I’d say the skin color is way too dark. Ancient Egyptians were lighter skinned than modern day ones.

“Both types of genomic material showed that ancient Egyptians shared little DNA with modern sub-Saharan Africans. Instead, their closest relatives were people living during the Neolithic and Bronze ages in an area known as the Levant. Strikingly, the mummies were more closely related to ancient Europeans and Anatolians than to modern Egyptians.” https://www.nature.com/articles/546017a

yeah farming started in anatolia. its well documented by genetics and artifacts that they came to europe about 7-8 thousand years ago.

no reason these farmers would not have also moved south. and formed the basis for the civilization in egypt.
