Reveal hidden contents HQ version of Taharqa Two extremes of Ancient Kushite phenotype, North Sudanes (Nubian), South and West Sudanese (Nuba, Dinka, Nuer). Harsiotef and Nastasen were probably more of the "Northern" Look. Arakamani and Amanirenas more towards the Southern look.

Expand lol, I actually keep forgetting to mention it more in depth, but "scarification" was practiced by Kushites. Tribal markings, giving specific information about identity, or having spiritual/cultural significance.. The skin is literally cut open in a particular way, which heals in a particular way, and can be used to make markings or patterns in some cases. Extreme tattooing... Wasn't universal among Kushites, but was practiced extensively by some sub-groups, and can range from a simple, single cut, to full face and body patterns. It's a dying practice... --WARNING-- not for the fainthearted -- WARNING -- Reveal hidden contents Kushite King, Meroitic period: Egyptian relief of Kushite captives Nigerian example In Ghana we keep it simple (mostly).
