Black Egyptians

[The Unbreakable]

Very intersting Indeed,

however this picture strikes me as strange:

IF the guy on the far left is an egyptian(which can be found out by reading the inscription), why is he depicted in the EXACTLY same way as the ... Nubian? I mean I can see why he would have the same skintone and physiognomy, but surely not the same clothes and haircut.

There are slight differences in dress (for example the Egyptian is wearing an earring), but I can't really answer why they were depicted as almost culturally identical. This mural is to represent what the ancient Egyptians believed as the groups of people who were allowed in the afterlife. Perhaps it was used to attest to the common origins of both Nubians and Egyptians, just my hunch.
