Be cautious about all that DNA stuff. The Eurocentrics will lie and put out fake data as they please because very few people have time to check their stuff. Most suffer form Black Derangement Syndrome.

The best way to appraise the AEs racially is to simply [b] observe how they portrayed themselves and other ethno-racial groups on their murals.

But there's one paper that is consistent with the visually empirical data and the way the Ancient Greeks(Herodotus, Aristotle, etc.) saw them.

Eurocentrism is mainly sponsered by the Koch Brothers.

And a “famous” white suprematist (Richard Spencer) said they don’t play fair.

A wise black, even Alek Wek, is advised to apply SPF 15+
if in direct outdoor summer sunlight for any length of time.

Oh those wise Egyptians.

V above is Beyonce--assumedly. Beyonce is not "dark brown". He color is not dark brown but olive/light brown. Have no idea what the tanning speed is for that.

How about a better question. can you show us where a middle easterner (who was not trained by Europeans) claimed Egypt as middle eastern?
Im incline to agree with Oshun. Egypt being a middle eastern civilization is a European theory.

Modern Egyptians never claimed Egypt as their own until Europeans arrived there.

I didn't think to do that. Let me see if I still have the link in my history folder.

I suspected it was this clown. For giggles. Ask him what “sunscreen factor” he is using.

The video doesn't identify an Egyptian text that say the purpose of a skin ointment was to protect form the sun

you can try to find it

or here

secondly, even if you find an Egyptian text saying that an ointment was used for sunscreen there were some Asiatic foreigners in Egypt so if there was sunscreen it doesn't all the people needed to use it

That is why I posted this thread. The author of that video provided no evidence to their claim. I tend to agree with you. I don't think they used it. Plus even the people in that area of the world today do not use sunscreen or find need for it. So why would the historical people?

That is not the texture they gave Tut. I literally stood in front on his statues etc in Egypt. The image you’ve posted has high IOS-light, making the skintone lighter.

The most accurate complexion is is the following:

But it wouldn’t even change the narrative.
