Egyptians prompted Count Constantin de Volney (1727-1820) to write, "What a subject for meditation, Just think the race of black men today our slaves and the object of our scorn, is the very race to which we owe our arts, science, and even the use of our Speech."
Ham was one of Noah's three sons, also Shem and Japhet made three. Ham (Khawm) means hot, black and burnt.
Ham had four sons all black. Cush father of the Ethiopians / Cushites. Mizraim father of the Egyptians / Khemets. Phut, father of the Lybian or Somalians and the Caananites the original inhabitants of Israel. Genesis 10:6-19
