A recent genetic study links the maternal lineage of a traditional population from Upper Egypt to Eastern Africa [1]. A separate study further narrows the genetic lineage to North East Africa ([2]) and reveals also that modern day Egyptians "reflect a mixture of African,European,and Middle Eastern."
Champollion the Younger, who deciphered the Rosetta Stone, claimed in Expressions et Termes Particuliers ("Expression of Particular Terms") that Kmt did not actually refer to the soil but to a negroid population in the sense of "Black Nation." Modern day professional Egyptologists, linguists and historians, however, overwhelmingly agree that the term referred to the soil rather than the people. Herodotus wrote, "the Colchians are Egyptians... on the fact that they are black-skinned (melanchrôs) and wooly-haired (oulothrix)" (Histories Book 2:104). Later authors, including Aristotle and Diodorus Siculus, repeated Herodotus' description of "black-skinned". Melanchros is also used of the sunburnt complexion of Odysseus (Od. 16.176).
Although analyzing the hair of ancient Egyptian mummies from the Late Middle Kingdom has revealed evidence of a stable diet [3], mummies from circa 3200 BC show signs of severe anemia and hemolitic disorders [4].
A few teams of European scientists reported that cocaine, hashish and nicotine have been found in the skin and hair of Egyptian mummies [5]. The results of these studies have been harshly criticized (e.g., ref. [6]) by mainstream scientists and Egyptologists as flawed and inaccurate.
