The first ever full-genome analysis of Ancient Egyptians shows they were more Turkish and European than African. Scientists analysed ancient DNA from Egyptian mummies dating from 1400 BC to 400 AD and discovered they shared genes with people from the Mediterranean. They found that ancient Egyptians were closely related to ancient populations in the Levant - now modern day Turkey, Syria, Jordan, Israel and Lebanon. They were also genetically similar to Neolithic populations from the Anatolian Peninsula and Europe. The groundbreaking study used recent advances in DNA sequencing techniques to undertake a closer examination of mummy genetics than ever before.

Reversing everything we were taughtNot if you read between the lines. The areas of Africa where advanced civilizations occurred were in Northern Africa. I don't think there's ever been any question that the people there were Mediterranean, not African. Even tales of Atlantis, the Phoenicians, and Moses journey support that.

Turks are Asian. They are late arrivals to the Middle East (about 1000 years ago).
Maybe an earlier wave settled in Egypt long, long ago, but this strikes me as very odd.

Since the [muslim] Turks conquered Anatolia millennia after these people lived in Egypt, they were in no way Turkish!!!! Just call them “ancient Anatolians” to be safe.

Because they have been LIED to, by other imbecilic black morons, who started that whole "THE EGYPTIANS WERE BLACK", ignoring written, ancient texts and history.
"Afrocentrist history" is and always has been, a pack of lies and easily disproved. That whole genre is a gigantic HOAX!

'However in the last 1,500 years Egypt became more genetically African, whereas the ancient Egyptians showed almost no sub-Saharan African ancestry and high affinity to ancient Near Eastern and European populations.' It looks more and more that the "Ancient Egyptians" were early agriculturalists who migrated to the fertile Nile valley from the Middle East.

Well the Celts were said to have originated or at least once been natives of Galatia in Turkey.
We do know that Ramses the Great had red wavy hair.

From what I understand the Celts originated in Central Europe then spread from their core area. A group of Celts penetrated into Anatolia from Thrace and the area they settled in became Galatia.

Anyone who has studied the Minoan civilization knows that the Ancient Greeks had ties with Egypt. Civilization came thru the Mediterrean sea, not from Africa northward.

And last week we heard that humans came from Europe, not Africa.
A lot of cherished paradigms are being rattled.
