Marriage practices in Ancient Egypt changed over time. It is important to remember that we are talking about a nation that lasted thousands of years and still exists as a people group in the form of the Copts. Contrary to what is asserted in this video, incestuous marriages were not limited to the royals and priestly families in ancient Egypt, and we should not confuse practices of Ptolemaic Egypt with those of the New Kingdom or Old Kingdom centuries earlier. The issue is one of which ancient Egypt we are talking about, i. e. what time. The further back you go, the more widely-practiced incestuous marriage was.

The most accurate depiction of the racial make up of Egyptians I have ever seen. Some were very light skinned. Some were dark black. Some were brown. red. ect. That's what the artwork tells us drawn by the people themselves. They were not all dark black and were pretty sure that they were certainly not white. They were black as in African American( who are not all dark black) and it's high time that we accept this.

Egyptians as advanced civilisation not knowing that Incest is genetically wrong that lead to sickness and many mentally and physically illnesses! Just doesn't make sense. Secondly many priests will have literary still children as mistresses and as such many will die due not been developed to deliver baby. To make pyramids and in same time having such primitive customs is really confusing.

There's a 1983 mini-series about the end of the Egyptian Dinasties called The Cleopatras, which takes place from the marriage of Cleopatra II with her brother Ptolemy VIII in 145 B. C. to the suicide of Mark Anthony and Cleopatra VII in 36 B. C. Unfortunely, that mini-series was heavily critized, with many stating that it was a poor edgy attempt to imitate I, Claudius

Egyptians marriage was a siblings marriage, among the commons as much in the royals. All Egyptian love poems are about the brother - sister love.
Roman occupation authorities recorded that common Egyptians use to marry own sisters, even Macedonians in the Alexandria.
Also DNA common people mummies analysis approving that.

If the man is paying the bills shouldn't there be a perk to go along with the responsibility? In the 70's men had their rights striped away with no fault divorce today the educational system teaches them neuter themselves like this idiot did.

I understand they also had crocodile dung contraceptives. Their version of the morning after pill. It was interesting that they started the practice of wedding rings and wearing them on the fourth finger of the left hand.

This series would have been more credible it it depicted the Ancient Egyptians as they really were to wit white skin with light hair and light eyes. These politically correct depictions are false and really turn me off.

The script in the image at 0: 45 is Greek! So I doubt that the document in the image is from 1200 BC. Based on the script, I would estimate that document to date from roughly around the year 1000 AD.

Sodom was infused in Ancient Egypt, even as Biblical prophecy calls out what is Spiritually called Sodom & Egypt today refers to America, in its modern avatar.

I find it fascinating that the description of a religion interests me, given that I'm agnostic.
and the culture itself was super progressive.

Adulterers had their noses amputated. I guess that explains all these statues of people with their noses missing.
