black man's head from Sardinia, 500 bc
While there are Ethiopians who look like that, I doubt that woman was an actual Ethiopian, unless Ethiopians were significantly "blacker" back then. Thanks to being FARMER'D, most but not all Ethiopians look like a combination of both women. Didn't the Greeks call all black people Ethiopian?
>the notion of race was invented by 18th century europea-
Ironically, Caucasoid gene flow into the Ethiopian gene pool occurred predominantly through males. Conversely, the Niger–Congo contribution to the Ethiopian population occurred mainly through females.[25]
Shouldn't surprise anyone, neolithic farmers BLEACHED the hell out of the negroids. Too bad they didn't pursue their BLEACHING further down in Africa.
Right is clearly a Nordic woman. Apologize to Nordicists right now, Veeky Forums
To the Greeks, Africa might have very roughly looked like this.
This has been proven wrong
Macrobia is further north and east.
They sure as hell BLEACHED Europeans though.
Well you gonna post a source.
This is impressively pathetic. No one has the said the notion of people from different places looking different was a european invention and the fact that you imply that proves your retarded.
Ethiopia and Abyssinia basically referred to Africa South of the southern most cataract in Egypt. By the time that bust was made the Semitic kingdom of D'mt had been established. Before that the area was probably inhabited exclusively by Nilotes and Cushitic speakers.
It's a shame how such a beautiful island is now being bidden on between scummy proxies and mercantilists.

I'd say nobody really knew what was in between Gabon and Cape Corrientes. Agisymba was also a big region north of lake Chad, and imo Macrobia was probably closer to the Ubangi River area. Azania should probably start around Mogadishu, if not Pate.

That's a really ugly "Ethiopian". I know there are a few people who look like that in real life, but sometime tells me that the features were exaggerated. Even the Egyptians, who hated Nubians, wouldn't do that.
>but sometime tells me that the features were exaggerated
Yeah, kind of like how anti-Asian propaganda exaggerates the the slantiness of their eyes and whatnot.
Well, Ethiopian was just what Greeks called Black people. It literally just means burnt face, i.e. Black skinned. Ethiopians would have been more readily available from southern Egypt, where there are black Nubians so that's why we call modern Ethiopia Ethiopia.
This vase actually looks like a Black Person from the west, with very prominent lips and a protruding muzzle.
It could be caricatured, though. Also, that Ethiopian's head is most likely a Woman and not a man.
This piece was probably a curio that showed the variety of people in the world
It is basically blackface of that time
I just realized that 2000 years ago there was a bigger difference between the blackest and the light brownest Ethiopians because of regression towards the mean.
Bigger, but those genetic lineages were already 10s of thousands years old by then. The woman on the right is a Greek. The jug's purpose was to show the difference between a Greek woman and a Black one.
