Why are the African races incapable of building civilizations?

[LostInParadise]

I think the african race represents the savage and natural state of the human being.

I don't really know, but maybe it's because they don't have the sophisticated education systems to create the bright minds who will construct these civilizations, just a hunch. Or maybe they don't have much assistance from more advanced civilizations from the outside. Japan for example is a technologically advanced nation because of international technology transfer from countries such as Great Britain.

Oh, the Amarna mummy thing that every niggercentrist tries to use as proof of a black Egypt. Watch this video and explain why all the Amarna mummies have Caucasoid features.




Greeks made up an elite in Egypt, and only lived as a large population in some cities like Alexandria. And around 4,000 Arabs invaded Egypt, a country with a estimated population of around 10,000,000 at the time. It's ridiculous to think they made a significant impact. No recorded migrations from sub-sahara? Wrong. Egyptians were importing slaves from Sub-sahara from medieval times up until the early 20th century.Even Mansa Musa sold slaves in Egypt to pay for his trip, because he wasted so much of his money which is typical for rich blacks even today.

Here's a study which suggests Egyptians are actually blacker today then in ancient times.

Mitochondrial DNA Research in the Dakhleh Oasis, Egypt
Alison M. Graver, Ryan L. Parr, Sandra Walters, Renée C. Praymak, Jennifer M. Maki and J.El Molto

Molecular genetic research is being conducted as part of the Dakhleh Oasis Project (DOP), an international and multi-disciplinary research initiative in the western desert of Egypt. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is being analyzed from both ancient human skeletal remains associated with the Roman period town of Kellis (100 to 450 AD) and contemporary inhabitants of the Dakhleh Oasis. The primary objectives of this research are to derive paleogenetic information about the inhabitants of ancient Kellis, and to develop a picture of change over time within this desert oasis. Preliminary mtDNA restriction site data and control region sequence variability suggest significant genetic differences exist between the ancient and modern oasis populations

To obtain the frequencies of these mtDNA types, amplification of the HVRI region and three RFLP markers was conducted. The authors succeeded in analysing RFLP markers in 34 samples and HVRI sequences in 18 of the samples. Both populations, ancient and contemporary, fit the north-south clinal distribution of “southern” and “northern” mtDNA types (Graver et al. 2001). However, significant differences were found between these populations. Based on an increased frequency of HpaI 3592 (+) haplotypes in the contemporary Dakhlehian population, the authors suggested that, since Roman times, gene flow from the Sub-Saharan region has affected gene frequencies of individuals from the oasis.



Don't compare Ghana to Venice. Ghana was only a trading kingdom, it has no significant accomplishments in science/technology, philosophy, literature, music, or art.



Nope, Mozabites don't represent all Berbers.



I think you mean Hyskos, and they were still only an elite basically. Sea Peoples mostly got driven away from Egypt by Ramses III.



It has close to zero importance in history, and what it does have is due to Berbers, and Arabs.



I find it funny how little kingdoms like Benin are called ''Empires''.





Just look at some of their art and architecture for yourself. This is not impressive at all compared to the Art of Europe, India, and East Asia at the same time for example. It's prehistoric compared to that, but it's basically the best you're gonna find when it comes to Sub-Saharan Africa.

That stuff is actually pretty impressive, at least more so than the typical white nationalist borreby would give Africans credit for. They like to claim that Africans had nothing but mud huts and sticks, but those pictures show some cool buildings and art that obviously took a lot of skill to create.

Regarding the Egyptians, I think it's pretty well established that they were Caucasoid. Nobody can reasonably claim that they were Negroid. Even the Nubians were not fully Negroid; they were and are of an Aethiopid type.

You don't have to take my word for it. We have the ability to look at pictures of Egyptian mummies ourselves. I think they speak for themselves.









They have similar features to modern Middle Eastern Caucasoid people.

Africans did had civilisation and do have, its just not well known. They are not on par with the first world though

[Dylan]

Nubia contradicts it. Also, who knows how advanced Europe would be if it weren't for the influence of the Roman Empire. Remember, it was not too long ago that most Europeans lived quite primitively. And 1000 or 2000 years is nothing but a blip in the entire existence of humanity.

Also part of this results from the geography of much of Africa. While Europe was once filled with Forests and does have huge mountain ranges etc. it was and still is much easier for various peoples to connect with one another.

Africa is filled with impenetrable jungles and huge deserts. Apart from the Nile there aren't many good rivers for agriculture or transportation etc. It was and still is very difficult for peoples to connect and for ideas to be shared etc.

Ignore the IQ statistics. The source of where and how these statistics were compiled is not reliable. Furthermore there are countless reasons why IQ tests should not be seen as measurements of biological or innate intelligence, but instead as a result of various privileges etc.

It's about the best you'll find from Sub-Saharan Africa though, from a southern saharan kingdom influenced by Arab civilization. and it's pretty primitive compared to the art/architecture being made in Europe, Near East, India, and Eastern Asia at the time.

most civilisations have sources in forerunners, even rome. you seem really to hate blacks

And Nubians never did anything remarkable. They took the Egyptian model of civilization and moved it south, but then never did anything to surpass it in any way. They have pretty much no important contributions to civilization, and they weren't even pure negroids.

you really hate blacks, if you need to downtalk them

And Negroid cultures like Mali have their sources in Caucasoid Civilizations. Mali can't be compared to Rome though. A world without ancient Rome would be very different from our current world, whereas a world without the Mali kingdom would be basically the same.
