No, Egypt wasnt "always diverse" unless you mean different African tribes.
Pretty much meaningless when discussing ancient african history considering the sahara has expanded and the people that are called SSA once lived in what is now the sahara(some still do), also the saharan desert was not some impenetrable barrier like most people believe. Some egyptians were black but certainly not all.
NeggedThe real egyptian sure as hell arent negroid africans.
Ancient Egypt was a mix of races. that shyt was like a melting pot.

Kemet was almost entirely black african/sub saharan african up until the at least the 12th dynasty, in which came the 1st invasion of foreigners a mixed group called the hyksos. It remained mixed until the 18th dynasty when nubia with the maajai army took kemet back and made it nearly entirely sub saharan african again. It remained that way until the invasions of the persians, but that was after many attempts from foreigners to invade that kemet defended. And then kemet was fully taken with the ptolomies. But even with the ptolomies you talking greeks who were there for a few hundred years and many of them becoming mixed.
So "egypt was always diverse" is just false.
There are various hypotheses as to the Hyksos' ethnic identity. Most archaeologists[who?] describe the Hyksos as multi-ethnic, to include all of the peoples who occupied the Nile Delta.
The origin of the term "Hyksos" derives from the Egyptian expression hekau khaswet [HkAw xAswt] ("rulers [of] foreign lands"), used in Egyptian texts such as the Turin King List to describe the rulers of neighbouring lands. This expression begins to appear as early as the late Old Kingdom in Egypt, referring to various Nubian chieftains, and in the Middle Kingdom, referring to the Semitic chieftains of Syria and Canaan.
Yea, that's why I called them a mixed group.And even the Hyskos had a Black component.
They were dispelled after only 100 years by the African tribes on the Nile.

Did not know Hyksos had a black component. Makes sense though if even Asia minor was more- shall we say, breh-complected around this time.
The narrative I've usually read makes it sound like they were a bunch of looking west Asian invaders that beat Egypt because they had iron weapons.(Well, the iron part might be exaggerated).
Them shytty history channel specials and years of public school education fukked my perception up something good, brehs.
that ones gonna cost yaThe real egyptian sure as hell arent negroid africans.
No it was not..Europeans were not there and Arabs arrived much much later..it's like black culture today. We build the stuff then other races come flooding in to steal from us. It's been happening for many millennia.
Pretty sure Middle Easterners (Hebrews) were residents of ancient Egypt.
Breh West Asia was more multi racial than anywhere else in the world at that time.
You mean the original Jews. The black man..
