[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

***at no time did I see an Isreali bear the features commonly associated with blacks. Not even close. **

If you look at the treasures of Tutankahmen you will see the depiction of his enemies, the Asiatics and Nubians. They have facial features completely different from the Egyptians and each other. The Asiatics were definitly NOT black. Neither were the Egyptians.
As you travel south along the Nile you eventually begin to see some Nubian features in the Egyptians of Upper Egypt.
