Egyptology


"Egyptologists were dumb-founded with admiration for the past grandeur and perfection then discovered. They gradually recognized it as the most ancient civilization that had engendered all others. But imperalism being what it is, it became increasingly "inadmissible" to continue to accept the theory-evident until then-of a Negro Egypt. The birth of Egyptology was thus marked by the need to destroy the memory of a Negro Egypt at any cost in all minds"
