interesting, i had always heard that the arab invasions profoundly changed the demography of egypt, do you have any good links? i'm just curious
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_history_of_Egypt posted:Egypt has experienced several invasions during its history. However, these do not seem to account for more than about 10% overall of current Egyptians ancestry when the DNA evidence of the ancient mitochondrial DNA and modern Y chromosomes is considered.
In general, various DNA studies have found that the gene frequencies of modern North African populations are intermediate between those of the Horn of Africa and Eurasia,[17] though possessing a greater genetic affinity with the populations of Eurasia than they do with Africa.[3][3][4] The present population of the Sahara is Caucasoid in the extreme north, with a fairly gradual increase of Negroid component as one goes south.[6][18][19] The results of these genetic studies is consistent with the historical record, which records significant bidirectional contact between Egypt and Nubia, and the Levant/Middle East within the last few thousand years, but with general population continuity from the Early Dynastic Period of Egypt up to the modern day era.[20][21]
Ethnic cleansing and racial genocide is a recent phenomena, when most ancient countries are invaded the vast majority of the population stays put. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss, etc.

exodus is a boring loving story just like every other story the bible, at least greeks could make their religion interesting
plot is way to predictable, would not read again
