Which, amusingly, is less Arab, and much more "Levantine"...
Arabs didn't exist as such. This is more than a semantic argument. Their whole conquest out of Arabia had yet to happen. Those kinds of conquests change demographics.
Thinking that ancient Egyptians would look like modern ones is a false assumption on its face. If it happens to be so then great. But people's appearance isn't that stable, particularly in the Middle East which has always been a crossroads.
