What Factions In Eb Do we know the least about?

[sass]

I'm thinking getai and saba.

I've been doing some reading about thracian tombs Did getai have such tombs as are being found for the thracians? I think it would be cool to have a building in the getai capital like the pontic kings tombs and one for getai and i've done some reading about saba, and the account in the bible where a queen from saba. We know for a fact that Cleo wasent black she was greek..Im also thinking the queen from saba was an arab and not african and black? anyone know anymore on this?

Saba/Sheba/Sabyn had many incarnations, rising and falling. The Sheba from the Bible isn't necessarily the same exact people, though most likely related. I always think of the Queen of Sheba as an Arab queen. It is also an issue of national pride for many peoples and has an emotional argument to it.

Well true, But i've done some reading and found that she was indeed from one of the saba tribes..but quiet some time of course before this game comes about, I know saba had land in africa but i'm doutful if any of there royal family was african..Knowing how arabs view outsiders today and then i think it would be highly doutful also i read that isreal at the time had large trade deals..I'm not willing with out proof that she was african..I'm no more racist then the next fella but Arabs do not like to mix with none arab races and this thinking has never changed. Slaves yes..boots for there military yes as did eygpt and carthage etc..Arabs have sought to keep pure blood lines in there familys..Please don't flame me just looking for ideas..

I was watching a program on the Bio channel about Cleopatra and Knowing since the time she was alive that her and her family where white greeks from europe why anyone would think she was purely black? And haveing all these black culturel folks on there talking about this and that partaining to her..the same people who say christ was black lol Makes one wonder about the crediablity of Bio channel and the histroy channel after seeing that..Never ending sorce of amusement..

you seem to have very false ideas about the arabs, they have never been into racial segragation in any big way, have you ever been to an "arabic" country? its is fairly obvious thqat alot of racial mixing has occured.

Yes i have worked and lived..But this has nouthing to do with the topic..

But for the most part most groups that are there now dont represent the time where talking about now..the pre-islamic arabia..and even now most of the people who live in the middle east are blacks working or migrents trying to get out of africa..there not treated very well and the arabs greatly dislike people who are not arab this is not made up but fact. case in point in saudi arabia thy genrealy dislike non arab muslims or converts..and thy look down on blacks and whites, the point is that thy keep to them selfs and only import what thy need for there dayly lives and people to work for them..this is true today as well..And to a certen degree today..if you where non arab cought in there territory you'd be killed most travels that went to arabia didnet stay long for obvious reasians not to unlike today in some areas its not safe and the climent isent very friendly when sabas water supplys and dams gave out thy left...

Mohammed and others like him had a less then favirable opinion of anyone non arab expeasly blacks..he had a few distasteful names for them that i won't put in the forum..

The topic was about what EB factians do we know not much about..and about getai and the royal tombs..that was my questian..
