The Amarna mummies are closer to the Southern African (average MLI 326.94), African Great Lakes (average MLI 323.76), and Tropical West African (average MLI 83.74) regions—not the Horners.
Many scholars have allowed Eurocentrist to spread the myth that the Somalians, Ethiopians and etc. represent the ancient Egyptians. This is a myth. The descendants of the Egyptians live in West Africa and Central-East Africa
It is a myth because it is clear from the research of Diop that after the fall of ancient Egypt the Egyptians migrated westward into West and Central-East Africa, not Ethiopia and Somalia which were already heavily occupied when Egypt fell into decline.
We also know that the Ethiopians are mainly associated with Punt. We find that around the time Egypt went into decline groups like the Nubians were coming from the east occupying the Sudan and Upper Egypt, while the Indo-European people who made up the backbone of todays Berber speaking people were beginning to occupy much of North Africa and the Delta. As a result, the only lands available for settlement when Egypt went into decline was West-Central-East Africa, not Ethiopia and the Horn.
The Eurocentrists chose the Ethiopians and Somalians as representatives of the Egyptians because these people had the fine features, usually associated with Europeans. But the history and anthropology make it clear the Ethiopians and Somlaians are not representatives of the ancient Egyptians who settled West Africa after Egypt went into decline.
Stop perpetuating the myth the Somalians-Ethiopains represent the ancient Egyptians.

Beginning with the Assyrian defeat of the Twenty-Fifth Dynasty large number of nomadic people from the Middle East began to migrate into Egypt. These people began to take over many Egyptian settlements, while other Egyptians fled to Nubia and Kush to avoid non-Egyptian rule.
Other ancient Egyptian caused political and military conflicts that led many Egyptians to migrate out of Egypt into Nubia and Kush.
Kush/Nubia are in Sudan in North/East Africa

DNATribes MLI scores (Match Liklihood) indicate common ancestry between Egyptians and modern groups it is not proof that people of the ancient Egyptian civilization migrated to these far off areas
Also because Arabs came into Egypt does not mean they forced masses to leave
