What Hieroglyphics Say About the Women of Ancient Egypt
The priests of Amun held an elevated position in ancient Egypt. But modern archaeologists were stunned to discover that a group of women were even more important – they were dubbed ‘The Wives of Amun.’

She did not make the coffee for the guys or run office errands . 👩
The thing about ancient civilization is that you know they are black when the women held authority or if they were seen as equals. I mean look at European culture. They were largely against women ruling and literally made them second class citizens
White Egyptians that’s crazy but go on 😭
She’s a Somali queen and she’s from The Land of Punt and it’s still exists now in Somalia its called Puntland and her name is a Somali name Amuun in Somalia it’s still named by the girls
As they can clearly see on the hyrogliphyics those women were painted black by the Egyptians themselves but these people couldn’t stand the reality
They know good and darn well those people didn't look like that…
A DNA test of a group of mummies from the Amarna Egyptian Pharaohs matched the genetic profiles of the population of the Great Lakes region.
In 2010 the Egyptian Government (Department of Antiquities) commissioned a DNA Study on the mummies of the Amarna Period; the 18th Dynasty. The study was performed by European biologist.
It was an autosomal DNA study, meaning the whole genetic profile of the specimen was examined: SRT scores, alleles in the chromosomes etc.
The results of the sudy was that ancient Egyptians were native Africans sharing affirnity to the Nabta Playa samples and East African population. The specific conclusion was that: the closest living genetic relatives of ancient Egyptians are Black South Africans and Great Lakes East Africans; Bantu populations with roots at Nabta Playa (north west Sudan).
The results were not published by the Egyptian government in 2010. So, DNA Tribes of Switzerland whose archeogenetists had participated in the team of European biologists published the Study under 'DNA Tribes: Genetic results of the Amarna Mummies show they are Sub-Saharan Africans'. The Egyptian government was thus finally forced to publish the study. DNA Consultants also independently verified the Study. The Study/results are available online on JAMA.
DNA tests were conducted on the mummies of Pharaoh Rameses III and his son, which proved that they belonged to human Y chromosome group E1b1a. This is the Y chromosome group of Sub Saharan Africans who speak Niger–Congo languages.
The disclosed Y chromosome group of the Pharaoh, at the time of releasing the report, was considered as just one of the details to make the investigation scientifically solid with facts. But its revelation caused a stir equal to the purpose of the original forensic investigation.
Another group of mummies from the Amarna period of Egyptian pharaohs were tested by DNA Tribes, an American Company which specialises in conducting DNA tests, in 2013.
The conclusion of the tests were that the mummies autosomal profiles would be most frequent in the present day populations of the African Great Lakes region and Southern Africa. Subsequent analysis of the autosomal profile of the mummy of Pharaoh Rameses III also concluded that this matched the genetic profiles of the population of the Great Lakes region as well.
This is deep they show the art on the wall of Black African people, but make a video of whites. What is wrong with Smithsonian??
Hamun is somali name
O m g , the name is naftihure that is somali
There were Caucasion women who were wives of Amun?
Please stop with the politics in history, history should be about truth, not the rise in feminism in current times where everything has to be altered for today's political climate. Its anti history, its cherry picking.
Egyptians were dark
They were.
The people on the walls were black but the actors are white lol
They definitely didn’t look like this though 😂😂😂
Why is it that when depicting African people there are white actors? Egyptian is a black civilization not white. There are a plethora of black people to tell our story.
IT'S BECAUSE OF THE DNA COMPLEX OF WOMEN RETAINING MALE MICROLIGY IN THIER BRAINS OF THE MEN THEY SLEEP WITH
Explaining anthropology to Afrocentrists is like trying to explain astrophysics to a flat earther. They think all of humanities genetic diversity is just black or white
You ever notice there are no Arabs depicted in Hieroglyphics
I would've beat up everyone dressing in my ancestors clothing death one by one
Lol they will white wash everything
I don't understand why they w
Have white people playing the rolls when the original people are clearly black 🤔
once they showed the milk colored actors i laughed
2:21 and there is a giant god holding a tiny human
Egyptians are Creole.
These have to be the WHITEST African ancestors I ever seen 😂
I want to see the real face
Bad
This video is about ancient writings and here yall go making it about race. Its just trying to tell a story mabey they were all they could get.. trolls
Copts are the descendants of ancient Egypt and other Northeast African populations have genetic admixture from them
“Those of the North-East cluster (Beja, Ethiopians, Arabs and Nubians) and Fulani. Populations from the North-East cluster: Beja, Ethiopians, Arabs and Nubians (Table 2) may be explained as admixture products of an ancestral North African population (similar to Copts) and an ancestral South-West population (Nuba, even if in one case Darfurians have better fit). These four populations had an intermediate position between Copts and South-West Sudanese populations both in the PC and admixture analyses.”
The genetics of East African populations: a Nilo-Saharan component in the African genetic landscape
Wow they washed the paintings
Even East Africans such as Amhara Ethiopians are genetically, phenotypically and culturally distinct from West Africans. It’s afrocentrists that just label all of Africa as just “black”
This temple complex is from the 18th dynasty. King tut and his grandfather Amenhotep III belonged to haplogroup r1b which is present in Western Europeans. Queen tiye belonged to maternal lineage K which is common among West Eurasian populations
“An investigative study was carried out on the familial relationships of a number of late 18th dynasty mummies (ca. 1550–1295 b.c.), including that of Tutankhamen. The study was based on the analysis of the autosomal and Y-chromosome STR markers in addition to mitochondrial hypervariable region 1 sequences. A 4-generation pedigree of Tutankhamun’s immediate lineage and the identity of his ancestors were established. The Royal male lineage was the Y-chromosome haplogroup R1b that was passed from the grandparent (Amenhotep III) to the father (KV55, Akhenaten) to the grandchild (Tutankhamen). The maternal lineage, the mitochondrial haplogroup K, extended from the great-grandmother (Thuya) to the grandmother (KV35 Elder lady, Queen Tiye) to the yet historically unidentified mother (KV35 Younger lady) to Tutankhamen”
Insights from ancient DNA analysis of Egyptian human mummies: clues to disease and kinship
Dynastic Egyptians were an Afroasiatic group. Therefore related to ethnicities in the Maghreb, Levant and Horn of Africa. It’s Afrocentrists that label all of Africa as just “black”
Afrocentrists swarm every video on ancient Egypt spouting DA GYPSHUNS WUZ BLACKITY BLACK BLACK DEM WYPIPO BEZ LYIN
Black Americans unironically think those paintings look West African 🤦🏻♀️
This comment section is a microcosm of why multiculturalism shouldn’t exist
YouTube keeps auto deleting over half my comments
Afrocentrism: Claim there’s a conspiracy to whitewash history while simultaneously trying to blackwash history
Egyptians didn’t depict themselves as black, I’m Egyptian and I’ve seen most of these hieroglyphics many times, the men was depicted in red or brown as they work outside, women were depicted in yellow as they work indoors

Why replace those beautiful dark skinned women on the walls with white chicks????
