Unraveling the Physical Appearance of Ancient Egyptians: An Enigma of Diverse Perspectives. #egypt

Ancient Egypt has been extensively studied for its art, literature, and customs, including worshipping gods, burial practices, and language decoding.
However, the physical appearance of the ancient Egyptians remains unknown.
Many believe they looked like Middle Eastern people, but this only made sense during the Persian conquest.
When information about Egypt began to circulate in the 1800s, white people adopted a racist stance, claiming only European Aryans could construct the pyramids.
Others conjectured that the Egyptians were black due to their African origins.
Egyptian paintings were highly stylized, depicting men with reddish skin tones and women with yellowish tones.
Greek texts describe the Egyptians as "dark-skinned" and "curly-haired," which is the closest description to North African civilization.
