europeans, however in the nile valley in egypt, and northern sudan, our society seem more progressive during the christian times, and we had a sense of identity. we did not call ourselves greeks or any other people, we were a nubian society, that work and was progressive. now, arabism in the northern sudan have taken over the land, even though some people still do speak nubian, many people don't speak nubian and regard themselves as a arab. just take a look at this journal and youtube video and you be the judge, and trust me i am not exposing the christian beliefs system, but highlighting the differences the affect of christianity in my society vs yours. in other words, trying to make it balance. nevertheless, i guess the same comparison would be make about islam in west africa. trust me the christian nubians were fighting the arabs for 700 years

sammy sosa looks very weird, if rita dominic was that extreme that would be another story, as a foreigner i seen several of her old movies she practically looks the same. when she wears shorts pants or short sleeve shirts her arms and legs match the rest of the color of her body, her coloring of her lips match, but sammy sosa on the other hand looks very strange. if you look at his lips, it does not match the color of his face. nevertheless, i guess he is not going to wear any short sleeve shirts or shorts anytime soon. i did know some black latinos were self hating but not to this extent. only thing i can say is WOW.

read her first book "infidel", she talks about her life in somalia, but she also lived in saudi arabia, ethiopia, and kenya collectively before immigranting to europe. you will find her opinion about life in saudi arabia quite interesting, and the racism that she had encountered their. also, her situation in kenya, which would give you a bird eye view what horners think of each other and others africans as well, but nothing worst than her saudi experience. yes, i suggest you get her book infidel first, because it is her own personal autobiography. i hope you enjoy and learn from it.

from you nubaeen brother.

bark stand excavated at the na'ga temple in northern sudan

Posted: Wed Apr 02, 2008 2:37 am Post subject:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Bark stand



Sandstone
Naga, Temple of Amun, sanctuary, excavation 104/1
Kushite (Meroitic), first century AD, reign of King Natakamani and Queen Amanitore

Left picture: The front side shows the falcon-headed Horus (left) and the ibis-headed Thoth (right) binding two plants, the papyrus and the lotus, around the central hieroglyphic emblem 'sema' (union). The papyrus represents Lower Egypt and the lotus represents Upper Egypt. Above this sign two cartouches are placed, crowned by a sun disc and double ostrich feather. The left (northern) cartouche contains the name of King Natakamani, while the right (southern) one the name of Queen Amanitore. Both are written in Meroitic hieroglyphs.

Right picture: Below, two Nile gods are binding two plants, the papyrus and the lotus, around the central hieroglyphic emblem 'sema", with the queen's second Egyptian name Merikara on the south, and the kings's second Egyptian name Kheperkara on the north.

The unification of Upper and Lower Egypt, symbolized by the sema motif, is the emblematic sign of political and cosmic order under the control of Kushite kingship.


Naga, Temple of Amun, Hypostyle, excavation no. 101/19
