The glamorous face of Queen Nefertiti, who could have been the mother of King Tutankhamun, has been brought to life using the latest 3D imaging technology.

It took 500 hours to recreate the bust and the jewellery was even handcrafted by designers from Dior.

You’re quite welcome; years ago a Coptic Egyptian acquaintance made it clear the Coptics regard the Arabs as invaders - completely foreign to Egypt of old.

There are tomb murals which show quite a variety of skin color, from a few pale pink to deep black, but most figures look like they have the deep copper skin color of a typical modern Egyptian farmer or fisherman.

If ancient Egyptians were blacks,then the race-baiting blacks who demand reparations from white Americans for slavery shouldn’t be surprised if Jews demand reparations from them for Egyptian slavery.

American blacks mostly came from West Africa... pretty far walk from Egypt.

Yes, that is where most African slaves began their voyage, not around the Horn of Africa nor from Gibraltar.

Those aren’t yokes, I think those are ebony logs. Ebony was a valuable commodity for trade or tribute like gold, salt, and ivory.

The Egyptians were Mediterranean peoples, not black. Egypt was invaded by the Nubians who were black and who ruled Egypt for about 200 years, a very short slice of Egyptian history.

Ignorance is no excuse for this nitwit.

Ancient Egyptians were black, had wings, and could fly.
