Wait a second! The Afrocentrists said that Egyptians were black! The color must have faded on this painting
That’s always been a half-truth used as a claim to fame by race pimps in this country. There was a short defined period when the Nubians (northern Sudan) conquered and ruled Egypt and there were some black pharaohs. This does not make all Egyptians black or even all of them of black descent. Since Nubia had previously been ruled by Egypt they had by that time and afterward adopted many Egyptian customs and beliefs but they were not Egyptians as such, any more than the Ptolemaic rulers of Egypt made the Egyptians Greeks.
Thanks! :’)
