    I’m aware of that, I don’t understand the complaint if the character is supposed to be Ethiopian or the like.

    But the source for there being plenty of black people in Ancient Greece I’d still like to see since it sounds like a pretty interesting claim. I hope the other person delivers.

      Ahh, fair enough. I hope so too, I’d be interested to read that. I can believe there would be at least some, because there was definitely steady contact between those two parts of the world at that time, but I don’t know specifics

        Yes, I’m sure there were a few at least but “plenty” sounds dubious. Of course I’m not sure what they meant with “plenty” here. But we’ll see when they come back with the source
