>>133076546what?theyre made up factions inspired by real factions they show 3 different cultures and shades of brown and black in the collaseaus episodes

>>133076619Nah nigger. Celts were unmistakeably Celtics. Vikings were based on fictional Vikings. They show Englishmen in primal theory implying they’re taking real world people and plopping them into this fictional setting. Even the Egyptians were unmistakably Egyptian despite being a little brown. There was nothing resembling Levantines in mira’s people. Every the landscape seemed more African than Levantine. Why even make her speak Arabic?

>>133076597Episode 1 spear did not pledge himself to surtr for superpowers tho, also he abandoned seeking revenge before the red dinos ate up fangs babies

The Egyptians had the best drip, but they were not a technologically innovative people. They lasted thousands of years as a result of a largely stable environment and formidable geographic barriers. Aside from a few key inventions, like papyrus, most new technology was imported. The fact that crackers want to claim that shit for their own is hilarious.

>>133076706>>133076817Nubians are the original black people of the Sudan and southern Egypt ever since antiquity - the Nubians even conquered Egypt and ruled it for one dynasty. Like the Copts, they also got intermixed with the invading Arabs during the rise of Islam.Today, like Copts, there are still Nubians out there, but most of the descendants of ancient Nubians are just Arabized.

>>133076546She was voiced by a French-Lebanese actress but I've never seen her as Lebanese. It would be like saying Spear is a Frenchman because his VA is.The Lebanese women I've fucked are short and stout; less than 5'0, very voluptuous with rounded facial features. Mira is very tall and slim, which had always pointed her towards being North African.

>>133077403Where is the racism, faggot? It is indeed odd that she and her father:1 - doesn't look like the rest of her people, being weirdly tall, light skinned next to them, long faced and with different lips2 - speak an Arabic language (and not any form of Arab, one from middle east), rather than an African dialect, when all other people on the show spoke their equivalent in real life.Mira looks straight up like an outsider, and wouldn't be surprised if they changed it later in production for season 2. Noticing these things has nothing to do with racism, you gringos are just obsessed and try to not notice things out of fear.

>>133078293You’re probably right. The entire season was reworked, Genndy has said this outright. It’s clear Mira was meant to be from a more Egyptian style culture which is where Spear would end up finding her. But Genndy suddenly got scared his pulp throwback was too derivative of things like 10,000 BC, so he turned the slavers with their desert scorpion themed sigil into Vikings. He then segmented the evil slaver empire into the Colloseaus which was essentially 10,000 BC on a boat anyway but since Mira was now unrelated he obviously just chose to do an African style tribe so the only blacks people in the show wouldn’t literally all just be half naked slaves. He made a mistake in trying to inject real world cultures into the show, all it did was muddy the fantasy of the Dinosaur world and turn these threads into racebait arguments.

>>133076546I did not think they would round the final quarter grand prix like that

>>133076546It's entirely possible they're Numidians or Punics, somewhere that would be in the sphere of both Phoenician and native African cultural mixture.

>>133082458No.Punics, the people of Qarthadasht, originated as a colonial population of Tyrian Phoenicians. They would be pretty close to the other Levantine Semitic peoples ethnographically, such as the Canaanites and Arameans. The Numidians were the native population in the area, and based on what we know of their language and writing are the direct ancestors of the modern Amazigh/Berber peoples.

They are a mix of ancient INDIGENOUS North Africans and later Middle Eastern Farmers with very little European or Arab DNA.

>>133076706Nice reference bro

>>133078918Country? Isnt this the fucking stone age?

You know what I think happened. In season 1 Mira was probably just designed to be a generic brown slave lady, and when they hired the voice actress because she could speak Arabic they just made Mira speak Arabic because it sounds Bronze Age. Then in season 2 they decided to give her a proper background but since she already spoke Arabic they couldn’t change that.

>>133077038Because most languages from that era are forgotten. Take Egyptian for example. We can translate it thanks to the Rosetta stone, but we'll never know how Ancient Egyptian actually SOUNDED like.The modern answer is either having them speak either English or English with a sorta African/Arabian accent, or just have them speak Egyptian Arabic because that's the best we can really do.

>>133088704I think it became abundantly clear that Mira owed her entire continued existence to Spear. It started off as a mutual partnership but when a Caveman left his whole worldview behind, built a raft, killed countless civilizations and cultures that were being enslaved and rampaged thru by a tyrannical Egyptian Empire I think Mira knew "yeah he is absolutely down to smash."I thought they were gonna end this with Mira having a lover.
