I think you should have seen some of the Egyptian artifacts before the
Victorians got at them and removed the naughty bits :-)

Let us look at the Undisputable Case for the Gallic Black Man:
French is spoken all over Africa, and (coincidentally - OR IS IT?) all
over France. Many African languages apparently quite unrelated to French
contain words almost identical to the French equivalent - words like
'chaise longue', 'hors d'oeuvre' and 'automobile'. Furthermore, if we
discount the racist slander that states that All Negro People Look Alike,
this leaves us with the Evident Truth that states that All Negro People
Look Entirely Different From One Another. Now look at the French! They
look COMPLETELY DIFFERENT FROM BLACK PEOPLE! What else can they be but
Negros?
It is time that archaeological digs were set under way in France to
excavate the Great Zimbabwean Walls of Paris.

Interestng...having looked at the remains of Rameses II, (up close...Im
sorry, I have YET to see a nose like that on any person of so called
nubian heritage. If you are to do a forensic reconstruction on any
number of mummies in Ancient Egypt, you would find that not all of that
society was what would be considered 'black'. The Egyptians, from what I
have been able to surmise, rarely if ever entered 'race' as a
pre-requisite of anyone's value in thier society. Predjudices it seems
are more rampant today than they ever were then.
While it IS true that a great many of Egypt's rulers were 'black' it is
not true to lump all of them together in a feeble attempt to reclaim some
sort of lost history, or set to right some great wrong that happened
during the Victorian era. Was there manipulation in the past on the part
of *mostly* white historians,...probably, but that is NOT the issue. Who
cares REALLY what color Tutankhamun's skin was?
Are we interested in historical accuracy and going by all the evidence
presented, both written and archaeological or not?

On recent UK Egyptology documentaries I've seen a lot of penile
erections depicted in Egyptian friezes. Studiously ignored by Victorian
repressed 'archaeologists'. One recent docu. also postulated that
the center of priestly activity at Karnak centred around the
Holy Wank. Sounds like public display to me...
Whats your real agenda? Your posts are polemic and unscientific.

Well, in a cave somewhat to the north of the first collonade of
Hatshepsut's temple at Deir el-Bahri there is a graffito of somebody
being subjected to what looks to me rather like buggery. It is not
really possible, however, to say whether the penetration is anal or
vaginal (nor indeed whether the recipient is male or female).

Well, that's one theory. It's thought it might be H. getting it from
behind from Senenmut, but its not proven. However, the recipient does
appear to be wearing some form of royal headgear, so it is a real
possibility...
Recently, however, I understood. The pyramids were BUILT by German robots!
Tiny, intergalactic robots of undeniably Teutonic character, led by
Hitler, who survived the fall of Berlin by driving out of the Fuehrerbunker
in a microscopic Panzer Tank up a shaft pointed at the Parts of Orion. It
is a well-known historical fact that Hitler was not a large man. We see
many photographs of Hitler - how many do we see of him standing next to an
object of well-known size, such as General Montgomery? British soldiers of
that time were of fairly standardized dimensions, and there is no reason to
believe that General Montgomery was any exception. Instead, Hitler
contrived always to be photographed with
men whose dimensions have not been adequately recorded by history, such as
Stalin and Neville Chamberlain. Chamberlain, indeed, is well known to have
varied wildly in height according to the phases of the moon. Hitler could
have been six inches tall for all we know, and all the photographs of him
walking around Germany cunning forgeries shot in dolls' houses.German
historians will recall the models of the proposed cyclopaean fascist
architecture of the new Berlin - these were not models! Hitler
actually lived in them, and came out to preach the Final Solution to his
Nazi followers in a high and squeaky voice.
Why is the door in the ventilation shaft of the Great Pyramid of Khufu
closed? *Hitler* is in there, planning the return of the Fourth Reich with
his Nubian Nazi Legions. I propose that a legion of highly trained
Nazi-speaking commandos be miniaturized (using technology the US government
has obtained from aliens by offering human sacrifice, but is concealing
from the General Public) and sent up the ventilation shaft to deal with
Hitler. It Is The Only Way.

It's normally assumed that the person bending over is female and the other
(surprise!) is male, and that they may be respectively Hatshepsut and
Senenmut. There's an article by Murname in the Journal of Near Eastern
Studies some time in the 1980s about it.
There's also the Turin Erotic Papyrus, although my recollections are that
it is "straight".

I second the proposal. Can we do a CFV? Or do we gotta do a proposal
first?
