One of the same series (Fig. 168), on a largerscale, taken from It should be ob-served that he is shaded browner than the nexthead (Fig. 169); thereby showing the two com-monest colors and physiognomical lineamentsprevalent among Nubian Barabra of the presentday; who, whether owing to amalgamation, orfrom original type, approach closer to the Negrothan do the adjacent tribes — Ababdeh, Bisha-riba, &c. The same group supplies a lighter (cinnamon) shaded sample of aNubian Berberri (Fig. 169); whose name in the Arabic plural is Bar-abra. The identical designation, BaRaBaRa, is applied to the samepeople in the sculptures of several Pharaohs of the XVIIth andXVHIth dynasties, 1500 years b. NEGRO TYPES. 251 Fia. 169. Fia. 170.
