Not OP, but there's a huge difference between modeling cultural diffusion and claiming that Greece was colonized by Egyptians, and that Greeks aren't Indo-European.

They didn't get their knowledge from the Egyptians, but they did get some artistic inspiration.

More importantly, Egypt was not black. So the entire idea is horseshit.
