you have so found my weakness (well, except for #4).

Statue of Horemakhet, high priest of Amun in Thebes (25th dynasty) Egyptian style carving with some Kushite features
As a sci-fi fan I've always had a weakness for anything related to the Kushite/Meroitic culture. They are often pegged as the bad guys (something to do with the dark skin and alien culture perhaps?) but also are often played by bronzed gods worthy of a wet dream.
Oddly their script has been deciphered or transliterated but their
language has never been translated.
