152 : 12. Negroes seem to have been unknown in Egypt and Nubia in
pre-dynastic days and only appear in small numbers in the third and
fourth dynasties, in the South. The great ruins on the Zambezi at
Zimbabwe were probably the work of the Mediterranean race and are to be
dated about 1000 B. C. In other words, all northeast Africa, including
Nubia, the northern Sudan, the ancient Kingdom of Meroë at the junction
of the Blue and White Niles, Abyssinia and the adjoining coast were
originally part of the domain of the Mediterranean race.
In the recent kingdom of the Mahdi, the predominant element was not
Negro but Arab more or less mixed.
