There are some who will continue to believe in the Out of Africa theory, no matter what - just like they still believe Cleopatra was black. So silly. Well, there were many Nubian queens of Egypt, such as Nefertari, as the Nubians invaded Egypt and ruled for many years. However, Cleopatra was of Greek blood.

There were many Nefertaris. The most famous one, Nefertari Mery Mut, Great Wife of Rameses II, was not Nubian by descent. She was the daughter of Bakenkhonsu, a royal official of the Theban court with ancestors in attendance for many generations. Ahmes Nefertari, daughter of Seqenenre of the 17th dynasty, became the wife of Ahmose I, founder of the 18th dynasty. She is thought to be the great-grandmother of Nefertari Mery Mut. There is no evidence that they descended from any Nubian line.
