Abstract

The name DGGTB (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Geschichte und Theorie der Biologie; German Society for the History and Philosophy of Biology) reflects recent history as well as German tradition. The Society is a relatively late addition to a series of German societies of science and medicine that began with the “Deutsche Gesellschaft für Geschichte der Medizin und der Naturwissenschaften”, founded in 1910 by Leipzig University’s Karl Sudhoff (1853-1938), who wrote: “We want to establish a ‘German’ society in order to gather German-speaking historians together in our special disciplines so that they form the core of an international society…”. Yet Sudhoff, at this time of burgeoning academic internationalism, was “quite willing” to accommodate the wishes of a number of founding members and “drop the word German in the title of the Society and have it merge with an international society”. The founding and naming of the Society at that time derived from a specifi c set of historical circumstances, and the same was true some 80 years later when in 1991, in the wake of German reunification, the “Deutsche Gesellschaft für Geschichte und Theorie der Biologie” was founded. From the start, the Society has been committed to bringing studies in the history and philosophy of biology to a wide audience, using for this purpose its Jahrbuch für Geschichte und Theorie der Biologie. Parallel to the Jahrbuch, the Verhandlungen zur Geschichte und Theorie der Biologie has become the by now traditional medium for the publication of papers delivered at the Society’s annual meetings. In 2005 the Jahrbuch was renamed Annals of the History and Philosophy of Biology, reflecting the Society’s internationalist aspirations in addressing comparative biology as a subject of historical and philosophical studies.

36. THE RACIAL IDENTIFY OF ANCIENT EGYPTIAN POPULATIONS BASED ON THE ANALYSIS OF PHYSICAL REMAINS.

Abstract

This article focuses on the racial identity of Egyptians based on the analysis of physical remains. The earliest human fossil found in the state was the skeleton of the Nazlet Khater man which was dated to 35,000-30,000 B.C. In 1982, Wendorf discovered a skeleton at Wadi Kubbaniya. The skeleton has wide nasal aperture, lower nasal margin morphology, wide interorbital distance and alveolar prognathism. Greene and Armelagos analyzed a collection of crania dating from 13,000 to 8,000 B.C. The skulls were dolichocephalic with bun-shaped occiputs and displayed extreme facial flattening.
