Good Evening
Are you Expecting see to 2m + mummies when you visit Egypt , do you really think that ancient Egyptians were really tall people ?!
Do you think that they were living half naked in ancient Egypt ?!
Okay let me tell you
Ancient Egyptians are mostly North African to Mediterranean people with average hight
And directly blood related to Arabs or Jewish , so our features are far different from them .
Today and after 2300 years of of last native Egypt Pharaoh what happened or changed in Egypt are we same grandsons of ancient Egyptians ?!
The answer is definitely yes . The migration, occupation, and the last hundreds years are merged with native inhabitants of Nile valley , and maximum change could be around 20% mostly for east and west northern parts of Egypt . So yes some cities in Egypt today has the European features or the the Arabic , but moving to south it’s much more native faces , that happened naturally , south of Egypt is isolated because surrounding desert east and west , mostly capitals of Egypt and main cities are located in the north with chances of work , trading and even occupation targets the main northern cities first
So the inhabitants of north merged much more with foreigners than the south
So that’s the explanation for some changes that you are seeing today in the Egyptian faces .
But still do you think ancient Egyptians were tall people , the answer is no visiting National Museum of Egyptian Civilization will give you clear answers , they were average same as me today 177 , it’s almost same hight of The Mighty Pharaoh Ramses II .
Tutankhamen who died as full grownup teenager was only 167 and his strong wide chest grandfather Amenhotep II was less than 170
My arrows can get through copper targets , Amenhotep II said , you can imagine that the brave Egyptian pharaoh with perfect muscled body was 170 cm only
So actually why they have made huge statues for themselves . As the most important respectful Pharaohs
