just so everyone is clear. ethnically Egypt is not African. the Egyptian royal line was Greek after the invasion of Alexander the Great it was called the Ptolemaic dynasty. the area was much more heavily influenced by the middle east and Europe than it was any African group from an ethnic stand point. so next time someone says Cleopatra wasn't white kindly tell them to **** off. she was Ptolemaic.
Yeah but this is Tutankhamun who ruled 1100 years before the Ptolemaic Dynasty. In any case, modern Egyptians are quite different from Ancient Egyptians physiologically. Ancient Egyptians were emphatically African - not as dark as more Southern populations, but definitely different from other Middle Eastern populations,
