Ancient Egyptian people were probably a mixture of races, because people were coming from south (north Sudan) up to the delta, in the mediterranean coast. This means that phisical characteristics were different.
Speaking about the language, we generally consider Middle Egyptian, and I wish to underline that the study of coptic language was of great importance to Champoillon in his wonderful job of studying and interpreting the ancient egyptian language. 
Nice pix!  |

Ancient Egyptians were all one race, and if they were mixed then it would be more likely that they were mixed with other africans and definitely not Europeans. It was much later on that the Europeans and arabs were starting to heavily intermix with the ancient Egyptians. But what most people fail to see is that Africans come with differnt physical features, and no they aren't mixed with other races. The Eritrean, Ethiopians, Somalis and Fulani all have different physical features than say the west african or bantu africans.
Besides are you aware of the fact that the Egyptians called themselves black and thier Asiatic and white Libyan enemies red? |

Why definatly no Europeans? There would have been some contact with sailors from early times and many of the Sea Peoples seem to have been European.
You say they were 1 race - this does not prevent them being from various
ethnic backgrounds - I think Ahmose son of Ibana who fought the Hyksos was of Asiatic origin - I am English but I am sure my ancestors came from different parts of Europe. |

I never mention "europeans" as part os egyptian races, if there would ever be one. Plus, we are talking about a wide period of time, covering surely more than 4000 years, how can you be so sure that you are talking about one lonely race?
why are you interested in egyptian races? what would you like to prove?  |

And you suppose that would make the Ancient Egyptians mixed, just because of some sailors? I would say that the ancient Egyptians that ruled Egypt were one group of people, with one language and one ethnicity. English is Europe, if one European marries another European it is insignificant.  |

You said they were mixed, I will assume that you are talking about intermarriage between two races, and by far most Egyptians are portrayed as being of white race in Hollywood movies. It doesn’t matter who many years it covers, I have seen the full-blooded Egyptians, my grandmother is one and by far she doesn’t like Egyptians be referred to as Arabs or mixed race. Today there still are Egyptians that are the descendents of the ancient Egyptian. What do I want to prove, the ancient Egyptians were mixed. |

PLEASE, GUYS!!!!!
Drop the race card. It's a subject that is a strict no-no here.
Everyone is entitled to their own views, but they should not be imposed on others. |
