Up until about the 1700s AD, Egypt was known as an African country. But with the incursions of Napoleon and his armies in2 Egypt, that was soon 2 change. Legend or popular hearsay says that when Napoleon came upon Horamahket (the Great Sphinx) he was so enraged at the giant African face staring back at him, that he ordered his troops 2 open fire at the face of the Great Sphinx. Its said that it took 21 guns 2 blow the nose and lips off the Sphinx. Hence, this is where the 21 gun salute comes from. But after Napoleon, more European archeologists started 2 infiltrate Egypt. They began raiding the tombs of the pharaohs and the queens of ancient Kemet. Parlaying their treasure from their resting places in2 European museums etc. They were well aware that the greatest civilization in the world was indeed one founded by black Africans. With slavery already in place, Whites could not let it be known that the black people they regarded as less than human and had enslaved, were the descendants of the great Africans from antiquity who established the civilization of ancient Egypt. Now during the ancient days of Egypt, Greco-Roman historians like Herodotus and and Lucian, describe the Egyptians as having black skin, broad noses, thick lips and wooly hair. The Greeks and the Romans were the first Europeans 2 come in contact with African people. They were eyewitnesses 2 the indigenous population of the Nile Valley and they wrote down what they saw. But racist European scholars in the 1700s and on, would roundly reject Herodotus, Lucian, Aristotle and other Greek and Roman historians on their description of the indigenous people of Egypt. They simply refused 2 accept that Africans had built Egypt and automatically dismissed the Greeks and the Romans eyewitness accounts. It was in the 1700s or so that German scholars had tried 2 assert Anglo-Saxon white supremacy in 2 world history. They were trying 2 establish that Germans were superior 2 mankind and that white people had established any great civilization they found that they knew was black in origin. The psychopathic racism of Whites 2 deny the obvious still goes on 2 this day. Film producer Ridley Scott has proven that with his upcoming bogus film, Gods and Kings: The Exodus. Some whites r so racist that they will make up any thing 2 defame African folk and deny them their rightful place in human history.
