Ebony is dense black wood. It's dense enough to sink in the water. However, when polished it becomes very smooth and can be finely textured. It's vastly used in ornamental industry. The word 'Ebony' came from ancient Egyptian word 'hbny'.
Therefore, it can be easily understood why black people are called or referred as ebony.
