There exists a site in southern Egypt that is the oldest astronomical site in the world. This site, called Nabta, was created some 6500 years ago by a Neolithic people who were concerned with the progress of the year. The circle of standing stones allowed the people to determine when the solstices occurred as well as rainy seasons. This sub-Saharan culture is likely to be the predecessor of the Egyptians. The site was excavated by Fred Wendorf and John (Kim) Malville.
HERES MY FAV. PARAGRAPH!!
Human remains were also found at Nabta, but only the jawbone was left available to Wendorf to examine, the rest being confiscated by the Egyptian museum in Cairo. The study of this jawbone led Wendorf to an interesting conclusion: the Nabtians were of sub-Saharan descent, not of middle eastern. He deduced this based on the size and structure of the teeth and jaw compared to different ethnic groups. The conclusion undercuts the mainstream theory that Egyptian society was founded by Mesopotamians and Syrians. The idea that the Egyptian society was truly of African descent is revolutionary indeed. Yet it is backed with good evidence from the Nabta site, such as the jawbone and knowledge of the cycle of aridity in the region.

A major change occurred in the character of the Neolithic society at Nabta occurred around 7500 years ago, following a major drought which drove the previous groups from the desert. The groups who returned to the desert now clearly had a complex social system that expressed a degree of organization and control not previously seen in Egypt. They sacrificed young cows and buried them in clay-lined and roofed chambers covered by rough stone tumuli, they erected alignments of large, unshaped stones, they built Egypt's earliest astronomical measuring device (a "calendar circle" which appears to have been used to mark the summer solstice), and they constructed more than 30 complex structures having both surface and subterranean features. A shaped stone from one of these complexes may be the oldest known sculpture in Egypt.
These structures are important because they indicate the way the people were able to organize work, celebrate their culture, and perhaps express their religious beliefs, and furthermore, they tell us that the Saharan people may have been more highly organized than their contemporaries in the Nile Valley.
Lol..Give it up dude..The More they Dig to Find the Origins of the Egyptians the MORE AFRICAN and BLACK SUB SAHRAN Egypt Gets!!!!
And the fact that they are putting it into ACADAMIC Egypt History books..is changing Egypt into an Indiginous Nation Started by Black Africans(Upper Egypt) whom are still in Upper Egypt by the way
Upper Egyptians

The modern consensus of opinion seems to be that Ancient Egyptians were racially mixed, with possibly an indigenous Egyptian population being infiltrated at some stage in the pre-dynastic period by a different racial type from Syrio-Palestine. Certainly most Egyptians in ancient Egyptian art do not have the appearance of sub-Saharan Africans.

The Ancient Egyptians saw themselves as distinctly different from both the pale-skinned Asians and the darker Nubians (sub-Saharan Africans). Classical writers who discussed Egyptians classified them as darker than Moors (Moroccans) but lighter than Nubians. But it seems that people of various racial types could be considered Egyptian.

The British Museum Dictionary of Ancient Egypt says:

'civilizations cannot necessarily be defined in purely racial terms. While the population at large may consist predominantly of on eor another racil group, it's 'culture' and the archaeological record of its characteristics are often the product of the interaction of many racial groups'

The American anthropologist C. Loring Brace concludes that:

'attempts to force the Egyptians into either a "black" or "white" category have no biological justification.....The old-fashioned chimerical concept of "race" is hopelessly inadequate to deal with the human biological reality of Egypt, ancient or modern.'
