THE DISAPPEARANCE OF THE WHITE EGYPTIANS
Ever since the time of the Hyksos invasion and the fall of the Second Kingdom, the demographic shift amongst the Egyptian population had been against the original Whites. Slowly at first, but then speeding up, Nonwhites or mixed racial types began to make up more and more of that country's population - drawn in as slaves, laborers, immigrants or invaders.
These other racial types were of two sorts: Semites (whom the Egyptians called "Sand Dwellers") and Blacks, from region of Nubia in the far south (present day Sudan).
A review of Egypt's relations with Nubia is therefore crucial to understanding what happened to the White Egyptians, and why they vanished.
RACE WAR WITH NUBIA
Clashes between the Egyptians and the Black Nubians had long been a feature of Egyptian history, with the first campaigns against the Nubians being launched by Old Kingdom pharaohs around 2900 BC. In 2570 BC, Pharaoh Sneferu launched a concerted attack upon Nubia. Egyptian records show that 70,000 prisoners were taken, a figure which must have been a staggering amount at the time. In 1296 BC Egypt conquered Nubia and built a series of massive forts to protect Egypt's southern borders against the Nubians, with the most famous of these being the fort at Buhen, which had walls which were 111 meters high and 4.5 meters thick.
Along the banks of the southern Nile huge stones were erected upon which, in hieroglyphics still visible today, the passage of Blacks past those points was forbidden - the first public "Whites Only" signs in history.
At the time of the Hyksos invasion of Egypt, many local Nubian kings allied themselves with the Hyksos and inflicted defeats upon the weakened Egyptians, including the destruction of the southern forts. When the Hyksos were finally driven out, the White Egyptians exacted a terrible revenge upon the Blacks, launching many campaigns of conquest and suppression against them, all the while bringing back thousands into Egypt as slaves - a racial time bomb which was eventually to destroy Egyptian civilization.
EGYPTIAN WRITINGS ABOUT BLACKS
The White Egyptians left many written references to the Black population in Nubia and in their own midst. In fact, at one point, their writings record a law that forbade Blacks from entering their country at all.
An overview of these written inscriptions is highly worthwhile and devastates claims by pro-Black historians, who, in an attempt to distort the historical record, claim that the ancient Egyptian civilization was Black in racial origin.
The most complete record and translation of these scripts was undertaken by professor James Henry Breasted, Professor of Egyptology and Oriental History in the University of Chicago in his work "History of Egypt, from the Earliest Times to the Persian Conquest", Second Edition, 1909 - for anyone interested in a detailed overview, based on original Egyptian sources, this book is well worth reading.
All the writings quoted below have been extracted from Breasted's work and are based on original Egyptian records.
EGYPTIAN RACIAL WRITINGS : THE SITH DYNASTY
The Inscription of Uni, Count and Governor of the South reads as follows: (Uni was an official of the Old Kingdom.)
"His majesty made war on the Asiatic Sand-Dwellers and his majesty made an army of many ten thousands: in the entire South . . . . among the Irthet Blacks, the Mazoi Blacks, the Yam Blacks, among the Wawat Blacks, among the Kau Blacks, and in the land of Temeh."
This is an example of an Old Kingdom (2980-2475 BC) Pharaoh using thousands of Blacks as mercenaries: the army was sent into southern Palestine and "returned in safety after it had hacked up the land of the Sand-Dwellers."
"His majesty sent me to dig five canals in the South, and to make three cargo-boats and four row boats of Acacia wood of Wawat. Then the Black chiefs of Irthet, Waway, Yam and Mazoi drew timber therefore, and I did the whole in only one year. The Pharaoh came to inspect this work and at the coming of the king himself, standing behind the hill country, while the chiefs of Mazoi, Irthet and Wawat, did obeisance and gave great praise."
This writing shows very clearly the use of Blacks as labor - and illustrates how Blacks were slowly but surely drawn into Egyptians society.
EGYPTIAN WRITINGS: THE TWELFTH DYNASTY
A sandstone stela found in the sanctuary of Wadi Halfa contains an account of the Nubian expedition of Pharaoh Sesostris I, which carried this king's wars to their southernmost limits. At the top of this stela there is a relief showing Sesostris I standing facing the Lord of Thebes, who says:
"I have brought for thee all countries which are in Nubia, beneath thy feet."
The god then gives to the king a line of bound captives, symbolizing Nubian towns.
The inscription of Prince Amenim, which is carved into the stone in the doorway of his cliff-tomb in Benihasin, describes the Black lands as "vile." It reads as follows ("Kush" was one of the Black lands) :
"I passed Kush sailing southward, ... then his majesty returned in safety having overthrown his enemies in Kush the vile."
The inscription on the stela of Sahathor, an "Assistant Treasurer" is now to be found in the British Museum., reads as follows:
"I reached Nubia of the Blacks, ... I forced the Nubian chiefs to wash gold."
"TO PREVENT THAT ANY BLACK SHOULD CROSS..."
The final conquest of Nubia was attained by Sesostris III in 1840 BC. This king conducted four campaigns against the Blacks and erected several forts at strategic points, making Nubia a permanent colony of Egypt.
The first Semneh stela inscription recounting the subjugation of Nubia by Sesostris III reads as follows:
"Southern boundary, made in the year 8, under the majesty of the king of Upper and Lower Egypt, Sesostris III, ... in order to prevent that any Black should cross it, by water or by land, with a ship, or any herds of the Blacks; except a Black who shall come to do trading in Iken, or with a commission. Every good thing shall be done with them but without allowing a ship of the Blacks to pass by Heh, going down stream, forever."
EGYPTIAN RACIAL WRITINGS: THE EIGHTEENTH DYNASTY (1580-1350 BC)
The inscription of Ahmose reads:
"Now after his majesty had slain the Asiatics, he ascended the river...to destroy the Nubian Troglodytes; his majesty made a great slaughter among them."
The Tombos Stela of Thutmose I reads:
"He hath overthrown the chief of the Nubians; the Black is helpless, defenseless, in his grasp. He hath united the boundaries of his two sides, there is not a remnant among the curly-haired, who came to attack; there is not a single survivor among them...They fall by the sword...the fragments cut from them are too much for the birds."
In the annals of the great warrior king, Thutmose III, at the sixth Karnak pylon, there is a list which contains no less than 115 of the names of the towns and districts of the conquered Nubian regions.
Another pylon at Karnak contains possibly four hundred towns, districts, and countries conquered in Nubia. Inscribed on a black granite tablet Karnak is the famous "Hymn of Victory" which reads as follows:
"I have bound together the Nubian Troglodytes by the tens of thousands. The northerners by hundreds of thousands as prisoners."
Another remarkable inscription is to be found on the Semmeh Stela of Amenhotep III, now to be found in the British Museum in London. It reads as follows:
"List of the captivity which his majesty took in the land of Ibbet the wretched."
List of Prisoners and Killed
Living Blacks 150 heads
Archers 110 heads
Female Blacks 250 heads
Servants of the Blacks 55 heads
Their children 175 heads
Total 740 heads
Hands thereof 312
United with the living heads 1,052 "
