This book here is pivotal to uncovering the truth about history, and in particularly African history that had been denied to black Africans since the colonization of the World and it's history by Europeans with a White supremacist mind set. The white washing of the premiere civilization of antiquity that was situated in Africa, which was ancient Kemet is clearly of the most importance to the white supremacist who were writing the history books.
This is extremely important to note when we discuss the racial "controversy" in ancient Kemet. I notice that some people try to accuse the victims of lies and theft (the black Africans) of doing the same the perpetrators of those conspiratorial lies, and that is ludicrous. What the above book clearly points out is that Europeans in the name of white supremacy through their "authentic sciences" hid (and still do) and suppressed much information about the African origins of ancient Kemet. At this point the black African origins of ancient Kemet are indisputable, and not my opinion. Notice also that when the white supremacist had to acknowlege the ancient Kemetyu as "black" they essentially deAfricanized entire branches of indigenous Africans (Cu****ic speakers and Nilotic Africans) who distinct from the Niger-Congo speaking populations (who comprised the singular largest segment of the Kemetic population). This false Hamitic Hypothesis lead racial assignment of the ancient Kemetyu is why to this day you have many white supremacist who obsess over trying to separate certain East Africans from the rest of black African biologically. These same white supremacist do not even know that prime affinity was with the Niger-Congo speaking populations anyway, which is what makes it amusing to the informed. People who insist that it was something other than black African are severely misinformed or for whatever reason willfully in lying.

Archaeological evidence also strongly supports an African origin. A widespread northeastern African cultural assemblage, including distinctive multiple barbed harpoons and pottery decorated with dotted wavy line patterns, appears during the early Neolithic (also known as the Aqualithic, a reference to the mild climate of the Sahara at this time).
Saharan and Sudanese rock art from this time resembles early Egyptian iconography. Strong connections between Nubian (Sudanese) and Egyptian material culture continue in later Neolithic Badarian culture of Upper Egypt. Similarities include black-topped wares, vessels with characteristic ripple-burnished surfaces, a special tulip-shaped vessel with incised and white-filled decoration, palettes, and harpoons...
Other ancient Egyptian practices show strong similarities to modern African cultures including divine kingship, the use of headrests, body art, circumcision, and male coming-of-age rituals, all suggesting an African substratum or foundation for Egyptian civilization.."

There is now a sufficient body of evidence from modern studies of skeletal remains to indicate that the ancient Egyptians, especially southern Egyptians, exhibited physical characteristics that are within the range of variation for ancient and modern indigenous peoples of the Sahara and tropical Africa.. In general, the inhabitants of Upper Egypt and Nubia had the greatest biological affinity to people of the Sahara and more southerly areas.....must be placed in the context of hypotheses informed by archaeological, linguistic, geographic and other data. In such contexts,
the physical anthropological evidence indicates that early Nile Valley populations can be identified as part of an African lineage, but exhibiting local variation. This variation represents the short and long term effects of evolutionary forces, such as gene flow, genetic drift, and natural selection, influenced by culture and geography." ("Nancy C. Lovell, " Egyptians, physical anthropology of," in Encyclopedia of the Archaeology of Ancient Egypt, ed. Kathryn A. Bard and Steven Blake Shubert, ( London and New York: Routledge, 1999). pp 328-332)
When it comes to African civilizations, the book from C.A. Diop cited above proves quite clearly that the vast majority of African groups originated or once resided along the Nile River Valley along in the continuous civilizations that stretched along them. What he points out is what the Western white supremacist is completely opposed to. The civilization that many have argued is the source of civilization throughout the ancient World which was Nubia-Kemet was destroyed by invading non black people. It was essentially a race war, and the race war happened throughout the entire World including Asia (Mesopotamia, Indus Valley and even China). The whites at the time did not have a homeland, besides the Caucus and in the book this is laid out when Diop details the situation with the Sea Peoples going on a rampage destroying every civilization along the Eastern Mediterranean, and being defeated when they came to Kemet's doors under Ramses III leadership. We all know that eventually under various names and usupred identities that those Indo Europeans or those Semitic raced individuals eventually got into Kemet following the Assyrian and Persian invasions. We must be clear that these people were banned from being taught the ancient mystery systems of ancient Kemet until the Greeks took hold during the Late Period. Whites who had a uniform phenotype during early antiquity were banned from ancient Kemet, and those who were spotted were burned to death instantly, as they were equated as "Devils" or the People of Set.
"Montague Summers, in his translation of the Malleus Maleficarum,[72] notes that red hair and green eyes were thought to be the sign of a witch, a werewolf or a vampire during the Middle Ages;
Those whose hair is red, of a certain peculiar shade, are unmistakably vampires. It is significant that in ancient Egypt, as Manetho tells us, human sacrifices were offered at the grave of Osiris, and the victims were red-haired men who were burned, their ashes being scattered far and wide by winnowing-fans. It is held by some authorities that this was done to fertilize the fields and produce a bounteous harvest, red-hair symbolizing the golden wealth of the corn. But these men were called Typhonians, and were representatives not of Osiris but of his evil rival Typhon, whose hair was red."
That's why it's absurd to insist that people like 90 year old Ramses II had red hair rather than Africans simply using traditional henna dye. It was completely against Kemetic higher chakra/Horus belief system to allow those people of Set to even be included in the civilization.
Eventually however the people of Set...eventually got into the African civilization, and destroyed it. When they destroyed it the original people of the civilization simply migrated into the original home of civilization slightly to the south in Nubia/Meroe, and then from their they migrated into their contemporary locations throughout "Sub Saharan Africa" where they continued to build new civilizations for their own respective tribes rather than as a power African collective that created and dominated the World like in Nubia and Kemet.
The quote below comes from the book cited above regarding the racial component of ancient Kemet, and here you can see that a century prior to Afrocentric C.A. Diop this fact of diffusion from Kemet was undeniable.

Superstitions, Customs, and Arts, Common to the Ancient Egyptians, Abyssinians, and Ashantees, in

Palm Oil Offerings
Palm Oil/Epó Epo is Palm oil. It is derived from the fruit of the oil palms, primarily the African oil palm. Palm oil is not the same thing as palm kernal oil. Palm kernal oil is derived from the kernal of the same fruit and it is not the same color as palm oil because it does not have a high beat-carotene content like palm oil.
Palm oil is commonly used for spiritual purposes. To understand the nature of palm oil, one can simply observe its qualities. For instance, if one were to touch the surface of palm oil they could feel that it has a very smooth texture. This smooth texture is one of the key uses for palm oil in spiritual work. When offered to an energy or orisha that one is working with it is offered to assist with smoothing the road ahead, or smoothing transitions so that the road ahead is void of obstacles or unforeseen challenges that could arise.
Palm oil also had a red color which represents virility and swift action. Offering palm oil will assist with making one’s affirmed prayers to manifest much sooner than later. Palm oil is a common staple in a spirit worker’s medicine bag and is often used as offerings to most Lwa like Ogu/Ogou orisha including Esu and Ogun however it is not recommended to offer palm oil to Obatala.
This is
OUR HERITAGE!
This is our culture and our legacy, and it's quite wicked for people to attempt to rob my people of this. The white supremacist fell flat on their behinds when they tried to promote an Aryan ancient Kemet, so now they shield their anti racism when it comes to this topic by hiding behind modern Egyptians. They try against alllllll evidence to hoist them up as the true heirs of the ancient Kemetic civilization, when they know that they are nothing more than invaders (particularly in the North). When the Arabs (whom most modern Egyptians identify as) came into Egypt a millenium after the collaspe of the dynasties, they literally peeled the lime stone casing off of the great pyramid to construct a mosque. These invaders did not even know that beneath that they stood rest an ancient civilization until the Europeans came in the late 1700's to dig. It's absurd to claim that the modern people who inhabit the land of Egypt (or north Africa for that mention) are the original peoples of the lands or even have ties to the ancient civilization.
