Were Ancient Egyptians genetically closer to Modern Egyptians or Modern Ethiopians?

[Egyptian]

Yes he does kinda. Bet there are many Ethiopians with that look.

he doesn't look like him at all

[Egyptian]

Funny you post that pic. I found an Ethiopian that resembles him more.

I guess you are ethiopian guy or African trying to spread the propaganda of black Egypt : )... oh please look at the nose or chin , Ramses had natural red hair he didn't dye it.

depends, if you go back far enough (maybe 5,000 years ago or less)

they were probably like this (The Nubians) which both Ethiopians & Egyptians probably looked like





^^ but more advanced ^^ or maybe browned skinned or both

Modern Egyptians of course.

Nubians are like that

we were not Ethiopians and we never were Ethiopians , we had good relation with them but we never were.

trying to prove your point with paintings , i can bring paintings too



was the pharaoh a green guy from mars? what about the woman? the only black people were connected to egypt and ruled egypt were nubians.

I didn't say the Ancient Egyptians WERE Ethiopians but they GENETICALLY MORE SIMILAR to Ethiopians than to Modern Egyptians who are heavily mixed with people from Asia.

I don't think the paintings are the by all means all, but they should be taken into account to some degree. Why are most Egyptians dark skinned in the paintings?

Lol, no they weren't. The paintings clearly distinguish between Sub-Saharans (Nubians) and Egyptians. And those are definitely not Nubians.

They were closer to the Pashtun master race.

I'm not African. Those type of people (i.e. Dominacanese) try to claim Ancient Egyptians looked similar to Nigerians. I used to believe in the same theory as you, my views change frequently.

You cannot deny that there was a huge wave of migration from Asia to Africa when the Arabs started Islamicizing the place. There were also a lot of Christian Europeans that came before that. These definitely would have altered the genetic makeup. The paintings show they looked similar to Ethiopians. There is no other piece of work that talks about their skin color other than paintings. The fossils you have posted so far do not look distinctly Modern Egyptian.

The hair color is irrelevant. Look at the high cheekbones, chin, and cranial structure.

Why have these questions still not been answered? I keep hearing a lot of debate over what the ancient egyptians were and I thought the answer would have been easily accessible.

From my point of view, ancient egyptians were diverse. Some might have been South Europeans basically, othes were basically arab, and some more like Ethiopians and Nubians.
