I don't think people realize exactly how many groups of people have run through Egypt. 

Romans, Arabs, the British etc.....it could have been anyone.

It's crazy to see people on here sincerely trying to push the "white" people discrediting "black" people !!*#@+$! that I'm sure they continue to tell themselves every day. Some guy talking about, "I thought everyone knew that." No, maybe you're just really simple minded. Whatever floats your boat.

It was the white people who destroyed it... I believe it was when Napolean came through with his Jesuit gang.... They came from the tombs with the song we know today as the cross... Brought it back to Europe and said" with this sign we shall conquer" .

Blacks and Arabs lived together in N Africa and co existed better than most would think. All the pharaohs weren't black some were of Arab decent none of Caucasian decent as they would like you to think.

The nose was seen far away so they decided to cut it off to strip our people of our history.

My boy's girlfriend has a nose just like Queen Tiy and she's Greek and Italian. I've been hypothesizing that she has some African in her as well, so this is intriguing nonetheless.

Onto the matter at hand:

It wouldn't surprise me if the Napolean used the nose as target practice since he was a vindictive prick, but the actual removal of the nose was probably cause by that dude they lynched.
