Yeah....


Genetic studies linking modern Egyptians to ancient Egyptians: like 100

Genetic studies linking black Americans to ancient Egyptians: 0

Anything Semitic is accurate enough. Israeli Jews, like Gal Gadot, are closer to Cleopatra than Sub Saharans ever were

Imagine being Egyptian and being accused of being an invader on your own ancestors land.

Their style was different though. They had a thing for bowl cuts and they appeared to be clean shaven, whereas Arab men tend to get fades and grow out their facial hair.

I don't mean style, obviously. I mean ethnic features.

...You realize hieroglyphs predate Arabic by millennia, right?

Boy are you confused...

If you look at the map of Egypt, you will see it is in Africa, in Asia, and directly across from the Europe. It is the perfect crossroads of the world. It is where everyone comes.

I had to. I'm sorry. There's no proof that they're NOT. They could be advanced extraterrestrials who had a diaspora throughout the Caucasus and eventually the world, making a good portion of people secretly part alien!!!

I know a lot of people who never went to Egypt. Of course, I lived there for 950 years, but still ... "It's too hot." "It's too dry, my hair will be a mess!"

Feel free to deep dive into Twitter. You will find people claiming they are both the Pharaoh and the Jews.

I am fairly certain it has been one or the other since the book of exodus.

Nope: Most Indo-Europeans were blonde, blonde-ish, or even red-haired - and with blue or green eyes. It's only once they start marrying the indigenous southern Europeans (like the Pelasgians, in Greece) or other immigrants (Athens had a sizeable Phoenician bloodline) that they became brown-eyed and black-haired.

As mentioned before in this thread: Alexander the Great was blonde. The one colour picture we have of the man shows a dark blonde young man. The northern Dorians pictured themselves as blonde. Homer mentions fair-haired men (/heroes - pretty much the same to him). Cleopatra's grandmother was a blonde Greek woman.

Where does this need come from to dump all fair-haired people north of the Drava? It certainly isn't historically accurate!

Brown hair, brown eyes, tan skin.

He honestly looks like your average Greek in Greece today (altough it must be said that sideburns have fallen out of fashion).

Fashion is a fickle mistress, so it is safe to assume that those will become mainstream again sooner or later.

I'm sure someone has a study out there about how much of Alexander's DNA is in modern Greeks.
But I'm too lazy to get it.

Just like Attila the Hun's DNA can still be traced in Hungarians.
