how do we know if the mummies discovered in Egypt are actually ancient Egyptian
all of the tombs were broken in and ravaged
it was a long tradition for Europeans and Arabs to eat mummies how do we know that the latter people did not eat them all?

The best way to know what the Ancient Egyptians looked like is to observe their and their sculptures. Plus note how they were described by visitors to Egypt--as in the case of Herodotus. Aristotle also had his eye witness descriptions of the Ancient Egyptians.

Omission above: "...to observe their murals and their sculptures.
Mummies can be fakes--not so the murals and sculptures. The murals also have the "authenticity advantage" of depicting the Egyptians in groups. This gives a better average depiction of the generic Ancient Egyptian.
