I was around when that exhibition was touring.
The nation went nuts for Tut.
I still have the souvenir a family member who saw it brought back for me.
The 70s didn’t totally suck...

I don’t know about the 1% figure, but King Tut lived over 3000 years ago and that’s a lot of generations. Ancient Egyptians had more interactions with people in the Levant. Modern Egyptians have more descent from Sub-Saharan Africa. Massacres aren’t necessary to explain the change. The history of the Coptic Christians also suggests that the change wasn’t brought about by exterminating the earlier inhabitants.

Thanks! I anticipate a slow GGG week, mainly because everything about me this week seems a little slow, so, despite this being a duplicate of sorts, *ping*!
Plus, this will be of great interest because in modern times he's become the best known pharaoh, annnnd, a number of FReepers are from Arizona. It's a thinker.

I have been trying to convince Mrs Woodbutcher for two years now about moving/retiring to Italy. Even places in Tuscany are becoming affordable. We have been watching Italy as well and even practicing Italian. It is a bargain there at the moment. Right now, we live in a very expensive part of the country with a bunch of lefties and “new arrivals” who are destroying the state.
I was in the lumber industry for almost ten years before I was hired by a fire department and started living the easy life of a government employee.

The history of the Coptic Christians also suggests that the change wasn't brought about by exterminating the earlier inhabitants. Typically, when a group has almost no genetic relationship to the previous group that occupied the area... something very unpleasant took place at some point, whether or not the events made it into the history books.
I know that Coptic Christians are Egypt's largest minority, and I know that they claim a close relationship to ancient Egyptians. But I have no idea if there has been any genetic testing to confirm this. The article that we are discussing makes no mention of this which would be surprising if the data existed.

The Copts in Egypt are probably the closest to ancient Egyptians, while the rest are Arabs whose ancestors arrived in Egypt with the Arab/Muslim conquest in 641 A.D.

We have been following a few YouTubers that promote villas in Italy. Some are actual licensed real estate agents that moved there from Great Britain.
Here is one:
https://ahomeinitaly.com/
He sells houses in Abruzzo. He is from the UK. A lot of them need work and are in all these small villages.
There is another guy who calls his channel One take Italian Property Tours. He is from UK too.
He tends to promote much more expensive properties in Tuscany , Umbria and occasionally up north. Some of them are incredibly beautiful. Places that at one point cost well over 1MM EU.
There is another women who does videos of houses in Molise and Piedmont. She is from South America originally. I don’t recall her channel name.
Just recently I started getting videos on my feed from Spain. Houses/villas out in the central dry area. It looks like the places they probably filmed the Spaghetti Westerns.
Similar looking landscape to the SW US. Not quite as arid though.
Beautiful brand new appearing up to date villas with pools for $249K-$289K

The latset Cleopatra movie on Netflick has Cleopatra as a black woman.
Everyone in the world knows that Cleopatra was Greek descended.
