Was Memnon Really Black?
Memnon was a primary figure in a now lost work which was part of the Trojan War Epic. He was not infrequently depicted in art and was known for being the leader of the Aethiopians. Later Greeks and Romans equated these people, and Memnon himself, with black Africans, yet their origin is much more mysterious. Was Memnon really black?
Please note that this is a mythological examination and is not related to the modern Ethiopian ethnic identity. This is in no way intended to cause offence to anyone. Solidarity with all peoples!
