This theory has been batted around for awhile, along with the theory small pox may have originated in Egypt also.
DNA evidence of Yersina pestis has been found in the teeth of some of the Middle Age's Black Death victims. It will be interesting (if it's possible????) to see if plague DNA shows up in any Egyptian remains.
