The funniest thing about American Black Nationalists who identify with Egypt is that even if Egypt were black throughout its history, it would still not be your people. Most American blacks are descended from West and Central Africans, so it would be the equivalent of an American of English descent acting like his ancestors were Russian.
The ones who would have the most merit (albeit little) were the ones enslaved in the Arab Slave Trade, which were brought from East Africa. However, they were usually sterilized so they didn't leave a visible mark in history.
The late kingdom Ptolemaic dynasty that was closer to us historically than predynastic Egypt, the building of the pyramids and old kingdom Egypt clearly shows that ancient Egypt was a black African civilisation. Just like Spanish invading and conquest of Mesoamerica proves that they built their civilisation and even they pyramids in Mexico. Completely proven!
@thomasciuffreda8783. I glad you mentioned "Calmly, fairly, rationally" because now I want you to look at the images on Tutankhamun's Tomb wall and let me know what you think.

I've seen "olive-skinned" used to refer to ANY Mediterranean people (Spanish, Cote d'Azur French, Italian, Greek, Turkish, Syrian, Palestinian, Israeli, Egyptian, Libyan, Tunisian, Algerian, Morrocan). It has traditionally been understood to mean a tanned skin or light brown. Not green, not black.
I agree, and to me the expression, olive skin has always been used, in Britain, to mean a person who has a complexion that was of a slightly pale brown hue. Basically typical of a person indigenous to southern and Mediterranean Europe, or the north of Africa. It had a certain metaphorical meaning, as it refers to the people of southern Europe, where olive trees grew abundantly, and olives were a large part of the peoples diet. At least this is the perception of northern European English speaking people. Where the expression 'olive skinned' comes from.
@@jamessullivan9306 Fair point, I dont think Metatron should use it in a generalised way to describe 'ancient' Egyptians. If he is talking about the ancient Egyptian period that started about 3150 BCE,. During this long time period, the genetic make up of Egyptians will have varied a lot. Though I believe he is talking about the periods from middle kingdom onwards - 1674BCE. The last Egyptian dynasty, ending with the death of Queen Cleopatra and Egypt becoming part of the Roman Empire. I believe Cleopatra and many of the ruling class, could have been described as olive skinned, as they were from Greek origin. He should be clearer about time periods he is talking about during the video..
But again, most of Mediterraneans are fair skinned. The olive complexion it’s an stereotype born from migration of peoples of those countries closer to the Mediterranean basin (and it’s now universal, you can find a lot of Sicilians or Calabrians who look like any other European)
@@jamessullivan9306 the point is in what you think "African" means. If you think it means "black" by default, you are wrong, especially if we refer to North and East Africa where Egypt has and had most of its own surface. If you mean "African"as being on the huge geographical platform you are correct and then you can reach a better understanding downgrading the relevance of skin tone. Olive skin is a good guess for many ancient Egyptians, of course not the only possibility and maybe not even the majority but it's more likely than imagining a wholly Nigerian look alike nation
@@gainzcreed6613 Aswan is the home of the Nubians, they are their own NATIVE ethnic group(not Kushites, they descend from the ancient Wawat Nubians and historically were not our enemy like Kush was) they have always interacted with us and are one of the nicest laid back and kind people you'll find in Egypt. They are also Arab because they SPEAK ARABIC😂
@@dbach1025Someone should make a spoof hotep movement based around the "Ignor-Ami", a race entirely of Yakub-like beings, who created the universe. They were black, and from time to time they are reborn into the African American population to uncover the truth that whitey is hiding using the means of digital media sharing, a black invention.
I just about died when that Cleopatra thing came out because of how much of a headache it was. We have statues of the Egyptians in other dynasties and know what Cleopatra’s family tumbleweed was like.
@@sweethistortea Yeah, and the worst part is that as anyone who knows much of anything about the Ptolemy dynasty? They, and by extension Cleopatra herself, were Greek rather than Eagyptian.
Megaton. Thank you very very much for shedding light on the truth of who the ancient Egyptians were. I’m an Egyptian myself and seeing you defend the TRUTH is music to my ears. Again, thank you very much and god bless you.
Fortunately you have mountains of evidence on your side. But i don't envy you, i've noticed a lot of egyptians being harrassed and called arab invaders by americans. It must be annoying.
@@avielau7333You mean mountains of lies. The original Egyptians have African origins that came from within Africa. It the descendants of foreigners we see today claiming a culture that has nothing to do with them.
Africa is a continent not a color. Multiple races call it home. Genetic studies have settled the debate about ancient Egyptians, but some refuse to accept it.

The joke referring to Metatrons mom was so low, comes to show they have no interest on the interchange of arguments or ideas, let alone the desire of research and discovery, purely blinded by sensationalistic feelings. The fanatism born out the need of an identity that promises the individual feel special and above his peers, just ends up creating these dehumanizing ideologies. The cicle just repits and the only cure is history devoided of these passions.
The "what do you mean with olive skin" point of those people is super stupid. They have an internet access. They just have to type "olive skin color" in any search engine they like and get dozens of pictures and explanations what it means. I too dont know every possible descriptors to every thing out there but if I see a unfamiliar one and interests me AND if I wanna use it in a discussion the least thing I can do is to look it up real quick.
See, that's an English native issue, specifically. They think they know about their language everything, and just because Metatron is not a native, they feel superior and will belittle him for every word they don't know.
They do not want to know. They want to stay ignorant. They like their little bubble of madness where they feed themselves their own vomit over and over again.
Holy hell, I had only a vague idea of what "ontological" means, but even with that alone, I wheezed when he described it as "the study of the supernatural". WTF xD Even in the philosophical sense, that's the most naive understanding of this word I can imagine.
Instead of rewriting history, people like KueliMika should use their time and research skills to study the rich and underrated history of sub-Saharan Africa. There are so many unique cultures and ancient civilizations in this region that very few people know or talk about.
There is, unfortunately most of the only known parts are the more horrible gruesome facts, not to say that those aren't interesting, but the bad kinda creates its own image, if not equally weighed by the good at the same time.
@@napoleonfeanor yeah I know, I was referencing the people who research about it, a lot of info these days focusses on the more horrible side of history than the good to avoid glorifying anything, so it oftens doesn't give a nice reflection of the culture.
Yep, and that's one of the reasons the modern left / progressives are so terrible at debating, logic and seeing inconsistencies. They never have to debate their ideas within their ideology, so they've had zero practice at it. That's also why they always fall back on accusations of racism/sexism/transphobia/islamaphobia etc when arguing outside their bubble. I remember as a kid doing debates and how it was easier to craft a logical and consistent debate if you were arguing for the side you didn't emotionally agree with. This will be something the right will have to remember when it becomes the dominant ideology again, so we don't fall into the same trap.
Being a NeanderthaI with 4% hybrid NeanderthaI dna, neandertron will ignore obvious cues, Kuelimika diagnosed him with lack of intellectual rigour, but its much more pathological than that, his NeanderthaI brain will continue to defy logical arguments and continue to move the goal post. He will continue to ignore the old kingdom statues, with obvious hairstyles Islamic invasion of 600-711 Lack of continuity with tanning arguments And lack of conviction Egyptians to publicly test the mummies At the end of the day his opinion doesn’t matter (it has no substance or scientific grounding), He is infact just another delusional NeanderthaI.
Better at what..What team? He brings up his own ideas of what he thinks and not actual scientific or historical facts.. All the other 3 made very creditable arguments.. Go listen first before you make judgements..

Egypt is located in northeastern Africa. A large portion of it is located in Asia. Egypt is an African-Asian country. It is a country in the Middle East. Most of its people live in northern Egypt, specifically in the Delta. All this will tell you that we were and still are closer to the Mediterranean and the Levant. Well, the Egyptians and Greeks were similar to each other. Look for the statue of the seated scribe and the statue of Rahotep and his wife, both made before the pyramids were built. Look for statues of Ramesses II, Khafre, Nefertiti, Horemheb, and other statues. Search for the mummy of Ramesses II, Yuya, Tuya, Teti, Tuthmosis IV, etc. Scientists examined Tutankhamun's DNA and found that 70% of men in Britain, 60% of men in France and 40% of Spanish men shared the same DNA, so Egypt was closer to Europe than you might think. . Some Africans and Berbers have immigrated to Egypt in the last 500 years, so some current Egyptians are less white than the ancient Egyptians. And yes, the Cretan civilization (Minoan civilization) used to color men red and women white, just as the Egyptians did, and this civilization had a great relationship with Egypt. Type (pictures of the Minoan civilization) in Google, which is the ancient civilization of Crete. Look for Fayoum Portraits, which are pictures of ancient Egyptians in central Egypt..
@elijahmorris6534there was a mention that he was racist by saying southern Egyptians were not as "signifcant" ( from the person criticing metatron) so yes this does have an importance with the conversation
@elijahmorris6534 I've been watching him for years now and do history at university, I like the way in which he represents himself and references himself , he makes convincing arguements and is by no means got a political agenda behind him , he attacks both left and right wing arguments , he is also significantly more clever than me and uses information well , so no he is not racist he argued what may not be popular, and I have watched some of the videos he is responding to (they're 10 hours I can't be bothered to watch all that ) and find their arguments significantly less convincing or coherent
Isn't differentiating humans based on skin tone already a racist concept? Its clearly an easy way to differentiate people superficially, but also a gross over-simplyfication and an aritificial categorization of humans. And I think to view people through this categorization can quickly turn into classic racist ideas, stereotyping and discrimination. Your opinion here matters more simply because you stated you are "black". This just shows how much value we still associate to these artificial categories.
@@Egyptologist777 Is that why you shit on Even sub-Saharan cultures and call Black people low IQ? Guys like Metatron are fair and impartial, but I know what crowd you flirt with...

"Olive skinned" is a pretty common term, typically used to refer to Spanish and Greek peoples in my experience. If someone has a darker tone it's usually termed "dark olive" to distinguish it.
@@skepticalbadger Google “olive skin tone.” Yes it often refers to mid range skin color, but if you think of the actual color-green/gold-it makes more sense to describe an undertone rather than the depth of pigmentation.
I find it ironic that they would complain of your use of "Afrocentrism," but they throw out the label of "Liar" and "racist" constantly. I appreciate your wit as well as your respectfulness and professionalism. On the other hand, the other channels constantly come off incredibly arrogant and smug. I really appreciate the time and effort you put into this video brother.
that's the difference between Metatron who is well educated and smart but a genuinely nice guy and those 3 guys who have no educations and very low IQ and have no respect for anyone.
@@metatronytAfter watching the whole video, it's my opinion that your opponents are simply being immature and taking cheap shots at you. I really appreciated your willingness to examine the details. We don't have to be either Afro or Eurocentric, we can just be curious about Africa and historical facts, right? Most reasonable people will see the logic in this, I believe. Btw- you pointed out he distorted your voice. I think he did the same thing with his only he made it deeper. That is really something. Anyway, thanks and take care!
The sad truth is, in the end, none of them are going to care about this video assuming they watch it at all. In the end these people don't care about truth and in the end it's not about debate, it's about discrediting anyone who disagrees with them no matter how maliciously.

As someone who translates very very old Japanese stories and puts them on here out of love for ancient Japanese history, I can understand wishing certain things about history were different, but never at any point has that made me deny what reality actually is. If you spend your whole life cutting yourself off from what actually is in support and pursuit of your empty, idyllic vision of what you want reality to be, you are setting yourself up for major, major disappointment, a truth that the ancient Japanese, with their strong tradition of Buddhism, repeatedly attest to.
I'd bet Japan's native Shinto beliefs also aren't particularly friendly to living in delusion. Most mythologies that came from very early peoples just trying to survive wouldn't last very long if they were. Lol
What you're doing is the grunt work of achedemics, sadly it tends to be ignored in favor of political propaganda but when that propaganda fades away into obscurity as the times change and their delusions fall apart your work will be the one that lasts and influences others to continue telling stories with real meaning.
@@jaredgilmore3102 you know, I've thought much in the same way over the past several years. One can only hope that propaganda fades sooner rather than later and that it does so with taking as little of the good down with it as possible.

To the commenters who say, "why make this video? These people's minds can't be changed." Essentially, yes; the ideologues' views are not easily swayed.

Ancient Egypt was an African civilisation because it was located in Africa. The mistake is to equate all of Africa as ‘Black’ (implying only sub Saharan). For example if you look at the contiguous continent of Eurasia you see many ethnicities from Europeans in the west to Chinese in the East and many others in between. Why assume that something similar isn’t the case North to South in the contiguous continent of Africa? After all, the San people are distinct from the Bantu. Then consider North Africa is attached to and closer to the Eurasian continent than others parts of Africa, and the North is physically cut off by the Sahara desert. Egypt is a stone’s throw away from the Middle East/ Levant where modern civilisation - such as the Sumerians - began. Forget the overwhelming historical and genetic evidence that ancient Egyptians looked much as they do today, just look at a map.
No man, you've got it all wrong they are all one people with no distinct cultures across the entire continent... all joking aside, that is the most frustrating thing about this whole back and forth is that people can't figure out that the culture can ebe and flow or stay the same for 10-2000 years just like the melanin in your skin through reproduction or mutation. Things change, and the fact people can't get that into their heads without it becoming a mud fight is ridiculous.
Because someone told them that humans started in Africa. That the Europeans came from Africa originally and migrated there long before any of these civilizations existed. Which is apparently true, but aoso apparently makes them believe that all Africans were black in the time of these civilizations. I may be wrong, but after looking into things that are happening in the States, it's mainly caused by people being upset because of things that happened during the early days of the Americas. A lot of things have come to light lately that have African Americans panties in a bunch, as well as a lot of upset Caucasians. 1 is the revelation that the Europeans originated in Africa. Evidence of the migration turned up and was reported within the last 5 yrs. There are as many Caucasians that want to dispute that as African Americans that want to use it to their advantage. History with Kayliegh has some good, easy to understand videos about this. Second is some European nation paid a bunch of former slaves relatives for the atrocities of a different time, and the African Americans had a few wins in this stuff too, but were also informed that they were slaves before they came here so couldn't continue to blame the Americans as their sole oppressors. This is what I've been told and pieced together from several other TH-cam channels, from all sides. 3rd would be a certain streaming platforms recent adaptations of historical events and the inaccuracies that are products of politics rather than facts causing debate. I'm sorry that is long. That was a great question and I felt the need to answer it. I feel I need to state that what I have said is a summarization of what I have learned from multiple TH-cam channels, on all sides of this argument. Some of it may be misinterpretation on my part, some of it may be wrong. But it's part of what I believe is the answer to your question. The rest is out there for you to find.
Ask yourself how many significant historical figures were black (prior to slavery or colonization) ... the answer will be very close to zero if not zero. That's why.
@@darrinrebagliati5365 what they seem to forget is that with their own logic that humans were originally black, also means that black people invented slavery. I've seen they usually have no comeback to it, as it erases their victimhood mentality.
I am stunned at the level of respect with which you treat your own critics, and the responses you make for the sake of pursuing truth and transparency, not for defending yourself against baseless personal attacks. And on top of that, everything is done and said with great humility. Truly impressive. I wish that all internet "debaters" would follow your example, instead of creating tribal communities that orbit the "debaters", and not the facts. Bravo! Amazing video.
Egypt is located in northeastern Africa. A large portion of it is located in Asia. Egypt is an African-Asian country. It is a country in the Middle East. Most of its people live in northern Egypt, specifically in the Delta. All this will tell you that we were and still are closer to the Mediterranean and the Levant. Well, the Egyptians and Greeks were similar to each other. Look for the statue of the seated scribe and the statue of Rahotep and his wife, both made before the pyramids were built. Look for statues of Ramesses II, Khafre, Nefertiti, Horemheb, and other statues. Search for the mummy of Ramesses II, Yuya, Tuya, Teti, Tuthmosis IV, etc. Scientists examined Tutankhamun's DNA and found that 70% of men in Britain, 60% of men in France and 40% of Spanish men shared the same DNA, so Egypt was closer to Europe than you might think. . Some Africans and Berbers have immigrated to Egypt in the last 500 years, so some current Egyptians are less white than the ancient Egyptians. And yes, the Cretan civilization (Minoan civilization) used to color men red and women white, just as the Egyptians did, and this civilization had a great relationship with Egypt. Type (pictures of the Minoan civilization) in Google, which is the ancient civilization of Crete. Look for Fayoum Portraits, which are pictures of ancient Egyptians in central Egypt.

@xevn7413 it kind of is though. Imhotep and his crew are trying to promote the "we wuz kangz" afrocentricity concept which completely undermines any academic understanding of history they claim to have.
It's not that people find being called "Afrocentric" as undermining. It's that people who seek to discredit certain arguments OFTEN throw around the term "Afrocentrist" in order to undermine their claims...and of course you know this.
Thing is, if they'd do some actual research they'd find out they DO have some interesting history. It's just not very advanced and featured in Hollywood. So they know jack shit about it.
In their defense, the entire power structure of the United States of America from the political class to the mass media to entertainment to academia is designed to make them feel good

It's frustrating to the max that Metatron, like most of us, has to deal with idiots on a daily basis. Why does Metatron have to waste his time with this stupidity?
Because they only see in black and white (literally 😅). They only see him as a "right wing racist" and can't see that he is simply applying objective academic logic. In someways it sums up current thinking of society. Ironically the far left is equally disregarding scientific rigor as much as the far right.
Are you not entertained? I am! It’s fun to watch Metatron deal with this stuff, just like it’s fun to watch him get frustrated with minor historical inaccuracies in movies. Now that I think of it, he’s fun to watch get frustrated, like Gene Wilder.
the greek term μελας= black was also used as a nickname for one of alexander's soldiers cleitus the black in order to distinguish him from cleitus the white, according to afrocentrists one was black african and the other germanic looking european lol
That’s like Netflix logic. They make people either blue eye blondes or west Africans. They never seen an Italian or a Middle Eastern in their life it seems hahahah
@@marcobelli6856 yeah mediterranean reality (North Africa, near East , South Europe) looks like the def fatality for Netflix and racists scheme , the triumph of nuance 😁
This is utterly dishonest unless Cleitus was described as an Ethiopian in appearance, in the same way the Egyptians were. Clearly the Ancient Greeks knew the Ancient Egyptians of late Bronze Age were black Africans. So why complicate very simple issues? What is the motivation here, besides prejudice?
I started laughing at the what is Olive skin stuff. My thought was initially “well only a guy would think that” because anyone whose spent any time having to buy foundation knew exactly what you were referring too.
@@vonbennett6545Olive skin typically signifies a “green” hue or undertone to the skin. Italians are typically signified as having olive skin, and at the same time, Egyptians, who are much much darker, also have an olive undertone.
I grew up around Mestizos and Filipinos,so,"olive skinned" is familiar.However in Texas I have seen blond white roofers who were darker than any of the people I grew up around.
@@marieparker3822 Osiris is actually only ever depicted with black skin. The green skin variation signifys him being dead. Hope this clears that up for you.
Metatron, where are you going to realize they are not arguing in good faith? Accusing you of lying and claiming the academics you received help from don’t exist are bad faith arguments. You are trying to find the truth in a conversation with people who have no interest in it.
I believe it’s not necessarily to change their minds. I think his main goal is showing his audience what these people are trying to pull and hopefully expose this to skeptics within the audience. I’m almost certain he’s fully aware that these critics arguing against him have no interest in truth.
You're exactly right these kind of people, regardless of race, are the types to move goal posts in order to make you look inept. Sometimes you're honesty is being used against you by dishonest people because they know that you are naive enough to believe them if given some measure of credential such as a TH-cam channel or a sponsorship from another individual.
I find it concenrning that they call everyone they disagree with "liar" and claim that Metatron is acting in bad faith by calling them Afrocentrists when they happily call him Eurocentrist. Also, claiming that the entirety of Europe is blame for "stealing Egypt" is the most hyperbolic thing I've ever read. And the olive skin part is just embarrassing. They go deep into semantics and false equivalences to prove their point, it's just embarrassing.
Oh.....that was a waste of space. LOL can you provide some substance to back up what you are saying? I mean, Europe literally STOLE from Egypt LMAO and most of the world. Most museums prove that point.

@@uniformityofnature1488 which part? I am honestly curious as to why you support this strange idea of some sort of black only ancient Egypt? It kind of reminds me of flat earthers, in which they impose the flat earth, and they twist the data to fit with their view. In actuality, you should let the data tell the story telling.
We HAVE statues, wall art, and dozens more images of the Egyptians showing them with copper skin tones. ( The statue of Prince Rahotep and his wife Nofret) Prince of Egypt, a movie released in 1998, is more historically accurate with the Egyptians than that Cleopatra show Netflix tried to do. I don’t understand why people ever questioned how the Egyptians looked to start with.
As a Scandinavian (with a Bachelor degree in Scandinavian history from a prestigious danish University) i can confirm, my ancestors did indeed say "blue men".. It appears both in Scandinavian "viking age" history regarding encounters with the moors in Spain and people along the north African coast and it appears in the old Norse linguistics, which any Norse linguistics expert will confirm. I will even point you to a professor in Norse linguistics that can verify. Blue in these cases were used to describe something dark, darker than the pale Scandinavians and north Europeans. I believe that Jackson Crawford has an entire video about the use of (and meaning of) blue in old Norse linguistics. He is a professor in Norse linguistics with a TH-cam channel.
You're saying 'As's Scandinavian' as if that's more valid than existing historical sources. As long as you're not a legit time traveler, your confirmation doesn't hold validity over historical records.
@@lunafencoven Then let us try this approach.. I have a bachelor in Scandinavian history from a prestigious danish University. I teach in excactly Scandinavian history and i have 1.. soon 2 books with my name on them regarding excactly Scandinavian history. I can ofcourse not tell you my name here, since doxing from people wanting to re-write history is very real. So.. where do you want to go from here? I can tell you as a Scandinavian with a Bachelor in Scandinavian history, you will not find anyone able to tell me how my own ancestry and history is. Further i did, you might have skipped it because thats how people like you often play, i did name a professor in Norse linguistics by name and i did let people know exactly where to find him and the evidence. If you still doubt my words, its as easy as you going to his channel and finding the video regarding the use of "blue" and the "blue" men.. everyone can go have a look or even contact him. I would expect any serious person had looked it up BEFORE trying to raise doubt about something like this.. but i guess facts and evidence are not practical when you want to raise doubt 😉 But do yourself a favor, go look it up.. its as easy as making yourself look silly in the comment section, just less people laughing at you afterwards.. win/win i would say 😉 And remember, unless you are a time traveler, you also have no valid argument that what im saying isnt real or the truth.. it goes both ways. Your claim is however not worth as much as mine, since you havnt pointed in the direction of a real specialist in Norse linguistics that has another opinion. And again, i told everyone excactly where to search out the validation of my words.. I wish you better luck next time 🙂

I am Egyptian, and what bothers me most isn’t when some Afrocentrists say that Egyptians were Black. What really troubles me is when people from southern and western African countries try so hard to prove that Egyptians were black, which they think means that they themselves are Egyptians too. This idea implies according to them that I -someone born and raised in Egypt with Egyptian grandparents- am not a “real” Egyptian just because I am not Black. It disturbs me how some of these claims don’t even make sense. It’s like an Italian saying that the ancestors of people in Sweden were Romans, just because they are all Europeans. I don’t understand how proving that Egyptians were Black means that someone from Congo (just as an example) is Egyptian or that their ancestors helped build Egyptian civilization. It doesn’t prove that current Egyptians aren’t “real” Egyptians either.
Speaking of the part with dutch farmers and blaing europeans for stuff that happened in the colonial age. Those kind of people forget that there were people in europe who were not only not conquerers, but were the ones being conquered and oppressed. Or were even slaves. Im talking about slavs. Countries like Poland or the balkan slavs that got conquered by Austria-Hungary or the venetians or the ottomans. Hell even the english word slave, comes from the word slav because slavs were taken as slaves by the Muslims of Spain during the 9th century. When people think of slavs, they only think of big Russia.
Slavs are not English right? So why are we lumping all Europeans together? They were clearly referring to Western Europe....you know, the ones that actually participated in the slave trade. And they did that while knowing about the Slavs.....so yes, they were terrible people.
@@apitterson17 when someone lumps Europe or speaks about white europeans, i assume they are lumping all together. Because they broadly generalize it. When people like that critique white people as monsters like that, i bring up the counterpoint that not all white europeans are like that and that some have suffered like they say black people did Im sorry if my reply isnt optimally worded. Im on phone and keeping my reply as short possible
@@apitterson17afrocentrist always blame Europe without mentioning which part of Europe who actually behaved like that in the past, Slavs are Europe and some of them are enslaved by muslim slavery for long time. Heck afrocentrist also hiding the fact that their very ancestor are enslaving each other even way before Europe united under the banner of Rome
@@apitterson17 Africans also participated in the slave trade, many slaves were bought from African slave traders by the Europeans. You might also want to look up the Barbary pirates, North Africans who sent ships to Europe to capture slaves from coastal areas.
@@apitterson17laying down such an absurd statement “so yes, they were terrible people” is ridiculous. Imagine I defined west Africans that way simply due to the fact that certain tribes sold other tribes into slavery? It’s misguided & ignorant, man.

Saying ancient Egyptians were black because Egypt is in Africa is like saying the ancient Chinese were Indian because China is in Asia. It’s just a stupid argument.
It has nothing to do with africa, black people had civilisations outside of africa - just look up estruscan black figure pottery that was being made and popularised in the southern Europe during 700BC.
@@dieu5041you realise 700BC is not very long ago and we know for a fact that there were no Black civilisations in Italy at that time. Pottery doesn’t change any of that. Like how do you even get the idea Etruscan pottery means there were black rulers there?
@@kye4216 because they depicted themselves as black on the pottery? It wasn’t until they were conquered that the way they represented themselves changed from black figure to red figure. Literally search when red figure pottery came about and search when the estruscans were conquered, both happened around the same time.
@@dieu5041 all the designs were drawn in black that was just the colour they used. They used it for animals and shapes too. There no evidence of a black civilisation in Italy. People using black paint on pots doesn’t change that.
The funny part is, that all of my Kenyan friends consider Ethiopians brown and not black, because they are half-Semites (according to them).

The fun thing about trying to figure out what Ancient Egyptians looked like... I always have to ask, "how ancient?" Egypt has been under the control of just about everyone in the region at one point or another.
That is correct but core of population is stable since neolithic times. Thats because Nile is one of most fertile rivers and like Mesopotamia and Chinese rivers when farming revolution begin it hold one of most massive population of farmers. And when you are barbaric Nubian, Berbers, Arab, Greek or Roman conquerer - you want not fancy pyramides, you want those farmers to keep growing food on this great Kemetic soil - so you can control it. And that's why population of Egypt like China was not really replaced despite being often ruled by foreigners.
@@szymonlechdzieciol except it has major ports and migration, outside of just being conqured. Also, there definitely have been drastic climate changes throughout Northern Africa to have changed much of the population. Rise and fall of dynasties, plus the population moving south during famine, etc. There likely is as much of a core population there that is in the USA.

@@thesoulbrother8636It's disingenous to believe that the only people from Africa are "black". You are talking about a region who had 39 dynasties of rulers, some of which were not even from Africa. Egypt has a rich history that covers thousands of years. You do yourself a disservice by assuming that you are the only race that has had any impact on the society in Egypt. You also do everyone else a disservice by assuming that every white person is the same, with the same experiences and the same history. You are embodying the saying, "Assumptions make an ass out of you and me" by not educating yourself on the history of the region that you are supposedly supporting. There are multiple dynasties that cover several thousands of years of ruling from multiple families over time. Assuming they are all the same race does them a disservice.
I live in Kazakhstan, Central Asia, an ethnically diverse country where people have a wide range of facial features. Some look Iranian or Turkish, others Korean or Mongolian, still others could be considered to resemble northern Europeans or Indians - most are a mix of all of the above, and all consider themselves Kazakh. This is because over hundreds of years the region was populated and conquered from all sides, and the Silk Road trade routes meant a huge amount of cultural blending. I imagine ancient Egypt to have been somewhat similar.
@@kekeke8988 I'm afraid I don't know the research on that so I won't disagree, but I am fairly sure that only a very small percentage of people at the time were mummified, so that would really only tell you about those who were, it wouldn't really represent a cross-section of the society. What I do know is that the world today is only divided into races in our minds, and we all have a rich and complex mixed heritage, so there's no reason to think that would not be the case a few thousand years ago, which is only a small part of the full history of our species.
@@HappyCodingZXHey, fellow Kazakhstan citizen here) While mummification was never an affordable process and we effectively get a slice of the “upper crust” of society, there is no real reason I believe to doubt that these people were significantly different than the ones they ruled over, (except in cases where an invasion was recorded like with the Hyksos, the Nubians, the Greeks etc.).
@@sapsaniy703 Actually I'm from the UK, I just live in your wonderful country. As for the mummies, you may be right, but my main point was that it's a very small sample size and not the smoking gun that some would wish it to be. I would also argue that evidence throughout history from all around the world suggests that those with power and wealth tend to be more selective about who they marry and have children with and are more likely to stay within their own genetic circles because they believe it to be politically prudent to do so.

I’ve been waiting for this one. It’s a huge shame time is wasted debating the race of Egypt when the rest of the continent has so many cultures and histories the average person knows nothing about. I’m happy we have channels like From Nothing that showcase bits of this history. This is why I’m motivated to start making content shedding more light on the rest of the continent rather than drool over Egypt like these guys. That being said I do know there were black people in Egypt just as there were Mediterranean, Levantine and native North African type people. It was a melting pot from the beginning, some people had characteristics seen in Sudan and the horn, others looked Levantine and Mediterranean. Why is it so hard to accept this fact?
Both sides are trying claim everything for themselves. Khemitologist Stephen Mehler said the early Egyptian tribes crossed the Sahara from west Africa before it was desert. Obviously Semitic tribes to the north invaded Egyptian because it is literally in middle of the Mediterranean. Semitic languages themselves have nothing in common with Indo European so they are probably African too. The only real historical origin of race that makes any sense is ancient astronaut theory.

This was only 70 years ago. Usually, you trace your ancestors from town/village/city records. Not birth certificates.
Olive refers more to the undertones. It doesn't mean dark or light, it has a wide range in that regard. I have olive skin and I'm pretty light but it has an obvious greenish/yellowish undertone because I'm Mediterranean.
Same here. I can also tan well, but the under tone is slightly green. Slavic/Norse mix by the way. I think it is beautiful that we have so many diverse looking people in the world. Some people just like to argue to hear their chin wag.
It’s not necessarily that, the idea of “olive undertone” it’s more modern. An olive complexion would be someone like Orlando Bloom, Matteo Bocelli or even George Clooney

@@ianmacdiarmid1249 I don’t have biases, you refuse to face the truth. All the evidence ties back to the roots which is indigenous Africans. Since you claim I’m bias, then tell me why did the first Pharoah come from the interior of Africa?
@The_Truth- he didn't. DNA analysis of mummies shows Egyptians had less sub Saharan DNA than modern Egyptians. There was one dynasty of Pharoahs from Nubia, the 25th. Rest were Egyptian until the Ptolemeic, who were Macedonian. You do have a bias. It's obvious. Everyone has a bias. It's whether you're aware and take steps to counter it. But I guess we waz kangz is good enough for you.
@@ianmacdiarmid1249 This is why it’s important for you to put the phone down and read a book. The 25th dynasty is not the only dynasty that had a black African Pharoah. The first Pharoah is a black African too. He came from the interior of Africa, the culture is African that was started in the interior of Africa. They have Narmer’s bust, he was clearly an indigenous African who were Nilotic people. He came from upper Egypt. Proven me wrong. The Nile runs north, or south. The south conquered the north, the clothing is African, the hairstyles is African, they drew themselves on walls so thy dark brown skin and distinct African hairstyles, clothing, artifacts, jewelry, cultural practices. Mummification is an African practice. Didn’t know that? Berbers, Levantines, Coptics, Mediterraneans, Romans, Greeks do not originate in Africa. They came much later.
I follow all of these channels and I hope the debate remains healthy. It would be good to hear your take on the subject of hair as it relates to phenotype as I think there is definitely something to be said about how the braiding practices and hairstyles of ancient Egypt depicted in the wall paintings are still practiced by many black African tribes today. It still aligns with your multiethnic argument but I found it quite an interesting take from these creators that is never spoken about in the mainstream discussions of ancient Egypt and phenotype. Black African people have a unique hair type that is common in many cases only to them. Appreciate your views on this
Why do you think they don’t talk about it? Because it hits to close to the truth, so they have to sway this into a false narrative of excuse. This was one of the thing Cheik Diop brought to the table at the 1974 Cairo symposium and embarrassed a whole team of so called Egyptologists.

Pan africanists and black nationalists fail to mention that africa is by no means a monolith, it is an entire continent full of different cultures and civilizations. Most american blacks are descended from cultures that had very little, if any, contact with egypt. Its like if some random guy from a swedish immigrant family in thr US claimed to be descended from roman nobility because at one point his ancestors lived in Europe. And thats another funny thing about them, every single one of these people like to larp as egyptian royalty, when its far more likely that, if any of their ancestors even lived near Egypt, its far more likely they'd have been nile farmer #173728 who died after farting near a crocodile. Plus, why not just study sub saharan african culture, which is highly underrated and very often misrepresented? Most of them are throwing their actual ancestry in the garbage bin to larp as egyptians.
The confusion came from comparison to Europeans and panEuropean ideas but Europe is much smaller continent and since IE invasion it was sort of one cultural zone. Sort of. Africa is way bigger and divided.
Aye, most brought to North America came from the Niger river region. Huge trade in slaves after the Songhai Empire was smashed by the Moroccans and all the rump states fought each other, trading slaves to the Europeans for muskets for their wars.
@@szymonlechdzieciol Just the IE invasion? Neolithic Europe was already quite homogenic with most of the population being in big part of Middle eastern/Anatolian origin. Actually most modern Europeans are a mixture of 3 ancient ancestries, albeit in varying proportions. The diversity of Africa is incomparably greater.

I learned the term "olive-skinned" from my olive-skinned mother. My brother was even more so. Black olives are not naturally black, but made so during the canning process, as with several other color types.
Ripe olives assume a very dark purple colour which to the eye absolutely makes them appear black. Are canned olives not produced with the ripened fruit?
@@jonnywaldis8275 Black olives are picked when brown to dark brown. The deep black color of olives is set durring the curring process. Some may be darker on the vine, but most obtain their signature black color durring curring.
@thetruth45678 I can only assume that we must be talking about different kinds of olives then. I have grown, harvested and cured them with different methods for many years and they blackened just fine on the vine or maintained a relatively light colour when cured early. To me a brown olive is also rotten, which is my primary reason to believe we may be talking about different kinds.

I've seen "olive-skinned" used to refer to ANY Mediterranean people (Spanish, Cote d'Azur French, Italian, Greek, Turkish, Syrian, Palestinian, Israeli, Egyptian, Libyan, Tunisian, Algerian, Morrocan). It has traditionally been understood to mean a tanned skin or light brown. Not green, not black.
I agree, and to me the expression, olive skin has always been used, in Britain, to mean a person who has a complexion that was of a slightly pale brown hue. Basically typical of a person indigenous to southern and Mediterranean Europe, or the north of Africa. It had a certain metaphorical meaning, as it refers to the people of southern Europe, where olive trees grew abundantly, and olives were a large part of the peoples diet. At least this is the perception of northern European English speaking people. Where the expression 'olive skinned' comes from.
So do we think that term is appropriate to describe an African civilization with a sizable brown and hey black skinned population?
@@jamessullivan9306 Fair point, I dont think Metatron should use it in a generalised way to describe 'ancient' Egyptians. If he is talking about the ancient Egyptian period that started about 3150 BCE,. During this long time period, the genetic make up of Egyptians will have varied a lot. Though I believe he is talking about the periods from middle kingdom onwards - 1674BCE. The last Egyptian dynasty, ending with the death of Queen Cleopatra and Egypt becoming part of the Roman Empire. I believe Cleopatra and many of the ruling class, could have been described as olive skinned, as they were from Greek origin. He should be clearer about time periods he is talking about during the video..
But again, most of Mediterraneans are fair skinned. The olive complexion it’s an stereotype born from migration of peoples of those countries closer to the Mediterranean basin (and it’s now universal, you can find a lot of Sicilians or Calabrians who look like any other European)
@@jamessullivan9306 the point is in what you think "African" means. If you think it means "black" by default, you are wrong, especially if we refer to North and East Africa where Egypt has and had most of its own surface. If you mean "African"as being on the huge geographical platform you are correct and then you can reach a better understanding downgrading the relevance of skin tone. Olive skin is a good guess for many ancient Egyptians, of course not the only possibility and maybe not even the majority but it's more likely than imagining a wholly Nigerian look alike nation
Some black people tend to call anything darker than white "black". I think that is part of the problem.
Astute observation.

I remember as a kid doing debates and how it was easier to craft a logical and consistent debate if you were arguing for the side you didn't emotionally agree with.
This will be something the right will have to remember when it becomes the dominant ideology again, so we don't fall into the same trap.

@elijahmorris6534 I've been watching him for years now and do history at university, I like the way in which he represents himself and references himself , he makes convincing arguements and is by no means got a political agenda behind him , he attacks both left and right wing arguments , he is also significantly more clever than me and uses information well , so no he is not racist he argued what may not be popular, and I have watched some of the videos he is responding to (they're 10 hours I can't be bothered to watch all that ) and find their arguments significantly less convincing or coherent
Isn't differentiating humans based on skin tone already a racist concept? Its clearly an easy way to differentiate people superficially, but also a gross over-simplyfication and an aritificial categorization of humans. And I think to view people through this categorization can quickly turn into classic racist ideas, stereotyping and discrimination.
Your opinion here matters more simply because you stated you are "black". This just shows how much value we still associate to these artificial categories.
"I called him a liar and a racist, why isn't he nice to me?" They're not just clowns, they're a whole circus.
They're raised on american women. They will bend the knee if called racist.

Amazing how black nats claim every ancient civilization in history, apart from the black ones, lol.
"Olive skinned" is a pretty common term, typically used to refer to Spanish and Greek peoples in my experience. If someone has a darker tone it's usually termed "dark olive" to distinguish it.
Yet the afrocentrist youtubers pretend they never heard it before... Even I know what it means, and I'm a moron!
Olive skinned=Eva Mendes skin for example 😅😅
“Olive” technically denotes a skin color with a sort of a greenish undertone, not the level of pigmentation
@@MayakranThat's not how it's popularly used. It absolutely denotes a skin tone.
@@skepticalbadger Google “olive skin tone.” Yes it often refers to mid range skin color, but if you think of the actual color-green/gold-it makes more sense to describe an undertone rather than the depth of pigmentation.
I find it ironic that they would complain of your use of "Afrocentrism," but they throw out the label of "Liar" and "racist" constantly. I appreciate your wit as well as your respectfulness and professionalism. On the other hand, the other channels constantly come off incredibly arrogant and smug.

Look for statues of Ramesses II, Khafre, Nefertiti, Horemheb, and other statues. Search for the mummy of Ramesses II, Yuya, Tuya, Teti, Tuthmosis IV, etc. Scientists examined Tutankhamun's DNA and found that 70% of men in Britain, 60% of men in France and 40% of Spanish men shared the same DNA, so Egypt was closer to Europe than you might think. . Some Africans and Berbers have immigrated to Egypt in the last 500 years, so some current Egyptians are less white than the ancient Egyptians.

As someone who translates very very old Japanese stories and puts them on here out of love for ancient Japanese history, I can understand wishing certain things about history were different, but never at any point has that made me deny what reality actually is. If you spend your whole life cutting yourself off from what actually is in support and pursuit of your empty, idyllic vision of what you want reality to be, you are setting yourself up for major, major disappointment, a truth that the ancient Japanese, with their strong tradition of Buddhism, repeatedly attest to.
I'd bet Japan's native Shinto beliefs also aren't particularly friendly to living in delusion. Most mythologies that came from very early peoples just trying to survive wouldn't last very long if they were. Lol
Thats really cool mate, nice work 👍
What you're doing is the grunt work of achedemics, sadly it tends to be ignored in favor of political propaganda but when that propaganda fades away into obscurity as the times change and their delusions fall apart your work will be the one that lasts and influences others to continue telling stories with real meaning.
@@jaredgilmore3102 you know, I've thought much in the same way over the past several years.

However, videos like this are extremely important to the people who are undecided, or have preconceived notions but are willing to hear the opposition.

Thank you I appreciate 🙏🏻
do you look at the other chanels research?
Ancient Egypt was an African civilisation because it was located in Africa. The mistake is to equate all of Africa as ‘Black’ (implying only sub Saharan). For example if you look at the contiguous continent of Eurasia you see many ethnicities from Europeans in the west to Chinese in the East and many others in between. Why assume that something similar isn’t the case North to South in the contiguous continent of Africa? After all, the San people are distinct from the Bantu. Then consider North Africa is attached to and closer to the Eurasian continent than others parts of Africa, and the North is physically cut off by the Sahara desert. Egypt is a stone’s throw away from the Middle East/ Levant where modern civilisation - such as the Sumerians - began. Forget the overwhelming historical and genetic evidence that ancient Egyptians looked much as they do today, just look at a map.
No man, you've got it all wrong they are all one people with no distinct cultures across the entire continent... all joking aside, that is the most frustrating thing about this whole back and forth is that people can't figure out that the culture can ebe and flow or stay the same for 10-2000 years just like the melanin in your skin through reproduction or mutation. Things change, and the fact people can't get that into their heads without it becoming a mud fight is ridiculous.
I don't understand why they are so desperate to make everyone from history black. It's absurd and pathetic.
It's typical narcissist behavior. Everything must revolve around them.
Because someone told them that humans started in Africa. That the Europeans came from Africa originally and migrated there long before any of these civilizations existed. Which is apparently true, but aoso apparently makes them believe that all Africans were black in the time of these civilizations. I may be wrong, but after looking into things that are happening in the States, it's mainly caused by people being upset because of things that happened during the early days of the Americas.
A lot of things have come to light lately that have African Americans panties in a bunch, as well as a lot of upset Caucasians. 1 is the revelation that the Europeans originated in Africa. Evidence of the migration turned up and was reported within the last 5 yrs. There are as many Caucasians that want to dispute that as African Americans that want to use it to their advantage. History with Kayliegh has some good, easy to understand videos about this. Second is some European nation paid a bunch of former slaves relatives for the atrocities of a different time, and the African Americans had a few wins in this stuff too, but were also informed that they were slaves before they came here so couldn't continue to blame the Americans as their sole oppressors. This is what I've been told and pieced together from several other TH-cam channels, from all sides. 3rd would be a certain streaming platforms recent adaptations of historical events and the inaccuracies that are products of politics rather than facts causing debate.
I'm sorry that is long. That was a great question and I felt the need to answer it. I feel I need to state that what I have said is a summarization of what I have learned from multiple TH-cam channels, on all sides of this argument. Some of it may be misinterpretation on my part, some of it may be wrong. But it's part of what I believe is the answer to your question. The rest is out there for you to find.
Ask yourself how many significant historical figures were black (prior to slavery or colonization) ... the answer will be very close to zero if not zero. That's why.
@@ario2264 No, it won't be zero or close to zero unless you're ignorant.
@@darrinrebagliati5365 what they seem to forget is that with their own logic that humans were originally black, also means that black people invented slavery. I've seen they usually have no comeback to it, as it erases their victimhood mentality.
I am stunned at the level of respect with which you treat your own critics, and the responses you make for the sake of pursuing truth and transparency, not for defending yourself against baseless personal attacks.
And on top of that, everything is done and said with great humility. Truly impressive. I wish that all internet "debaters" would follow your example, instead of creating tribal communities that orbit the "debaters", and not the facts.

@xevn7413 it kind of is though. Imhotep and his crew are trying to promote the "we wuz kangz" afrocentricity concept which completely undermines any academic understanding of history they claim to have.

Look for statues of Ramesses II, Khafre, Nefertiti, Horemheb, and other statues. Search for the mummy of Ramesses II, Yuya, Tuya, Teti, Tuthmosis IV, etc. Scientists examined Tutankhamun's DNA and found that 70% of men in Britain, 60% of men in France and 40% of Spanish men shared the same DNA, so Egypt was closer to Europe than you might think. . Some Africans and Berbers have immigrated to Egypt in the last 500 years, so some current Egyptians are less white than the ancient Egyptians. And yes, the Cretan civilization (Minoan civilization) used to color men red and women white, just as the Egyptians did, and this civilization had a great relationship with Egypt. Type (pictures of the Minoan civilization) in Google, which is the ancient civilization of Crete. Look for Fayoum Portraits, which are pictures of ancient Egyptians in central Egypt.

It's frustrating to the max that Metatron, like most of us, has to deal with idiots on a daily basis. Why does Metatron have to waste his time with this stupidity?
Because they only see in black and white (literally 😅). They only see him as a "right wing racist" and can't see that he is simply applying objective academic logic. In someways it sums up current thinking of society. Ironically the far left is equally disregarding scientific rigor as much as the far right.
It’s not a waste of time it’s pretty good info and arguments

Except it's not.
It's blatant historical revisionism with a lot of bad faith.
Are you not entertained? I am! It’s fun to watch Metatron deal with this stuff, just like it’s fun to watch him get frustrated with minor historical inaccuracies in movies. Now that I think of it, he’s fun to watch get frustrated, like Gene Wilder.

I started laughing at the what is Olive skin stuff. My thought was initially “well only a guy would think that” because anyone whose spent any time having to buy foundation knew exactly what you were referring too.

@@vonbennett6545Olive skin typically signifies a “green” hue or undertone to the skin. Italians are typically signified as having olive skin, and at the same time, Egyptians, who are much much darker, also have an olive undertone.

You're exactly right these kind of people, regardless of race, are the types to move goal posts in order to make you look inept.

I think he's trying to defend himself and engage in a controversial subject for views, and it's working on both counts.
I find it concenrning that they call everyone they disagree with "liar" and claim that Metatron is acting in bad faith by calling them Afrocentrists when they happily call him Eurocentrist.
Also, claiming that the entirety of Europe is blame for "stealing Egypt" is the most hyperbolic thing I've ever read.
And the olive skin part is just embarrassing. They go deep into semantics and false equivalences to prove their point, it's just embarrassing.

@@cal2127interestingly Egyptians are shown to be darker than Berbers so its not some wypipo propaganda.
As a Scandinavian (with a Bachelor degree in Scandinavian history from a prestigious danish University) i can confirm, my ancestors did indeed say "blue men"..
It appears both in Scandinavian "viking age" history regarding encounters with the moors in Spain and people along the north African coast and it appears in the old Norse linguistics, which any Norse linguistics expert will confirm.
I will even point you to a professor in Norse linguistics that can verify.
Blue in these cases were used to describe something dark, darker than the pale Scandinavians and north Europeans.
I believe that Jackson Crawford has an entire video about the use of (and meaning of) blue in old Norse linguistics.
He is a professor in Norse linguistics with a TH-cam channel.
I appreciate your contributions thanks
You're saying 'As's Scandinavian' as if that's more valid than existing historical sources. As long as you're not a legit time traveler, your confirmation doesn't hold validity over historical records.
@@lunafencoven Then let us try this approach.. I have a bachelor in Scandinavian history from a prestigious danish University.
I teach in excactly Scandinavian history and i have 1.. soon 2 books with my name on them regarding excactly Scandinavian history.

So.. where do you want to go from here?
I can tell you as a Scandinavian with a Bachelor in Scandinavian history, you will not find anyone able to tell me how my own ancestry and history is.
Further i did, you might have skipped it because thats how people like you often play, i did name a professor in Norse linguistics by name and i did let people know exactly where to find him and the evidence.
If you still doubt my words, its as easy as you going to his channel and finding the video regarding the use of "blue" and the "blue" men.. everyone can go have a look or even contact him.
I would expect any serious person had looked it up BEFORE trying to raise doubt about something like this.. but i guess facts and evidence are not practical when you want to raise doubt 😉
But do yourself a favor, go look it up.. its as easy as making yourself look silly in the comment section, just less people laughing at you afterwards.. win/win i would say 😉
And remember, unless you are a time traveler, you also have no valid argument that what im saying isnt real or the truth.. it goes both ways.
Your claim is however not worth as much as mine, since you havnt pointed in the direction of a real specialist in Norse linguistics that has another opinion.
And again, i told everyone excactly where to search out the validation of my words..
I wish you better luck next time 🙂

I am Egyptian, and what bothers me most isn’t when some Afrocentrists say that Egyptians were Black. What really troubles me is when people from southern and western African countries try so hard to prove that Egyptians were black, which they think means that they themselves are Egyptians too. This idea implies according to them that I -someone born and raised in Egypt with Egyptian grandparents- am not a “real” Egyptian just because I am not Black.
It disturbs me how some of these claims don’t even make sense. It’s like an Italian saying that the ancestors of people in Sweden were Romans, just because they are all Europeans. I don’t understand how proving that Egyptians were Black means that someone from Congo (just as an example) is Egyptian or that their ancestors helped build Egyptian civilization. It doesn’t prove that current Egyptians aren’t “real” Egyptians either.
They have nothing so they latch onto other civilizations. They were knapping flint while everyone else was circumventing the globe.
Speaking of the part with dutch farmers and blaing europeans for stuff that happened in the colonial age. Those kind of people forget that there were people in europe who were not only not conquerers, but were the ones being conquered and oppressed. Or were even slaves.
Im talking about slavs. Countries like Poland or the balkan slavs that got conquered by Austria-Hungary or the venetians or the ottomans. Hell even the english word slave, comes from the word slav because slavs were taken as slaves by the Muslims of Spain during the 9th century. When people think of slavs, they only think of big Russia.
Slavs are not English right? So why are we lumping all Europeans together? They were clearly referring to Western Europe....you know, the ones that actually participated in the slave trade. And they did that while knowing about the Slavs.....so yes, they were terrible people.
@@apitterson17 when someone lumps Europe or speaks about white europeans, i assume they are lumping all together. Because they broadly generalize it.

The fun thing about trying to figure out what Ancient Egyptians looked like... I always have to ask, "how ancient?" Egypt has been under the control of just about everyone in the region at one point or another.
That is correct but core of population is stable since neolithic times. Thats because Nile is one of most fertile rivers and like Mesopotamia and Chinese rivers when farming revolution begin it hold one of most massive population of farmers. And when you are barbaric Nubian, Berbers, Arab, Greek or Roman conquerer - you want not fancy pyramides, you want those farmers to keep growing food on this great Kemetic soil - so you can control it. And that's why population of Egypt like China was not really replaced despite being often ruled by foreigners.
@@szymonlechdzieciol except it has major ports and migration, outside of just being conqured. Also, there definitely have been drastic climate changes throughout Northern Africa to have changed much of the population.

What I do know is that the world today is only divided into races in our minds, and we all have a rich and complex mixed heritage, so there's no reason to think that would not be the case a few thousand years ago, which is only a small part of the full history of our species.

While mummification was never an affordable process and we effectively get a slice of the “upper crust” of society, there is no real reason I believe to doubt that these people were significantly different than the ones they ruled over, (except in cases where an invasion was recorded like with the Hyksos, the Nubians, the Greeks etc.).

I’ve been waiting for this one. It’s a huge shame time is wasted debating the race of Egypt when the rest of the continent has so many cultures and histories the average person knows nothing about. I’m happy we have channels like From Nothing that showcase bits of this history.
This is why I’m motivated to start making content shedding more light on the rest of the continent rather than drool over Egypt like these guys.
That being said I do know there were black people in Egypt just as there were Mediterranean, Levantine and native North African type people. It was a melting pot from the beginning, some people had characteristics seen in Sudan and the horn, others looked Levantine and Mediterranean. Why is it so hard to accept this fact?
Based. And it’s because people don’t like nuance, it takes more energy lol. A lot stems from countering white washed narratives tbf
cause when you look below the sahara, you soon look away in shame
Both sides are trying claim everything for themselves. Khemitologist Stephen Mehler said the early Egyptian tribes crossed the Sahara from west Africa before it was desert. Obviously Semitic tribes to the north invaded Egyptian because it is literally in middle of the Mediterranean. Semitic languages themselves have nothing in common with Indo European so they are probably African too. The only real historical origin of race that makes any sense is ancient astronaut theory.

I don't have to say "As a blah blah blah...", you've always been transparent and kept it all open for discussion. I look forward to your next video and thank you for your time.
I appreciate that
I had a room mate who called himself "Pharaoh". One of my best friends, actually. He once told me he traced his lineage back to Pharaoh Akhenaten. I only called him out on that because he previously told me he didnt know his fathers name. 😭😆
Facts
When in doubt, make it up!
Fake it til you make it.
From what I know about tracking genealogies, it's nearly impossible to track one's lineage before the 1300s because birth certificates weren't a thing back then (among other factors).
@@Pirate_Knight27 Birth certificates weren't really "a thing" up until the last century. My grandparents (all of them, born in Europe and the U.S.) didn't get a birth certificate until everyone "had to" have one for travel/immigration. By that time they were adults. This was only 70 years ago. Usually, you trace your ancestors from town/village/city records. Not birth certificates.
These kind of videos are so satisfying to watch.. Point by point pwnage
Olive refers more to the undertones. It doesn't mean dark or light, it has a wide range in that regard. I have olive skin and I'm pretty light but it has an obvious greenish/yellowish undertone because I'm Mediterranean.
Me too. People don't realize that it is a tone. They think olive is the same as tanned.
Well we know olive skin didn’t create this culture or civilization.
Same here. I can also tan well, but the under tone is slightly green. Slavic/Norse mix by the way. I think it is beautiful that we have so many diverse looking people in the world. Some people just like to argue to hear their chin wag.
@@Madgardian You mean like the lying Eurocentrics who are lying about the origins of this clearly African civilization?
It’s not necessarily that, the idea of “olive undertone” it’s more modern. An olive complexion would be someone like Orlando Bloom, Matteo Bocelli or even George Clooney
"In my view, it may be best to refrain from engaging with them. Their manner of speaking suggests they may be around 15 years old. When encountering someone who uses phrases like 'he's lying for the sake of argument,' it lacks a sense of maturity. If I were in your position, I would consider refraining from responding altogether."
It’s part pf the TH-cam creator culture to interact with other creators in video form. I get what you’re saying, and irl I would agree, but this is what TH-cam culture is made of. It’s a good thing, for everyone.
Look, our budget Ironman of history is going after historic misinformation just like youtubes budget Thor of science is going after science misinformation. We need our heroes!
@@creatrixZBD Engaging in serious debate is indeed valuable. However, when faced with individuals who resort to disrespectful tactics and attempts to diminish someone's work without providing valid arguments, it's important to maintain a standard of professionalism. Engaging with individuals who lack respect and maturity only serves to lower the discourse and dignify their disrespectful behavior. It's essential to uphold integrity and avoid being drawn into exchanges that lack constructive dialogue.
You are being far more generous to these people than they deserve. They just make things up, use "scholarship" that has no real academic rigor, grossly misrepresent what you said, or just ourtight lie. They are ridiculous.
So basically you didn’t watch their videos show casing evidence to what they are saying? Because the evidence they present aligns way more than what he is saying.
@@The_Truth- nope. That's your bias talking
@@ianmacdiarmid1249 I don’t have biases, you refuse to face the truth. All the evidence ties back to the roots which is indigenous Africans. Since you claim I’m bias, then tell me why did the first Pharoah come from the interior of Africa?
@The_Truth- he didn't. DNA analysis of mummies shows Egyptians had less sub Saharan DNA than modern Egyptians. There was one dynasty of Pharoahs from Nubia, the 25th. Rest were Egyptian until the Ptolemeic, who were Macedonian. You do have a bias. It's obvious. Everyone has a bias. It's whether you're aware and take steps to counter it. But I guess we waz kangz is good enough for you.
@@ianmacdiarmid1249 This is why it’s important for you to put the phone down and read a book. The 25th dynasty is not the only dynasty that had a black African Pharoah. The first Pharoah is a black African too. He came from the interior of Africa, the culture is African that was started in the interior of Africa. They have Narmer’s bust, he was clearly an indigenous African who were Nilotic people. He came from upper Egypt. Proven me wrong. The Nile runs north, or south. The south conquered the north, the clothing is African, the hairstyles is African, they drew themselves on walls so thy dark brown skin and distinct African hairstyles, clothing, artifacts, jewelry, cultural practices. Mummification is an African practice. Didn’t know that? Berbers, Levantines, Coptics, Mediterraneans, Romans, Greeks do not originate in Africa. They came much later.
I follow all of these channels and I hope the debate remains healthy. It would be good to hear your take on the subject of hair as it relates to phenotype as I think there is definitely something to be said about how the braiding practices and hairstyles of ancient Egypt depicted in the wall paintings are still practiced by many black African tribes today. It still aligns with your multiethnic argument but I found it quite an interesting take from these creators that is never spoken about in the mainstream discussions of ancient Egypt and phenotype. Black African people have a unique hair type that is common in many cases only to them. Appreciate your views on this
Why do you think they don’t talk about it? Because it hits to close to the truth, so they have to sway this into a false narrative of excuse. This was one of the thing Cheik Diop brought to the table at the 1974 Cairo symposium and embarrassed a whole team of so called Egyptologists.
You know that bi-racial people also have these features. So, you don't need to be purely African to have them.
Wigs were commonly worn in ancient Egypt by both men and women, I believe that's generally accepted fact. Not sure how much this was class dependent.
@@johng4093 I don’t know who told you that, but wigs were not as common as you think.
@@johng4093 I don’t know who told you that but wigs were not as common as you think. The original Egyptians didn’t need wigs.

Egypt is located in northeastern Africa. A large portion of it is located in Asia. Egypt is an African-Asian country. It is a country in the Middle East. Most of its people live in northern Egypt, specifically in the Delta. All this will tell you that we were and still are closer to the Mediterranean and the Levant. Well, the Egyptians and Greeks were similar to each other. Look for the statue of the seated scribe and the statue of Rahotep and his wife, both made before the pyramids were built. Look for statues of Ramesses II, Khafre, Nefertiti, Horemheb, and other statues. Search for the mummy of Ramesses II, Yuya, Tuya, Teti, Tuthmosis IV, etc. Scientists examined Tutankhamun's DNA and found that 70% of men in Britain, 60% of men in France and 40% of Spanish men shared the same DNA, so Egypt was closer to Europe than you might think. . Some Africans and Berbers have immigrated to Egypt in the last 500 years, so some current Egyptians are less white than the ancient Egyptians. And yes, the Cretan civilization (Minoan civilization) used to color men red and women white, just as the Egyptians did, and this civilization had a great relationship with Egypt. Type (pictures of the Minoan civilization) in Google, which is the ancient civilization of Crete. Look for Fayoum Portraits, which are pictures of ancient Egyptians in central Egypt..
My DNA is 95% North African and i am white as milk. Except in the summer then i get a light brown skin depends on exposure of the sun.
Same in Norway. The Berbers/Barbarian slavetraders took white female slave (male white slaves were immasculated in the physical meaning) (wiping out whole coastal communities as far north as Iceland). Their descendants we're light in part to the enslaved concubines.
white as milk? might want to see a doctor
hell look at berbers
@@cal2127 Berbers DID take a lot of white slaves of both genders (except only one gender was allowed to procreate) , though they probably started out as RH- light people in any case.
@alexandergrimsmo Also don't forget about the Vandal conquest of North Africa
As an Egyptian I thank you for telling truth mate,, love you from Alexandria :D
As a nilote I totally disagree
no one cares@@Themeoarts

Thanks for doing these.
Another delusional Eurocentric who’s scientifically illiterate.
Pan africanists and black nationalists fail to mention that africa is by no means a monolith, it is an entire continent full of different cultures and civilizations. Most american blacks are descended from cultures that had very little, if any, contact with egypt.
Its like if some random guy from a swedish immigrant family in thr US claimed to be descended from roman nobility because at one point his ancestors lived in Europe.
And thats another funny thing about them, every single one of these people like to larp as egyptian royalty, when its far more likely that, if any of their ancestors even lived near Egypt, its far more likely they'd have been nile farmer #173728 who died after farting near a crocodile.
Plus, why not just study sub saharan african culture, which is highly underrated and very often misrepresented? Most of them are throwing their actual ancestry in the garbage bin to larp as egyptians.
The confusion came from comparison to Europeans and panEuropean ideas but Europe is much smaller continent and since IE invasion it was sort of one cultural zone. Sort of.
Africa is way bigger and divided.
So true
Is Sudan Sub Saharan
Aye, most brought to North America came from the Niger river region. Huge trade in slaves after the Songhai Empire was smashed by the Moroccans and all the rump states fought each other, trading slaves to the Europeans for muskets for their wars.
@@szymonlechdzieciol Just the IE invasion? Neolithic Europe was already quite homogenic with most of the population being in big part of Middle eastern/Anatolian origin. Actually most modern Europeans are a mixture of 3 ancient ancestries, albeit in varying proportions. The diversity of Africa is incomparably greater.
Bruh during their complaining & whining, they basically said that "he uses big words too much." 😂😂😂😂 Are they serious?! ... and we are supposed to take them more seriously than metatron??? 😂😂😂 foh
I'm not too sure why people feel threatened by this. If anything it's a great way to learn more. Anti intellectualism i suppose. My guess would be they assume he's trying to intimidate them by using words they ignore and shut the debate while posing as an authority.
Sounds just like projection of inner insecurities
Dr. Rebecca futco Kennedy is a good source of why metetron is racist.

But Africans had no written language before slavery and that truth alone is hard to ignore when these negros claim pharaoh. In negros defense the Bible clearly states Egyptus whose race is unknown married one of Hams daughters (black women) so the first princes of Egypt came out a black womb
I learned the term "olive-skinned" from my olive-skinned mother. My brother was even more so.
Black olives are not naturally black, but made so during the canning process, as with several other color types.
Ripe olives assume a very dark purple colour which to the eye absolutely makes them appear black.
Are canned olives not produced with the ripened fruit?
Olive skinned=Eva Mendes 🤗🤗
@@jonnywaldis8275 Black olives are picked when brown to dark brown. The deep black color of olives is set durring the curring process. Some may be darker on the vine, but most obtain their signature black color durring curring.
@thetruth45678 I can only assume that we must be talking about different kinds of olives then. I have grown, harvested and cured them with different methods for many years and they blackened just fine on the vine or maintained a relatively light colour when cured early. To me a brown olive is also rotten, which is my primary reason to believe we may be talking about different kinds.
@@jonnywaldis8275 Just going by what info there is online. I have never grown them. They do darken when cured, correct?
Well done, Metatron! You dismantled their criticism while maintaining composure, high intelligence and wisdom. I am sorry to hear they conducted themselves in such a manner. At any rate, keep up the great work
