Before the Pyramids: The Origins of Egyptian Civilization with Emily Teeter

Emily Teeter, Research Associate at the Oriental Institute and Curator of the "Before the Pyramids: The Origins of Egyptian Civilization" exhibit at the OI gave this talk to Oriental Institute Members during a special preview of the exhibit. The exhibit runs through December 31, 2011.
For more about becoming a member of the OI visit: oi.uchicago.edu/getinvolved/
This exhibit of artifacts from the Predynastic and Early Dynastic periods (ca. 4000-2685 BC), documents the birth of the most fundamental aspects of ancient Egyptian civilization - architecture, hieroglyphic writing, a belief in the afterlife, and allegiance to a semi-divine king - more than 1,000 years before the pyramids were built. Joining the 140 objects from the permanent collection of the Oriental Institute are the Battlefield Palette and a statue of the Second Dynasty king Khasekhem, two masterworks of Egyptian art from the Ashmolean Museum of Oxford University.

    PT4. The discovery of the Qustul Incense Burner is considered one of the earliest certifiable uses of incense by a culture. This Qustul burner also rose a debate regarding the Nubian origin of Egyptian civilization. Upon the Incense Burner is a relief of a royal procession considered by many archeologists as evidence of the worlds first monarchy. This debate maintains that Nubian culture often referred to as Ta-seti, developed as early as 7000 B.C.

    As far as Nubia being the origin of Egyptian kingship. This info challenges that. Many people view Nubia as where Egyptian kingship started. This idea is based on the Qustul incense burner found in Nubia. This info is on a falcon figurine found in the Egyptian city of Hierakonpolis. It's dated to have been made around 3700 B.C. The falcon was associated with kingship in Egypt. So this figurine demonstrates that kingship was already present in Egypt before the Qustul burner(3200 B.C). That incense burner could likely be an Egyptian import into Nubia. Look up: Falcon figurine Renée Friedman

What difference does it make? If people didn't always draw attention to it, it wouldn't exist. Just look at little kids. They don't give a shit. They just accept everyone all the same until someone makes them aware of it. We are all in this together. Stop making a big deal out of it and it will go away.

It was in one of these graves, "L-24" coded by the excavators, that the mysterious incense burner came to light. An incense burner with figures and pictographs gouged deep into the clay. This censer had been found, not in Egypt, but nearly 200 miles deep in Nubia. The inscription showed three ships sailing in procession.

The central boat carries the king, sitting and equipped with long robe, flail and White Crown. All motifs that would later become symbols of Pharaonic rule in Egypt. This piece had been made no later than 3400 B.C. At that early date, there were not supposed to have been any such things as pharaohs or pharaohs' palaces.

    Funny how some people reason. Where do you think many African cultures get their tradition of rituals from. Until recent decades, when a king pass away in some parts of Africa (e.g. Yorubaland, south-west Nigeria) the corpse his buried with life human, someone called "abobaku" (meaning he who is to die with the king). Someone who is an "abobaku" live in the palace with the king before his passing to his ancestors. And in our culture we don't say a king die if he passes away. We simply say he has gone to meet his ancestors. One only need to compare cultural practices in ancient Egypt to different parts of the world and see where some of these practises are still sustained in present time.

    Just because it says African does not mean it refers to black Africa. There is a group called the northern or sub saharan Africans. They are not black. Kemet does not refer to black Egyptians and Imhotep (probably Yosef of the Hebrews) was never referred to as a black man. Yosef himself was a 3rd generation Sumerian immigrant to what is now Judea and Samaria. The Pharaohs who were generational with the Hebrews in Egypt were the ruling elites who were in kinship with the Hittites who also were in kinship with the Hebrews. Sarah and Rebecca came from that tribe. Possible origin were by Gobekli Tepi builders, them selves probably survivors of a catastrophe.

There's plenty of videos on the Pharaohs and everyday life of Egyptians citizens. But the pottery and other material remains are the only reason we know anything about those people in the first place. The fact you think she didn't mention the people at all throughout this video just tells me that you shouldn't be engaging with this type of historical analysis because it was the people who made that pottery. That's the whole point of the lecture. Seeing what information we can gather through the examination of material remains.

    “…communities in Upper Egypt began to coalesce into three regional groupings....Strategic factors help to explain the early dominance of these three prehistoric kingdoms. One kingdom was centered on the town of Tjeni (near modern Girga), a site where the floodplain narrowed and allowed the town’s inhabitants to control river traffic. This area was also where trade routes from Nubia and the Saharan oases met the Nile Valley. A second territory had its capital at Nubt (the golden,” modern Nagada). Which controlled access to gold mines in the Eastern Desert via the Wadi Hammamats on the opposite bank of the river. A third kingdom had grown up around the settlement of Nekhen, which like Tjeni, was the starting point of a desert route to the oases (and then to Sudan) and, like Nubt, controlled access to important Eastern Desert gold reserves, in this case the more southernly deposits reached via a wadi directly opposite the town.” Dr. Toby Wilkinson

    Just a hypothesis, if the level of art in Egypt has been such since the dawn of their civilization and continued on thru the next millenia with the same compelling consistency as Ms. Teeter suggests, then what happened in the pre- and post-Ptolemaic (Cleopatra) Dynasty? Are they still the same ancient ethnic group or is it that the Mayan enigma happened to the original ethnic Egyptian? Where is the ancient race? I'm sure Zahi Hawas and Hosni Mubarak aren't one of them lol. Any answers?

Why does even in this video that is trying to prove the existence of a strength in the north of Egypt, the old lady show the so called "oldest inscribed known statue" with a king that is only wearing the upper egypt crown ( the one of Southern Egypt ) ? The rulers and founder of Egypt are the people of the south. Even Osiris who is known as the first ruler of both Egypts only wears the White crown which symbolize upper Egypt (South) in all his representations. You must wonder why folks. The rulers are the people of the south and these people were known for their blackness. Even tho 90% of the egytians were black africans, those of the south were blacker because they didn't mix themselves with the foreigners they lived deeper in africa so foreigners had to travel more lands to get there, but they didn't because the area of Memphis was fine and closer.

And, if I’m not mistaken some indigenous African tribes have an oral history of coming from the north and settling in the south. Go look at the Andamanese.

    Some people seem to be confused by the fact that Egypt (as it is called today in much of the world) is an African country and is also considered to be part of the so-called 'Middle East', as though it were a contradiction for an entity to have different identities and attachments for different purposes. Many countries belong to one continent but have cultural, historical, political ties with countries if a different continent - not to mention genetic connections amongst their populations - and we apply terms to reflect this. For example, the term Mediterranean country' can be applied to North African countries such as Morocco, Tunisia and Algeria, as well as European countries such as France, Spain, and Italy. There is a huge amount of African blood and African cultural influence in all the above-mentioned European countries, dating from ancient times to the present, yet those countries are undisputedly European. Many comments here seem to be being made by Americans, who are notoriously cut off from the rest of the world not only geographically but in terms of their ability to appreciate that things are not ghettoized in the same way overseas.

We all have differing perspectives based on our life experiences and education, and we are entitled to those perspectives. If we are sincere, we will want to learn and grow as individuals by modifying our perspectives in response to hearing other viewpoints and opinion. We will want to engage with others who can challenge and stimulate us. Resorting to personal insults and foul language to a person who happens to have a different viewpoint - the weakest possible form of response - usually suggests a lack of substance in the argument of the person doing the insulting, and a lack of desire to engage with other people to the extent that is needed if we sincerely want to move forward - as well as a general contempt for humanity. I hope that you have not been habitually addressed in the manner in which you have chosen to address me. I would love to hear more of your ideas, if they are framed in a way which shows a respect for others.

    @Sergio The Schout So much to unpack. I will be brief. Apparently, your knowledge of history is severely limited or you do not like truth. I refer you to a book called "Afrikan Presence in Early Europe" by Runoko Rashidi. This book details the documented evidence that demonstrates Afrikans were at the foundation of Europe. Spain and southern Europe were ruled by Moors, Afrikans, at different locals for up to 800 years. I cannot speak to brutality in wars. Europeans, of course, excel in this venue, war and brutality. Finally, humanity, genetically, is Afrikan. Europeans are a selective adaptation to particular climate conditions. All human genetic expression is found in the original man, the Afrikan. One could compare humanity to fruit. Humanity is Afrikan and is thus fruit. Europeans are an expression of humanity like unto an apple. Sorry Sergio these are facts. Get mad at the creator. He is coming back to clean up the mess. Love and Gratitude

    Has anyone ever wondered why so-called "Afrocentric" scholars (not only black people but also notable white academics) never claim that the other members of the Ptolemaic dynasty before Cleopatra nor that every single Egyptian dynasty up to the time of the Ptolemy was black? That is because they are not just structuring their arguments on some feel-good notion of racial superiority but on written evidence. Some of the most often quoted historians from the time of the ancient Egyptians about what race the people were are Strabo, (born c. 64 bce, Amaseia, Pontus-died after 21 ce), Greek geographer and historian, Diodorus Siculus Diodorus Siculus (fl. 1st century BC) or Diodorus of Sicily a Greek historian, and Herodotus (born in Halicarnassus in the Persian Empire (modern-day Bodrum, Turkey) and lived in the fifth century BC (c. 484-c. 425 BC), "The Father of History"). In his Histories, Herodotus states in several passages that the Egyptians were black. According to most translations, Herodotus says that a Greek oracle was known to be from Egypt because she was "black", that the natives of the Nile region are "black with heat", and that Egyptians were "black-skinned with woolly hair". Lucian of Samosata (125 AD - after 180 AD) observes an Egyptian boy and notices that he is not merely black, but has thick lips. Diodorus Siculus mentioned that the Aethiopians (read sub-Saharan Africa) considered the Egyptians a colony. Apollodorus of Damascus (a Syrian-Greek engineer, architect, designer and sculptor from Damascus, Roman Syria, who flourished during the 2nd century AD), calls Egypt the country of the black-footed ones (or “Aethiopians”). Aeschylus (c. 525/524 - c. 456/455 BC), a Greek poet, wrote that Egyptian seamen had "black limbs." Greeks sometimes referred to Egyptians as Aethiopians - not to be confused with inhabitants of the modern-day nation of Ethiopia who was instead referred to as Abyssinians or Habesha and their land as Abyssinia. Sir Gaston Camille Charles Maspero KCMG was a French Egyptologist (June 23, 1846 - June 30, 1916) states that "by the almost unanimous testimony of ancient [Greek] historians, they [ancient Egyptians] belonged to the African race, which settled in Ethiopia". Quotes from the source material (mostly Greeks and Romans who lived at the time): Pindar, "Cushites, Colchians, and Khazars". Journal of Near Eastern Studies 18 (1): 49-53: a Greek poet also described the Colchians (that Herodotus compares to the Egyptians - their forebears) as being "dark-skinned". Saint Jerome and Sophronius 350 to 400 AD, referred to Colchis as the "second Ethiopia" (sub-Saharan Africa not the country by that name) because of its 'black-skinned' population. Imagine if Pindar had described the people of Colchis as “light-skinned” or Saint Jerome and Sophronius had represented them as the “second Greece” because of their complexions. Neither of these writers did! Aristotle’s “Physiognomika” describes the physical traits of the Egyptians and Ethiopians (sub-Saharan Africans) as bowlegged ("bandy-legged") and 'curly-haired'. He wonders if this is due to the fact that their bodies became "distorted by heat, like logs of wood when they become dry". He contends that the hair of the Ancient Egyptians supports the theory, as it is curlier than that of other nations. Imagine if Aristotle had said “straight-legged” and “fine-hair”; or "straighter" than that of their neighbors to the south. He did not. What if an ancient Greek had described the Egyptians as having hair texture just a little curlier than their own hair but not as curly as their Ethiopian neighbors to the south. This alone would have been enough to perpetuate the “white-Egyptian theory”, however, Aristotle did not! He said the opposite. Strabo Ammianus Marcellinus (325/330-after 391) after his own observation stated that the Egyptians were "mostly brown and black" (like black people). Imagine if Marcellinus had said “mostly pink and tanned” (like whites). This alone would have been enough to perpetuate the “white-Egyptian theory”, however, Marcellinus did not! Marcus Manilius described the Egyptians as lighter than the Moors: "the land of Egypt, flooded by the Nile, darkens bodies more mildly owing to the inundation of its fields." (Before this statement excites you, please note that "Moors" are mostly black and range in complexions like the Egyptians). More to the point, imagine if Manillius had written: the land of Egypt, flooded by the Nile, darkens Egyptians more severely than the Greeks and Asiatic." Imagine if Marcellinus had said "similar to the Romans" or "just a little darker than the Ascetics". This alone would have been enough to perpetuate the “white-Egyptian theory”, however, Manilius did not! There are certainly ancient historical writers like Nearchus, Megasthenes and Eratosthenes (Strabo and Arrian also draw from them) who compare the range of complexions in ancient Egypt to the Indian population of the time. They said that Indians (Indo-Arian linguistic groups and Dravidians) are like the Egyptians and “Ethiopians” (Sub-Saharan black people not modern day Ethiopia and both descended of Ham according to Hebrew writers) burnt in color and described the Egyptians as having similar features (facial bone structure minus prognathism like most Indians) but any forensic Scientist would tell you, modern day Ethiopians, jet-black Sudanese and other Neolithic people who are considered “black”, have these same “Caucasoid” features without prognathism: For further discussion: kzread.info/dash/bejne/iYmoo9qOgc3dcpc.html

Likewise, the Metu Neter is much older and many of the scripts found furthest South have not been ciphered by main stream Egyptologist. We find that the Ancient Nubians migrated further North along the Nile, building Civilizations and Temples, practicing the Mysteries of the Universe. We see such ancient mysteries among the Dogon and many other Tribes.

He’s talking about different pyramids. the Nubia(lower Nubia/upper Nubia m) of the ancient times was not an ethnic marker, but a region bounded by the first and sixth cataracts of the river Iteru (Nile). The name of a non-Egyptian kingdom south of Nubia is “Kush". 3 out of the forty-two traditional administrative divisions of ancient Egypt were located in ancient Nubia, and that part of Nubia was not considered as part of Kush. Kush conquered Nubia at the end of the old kingdom for(700 years), Nubia was retaken during the new kingdom hence why you see Kushites in captivity. The word “Nubia” wasn’t even employed until the late Roman era.
