David Rohl’s books are excellent, and pretty well researched.
I doubt that these findings came as a surprise to anyone except those indoctrinated by Afro-Centrist pseudo-scholarship (i.e. Black radicals and their Leftist allies who make the nonsensical claim that ancient Egyptians were "black"). Even without DNA analysis, it's long been clear from the facial features of mummies (and Egyptian self-depiction in statues, masks, and paintings) that Ancient Egyptians were of Mediterranean/Near Eastern descent and not descended from Sub-Saharan Africans.
Don’t bet against the Bible. You’ll lose every time.
Ancient Egyptians are those that lived in the Old Kingdom prior to 2,181 BCE or even a thousand years before that (around 3,500 BCE). The mummies studied were from a period almost 1,000 years later - 1388 BCE to 426 CE. This is the New kingdom period. Bogus conclusions.
