correct me if i'm wrong but aren't most ancient egyptian pharoah's middle eastern., as far as lineage...there was big protest over here about king tut being portrayed as something other than black(african) but weren't they all middle eastern?? I know there were a few Pharoah's toward the middle of egyptian rule that were nubian but generally speaking there weren't many black rulers and king tut was not one of them...am i correct in saying this????

  1. yes you're right, DNA tests on ancient and modern egyptians shows they are of the same stock. The modern egyptians are the descendants of these ancient Egyptians. The DNA tests confirmed a close relationship between the modern Egyptians living in the Nile Valley and the ancient workers who had been buried there.


  2. *Scientifically speaking the first person on earth Adam and Eve were Black... Black is the original race...  Makes sense too because Black is the color of all colors. and White is the Absence of all color so to get all the colors in between you would have to start from black and slowly deplete the pigment until you get white

  3. You are correct, the Nubian rulers didn't come until later, & the earlier Pharaohs such as Tut & Rameses were very similar to the modern Egyptian.

  4. You are correct.  Tut was a real Egyptian.  The Nubians came later, and later yet, came the Greeks.  A lot of folks don't realize that Cleopatra and her family were Greek.  Her grandfather Ptolomy fought with Alexander the Great, and was awarded Egypt for his services.  I believe they lasted three or four generations.
