They were a splinter group of proto-Bedouins

Honestly why the hell does it matter?

We have this huge thread yesterday.

They weren't black.
They weren't white
They weren't Arabs.

They were of the group that Arabs, Berbers and semites belong to belong to, before they splintered off. The modern Egyptian population is 90% the same as the ancient population according to genetics, history and language.

Depends on which Egyptians you're talking about, and if you're talking about the ruling class. There was a dynasty of pharaohs who were pitch black Nubians, and the Ptolemaic dynasty were as white as can be.

>white as can be
Depends what you mean by white--they certainly weren't pasty nordics

>>317017
None of those cover even 10% of the Egyptian Dynasties.

This. Also if I remember right the coptic language is the descendant of ancient egyptian.

Cops are the descendants of ancient egyptians and no different ethnically from most other egyptians.

Well they did have a functional society, so you can cross blacks out of the options :^)

It matters because what afrocentrists are doing is falsifying history.

It is as preposterous as claiming that the Vikings were black.

>>317017
>Nubians
>pitch black

The same they always were.

African Americans need to realize that they are from West Africa. Egypt is in Northeast Africa. They are very far. And there is Sahara in the way.

Even if all Egyptians were pharaos and all Egypts were black as coal, Americans still wouldn't be Kingz and Queenz. Just like Iranians are not Samuraiz and shit, just because they are Asian.

Halfdan the Black was a Viking King.

Can someone dig up some images of a ultra Orthodox christian group in Egypt now? They should be pretty well preserved so to say.

The nickname Black came from his black hair.

all you need to do is stop perpetuating the memes by dedicating a thread to it and pick up a book senpai
