And I see that you left out my use of the words "culturally" and "politically." I obviously left open the likelihood that the 18th dynasty was of mixed ancestry. Just because George Bush's family is ethnically of British origin doesn't mean George Bush isn't 100% American. Yes Thebes is close to Nubia and yes, it was difficult to say where Egyptians ended and Nubians began because physically they held affinities with each other. But knowing how Egyptians felt politically about the Nubians at the time, they might be offended to hear someone say their ruiling family was of Nubian origin. So without taking into account ethnic affinities we can positively say that the 18th dynasty was 100% Egyptian culturally and politically. If I were to say a dynasty was of Nubian origin I would say the 25th since the kings did come from Napata and returned there when the dynasty ended...
