    Yes more the Egyptians were lighter, they used Nubian soldiers (black Caucasians) who even put a one Pharaoh in power, then Egyptians regained power.
    SSA-Bantu have never been to ancient Egypt.

    Yeah, the whole music video looks strange with Michael Jackson choosing west African looking people being chosen to play ancient Egyptians in his music video based on ancient Egypt.




    (It's like MJ's close friend Elizabeth Taylor playing Cleopatra in another movie - that wasn't realistic either.)

    However I think the late David Bowie's Somali wife Iman looks similar to this bust of the ancient Egyptian Queen Nefertiti.

    There used to be a Somali poster in Canada on TA called 'Wadaad' who had chiseled features and a very Somali appearance. They have a distinct look from other African nations.

    Somalis are East African People, and they don't look like Sub Saharan West Africans. A slimmer build that does well for track and field races. Somalis seem to have a darker complexion than do Ethiopians, Egyptians and Sudanese -- seems so.

    Somali people: https://www.google.com/search?q=soma...ih=651#imgrc=_

    I think they look closest to Ethiopians.

    Ethiopians (some) look the most distinct in terms of people from sub-Saharan African descent, but Somalis would be next after that (I think they score about 15-20% Arab on gedmatch type tests on average, but often look more so IMO).
