I would include this as a continuation of the superiority thread, but I feel a sense of exhaustion emanaitng from it so thought it best to start afresh.
I consider Ancieny Egypt as an African achievement in the same way that Europeans would consider Eastern Europe or Russia European achievements though these cultures were Part Asiatic. The genetic origins of Egypt were in Africa and there are tell tale marks all over the civilisation. Im not arguing that Egyptians are African, mainly because the word "African is more a pejorative genetic slight.
Africa is the most genetically diverse place on the planet and this image:http://wysinger.homestead.com/africanlanguage.jpg
shows how the different parts of Africa interact to form a unified African identity. Its important to rememer too that while there is genetic continuity from ancient to modern egypt the phenotypes are different. The whole debate is informed by the perception that Africa is and always has been backward but thats a new discussion.
