Maybe you are already aware of this news but I am hearing it for the first time. Is this possible, Why did ancient Egyptian portrayals always seem/look more African than European? is humanity older than we are taught?

Hatshepsut is reported as having stawberry blond hair.
Then, in the Third Intermediate Period, there was the Nubian Dynasty (25th) who considered themselves more Egyptian than the Egyptians.

Interesting, I thought the Nubian's were of African decent also though?

Modern understandings of race have become somewhat limited....it seems our ancient cousins had more tolerance for each other, more acceptance and understanding. If Egyptians have European blood then it may be because the Egyptian kings were taking European woman as their brides? which happened in the Ottoman era also, but I cant say I know anything its all speculation.
