i’m starting to believe that the Zer0 truly is Nyarlathotep...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nyarlathotep

he is described as a “tall, swarthy man” who resembles an Egyptian pharaoh who wanders the earth, seemingly gathering legions of followers through his demonstrations of strange and seemingly magical instruments, the narrator of the story among them. These followers lose awareness of the world around them, and through the narrator’s increasingly unreliable accounts the reader gets a sense of the world’s utter collapse. The story ends with the narrator as part of an army of servants for Nyarlathotep.

Black here means Nubian...usually they only traded or warred with Egypt, but at one point when Egypt was in Chaos, the Nubian leader took the place over.

Check out Bob Brier's lectures on it.

25th dynasty, Egyptians were about as Egyptian as the Maltese are Maltese, or the Sicilians Italian. Even in the 18th, the great royal wife of Amenhotep III was distinctly negroid, and a commoner too, which suggests that Egypt readily absorbed other ethnic types even in the nobility. Well before that, the Hyksos arrived and mingled, and they are thought to have been a semitic people.
