The Nubians were the people living just south of Egypt.They were also known as Kushites.
Fact is that there was quite a bit of intermingling between Egypt and Nubia throughout history.
And if you have ever seen a picture of Tut’s mom,Queen Tiy,there is not much doubt to me that she is quite”Negroid”in features.
Its absurd to say Egypt was completely white,black or Arab.They were as mixed ethnically as you can possibly get.

The parentage of Tiye has been determined by recent scholarship (2006) to be Egyptian, not Nubian.

Another myth exploded.
