Mary LEFKOWITZ
(1935 -)



There is no reason why the fact that Greek is fundamentally Indo-European should not be combined with the Ancient Model’s multiple reports of Egyptian and Semitic influences. However, such cultural and linguistic mixture was intolerable to the Romantic racists who established the Aryan Model and who, like Mary Lefkowitz today, insisted that there had been no significant Egyptian influence on Greece.
