We don't see many of the above, in England, despite the size of the black population. Are there any black re-enactors out there, perhaps doing Ancient Egypt? There should be Ethiopians and Sudanese. Libyans and Numidians?
There's a reference to Ethiopians dressing a beautiful maiden in Hoplite armour, including Corinthian helmet, somewhere (Xenophon?). It would be great to represent some of the great civilizations of Ancient Africa.
I have mentioned, elsewhere, the possibility of having Indian/Pakistani re-enactors in a Greek festival. Any takers?
