The aspect of the Nubians is actually fascinating, complicated, and largely just mysterious and unknown. They've been generally their own separate country, but possibly the original culture came from the south and of course there was a Nubian dynasty in (northern) Egypt.
Also there have been some extensive and radical population changes (not unlike in the north).
Yes, well said. While the "omgwtfbbq Ancient Egypt was a negro country!" etc is nonsense, there were blacks in Ancient Egypt and there were black pharaohs and dynasties.
There is basically no "average" Egyptian, but many genetically speaking today, many Egyptians are:
Mostly "old Egyptian" populatio lineage
Large amounts of Arab from Arabian peninsula
Large amounts of Greek/etc/"Mediterranean"
Variable amounts of black African (this influence is generally thought to have increased over the last several thousand years)
Bits of general European/Indo-European
Bits of Turkish, Persian, etc
It's also always funny to me that "Upper Egypt" is southern Egypt and "Lower Egypt" is the north.
It's because the entire country is completely focused on, dependent upon, and developed around the Nile. The Nile flows from south to north, so the upper part of the Nile is the south, and the lower reaches of the Nile are in the north.
That said, almost none of the blacks in America have roots in the region. They're just literally culturally appropriating Egypt, like some others do with Israel which is even more wild.
Or this crazy cult the Five-Percent Nation, where "ALLAH" is an English acronym standing for some total nonsense.
Same as how Upper and Lower Canada came to be in its founding era, based on the Laurentien river, or however it's spelled it's been years since I needed to know any world history.
The original culture (scorpion king) came from the west. It's believed they may have come from a desert oasis culture as the great lakes of the Sahara dried up.
Dey waz kangz.
