Undeniable proof that the ancient Egyptians were BLACK. This should be taught in schools. Why are they covering up the real facts??
Its amazing how much history is being covered up.
Skeletons and genetic analysis show that the ones near the Delta are typical Mediterranean types and the ones near Sudan are typical Sudanese. In the areas between, the population was mixed.

(and there really are differences in the "Caucasian" skulls and "Black" skulls (slight, but easy to spot once you know what they are. Eye socket shape, for one thing.))

Because it's wrong.

The genetic history of the demographics of Egypt reflects Egypt's geographical location at the crossroads of several major cultural areas: Northeast Africa, Northwest Africa, the Sahara, Sub-Saharan Africa, the Middle East, and the Mediterranean.
In general, various DNA studies have found that the gene frequencies of modern Egyptian populations are intermediate between those of the Middle East, the Horn of Africa, southern Europe and Sub-Saharan Africa,[1] though NRY frequency distributions of the modern Egyptian population appear to be substantially more similar to those of the Middle East than to any Sub-Saharan African or European population, suggesting a substantially larger Middle Eastern genetic component.[2][3][3][4][5][6][7]

Which time frame did the skull come from? The Old Kingdom period built the pyramids. The middle kingdom saw plenty of invasions from southwest Asia (ME), and finally the Greeks conquered in the 3rd cent. BC. By the Roman times Egypt was a melting pot.

It appears that no one actually agrees, other than the fact that many conquering nations interbred with whoever the indigenous people were. Ancient Egypt race Controversy
There is a plethora of information in that article, that seems to point to an answer more along the lines of "Well,yes and no."
There have been a multitude of x rays genetic tests with different or inconclusive results. One pharoah had red hair and fair skin. Others were quite dark and described in detail by the ancient greeks as negroid with 'wooly' hair.

More irrefutable proof that the ancient Egyptians were Black.
This truth is being denied and covered up by racists.
