If you consider people who looked like this white then yes. Otherwise, no.

Probably more like Zidane. You're probably Somali yourself so you should know that the Somali phenotype is recessive.

Neither white nor black. They were probably brown semitics like modern day North Africans.

ancient Egyptians was looks similar to Coptics

They most likely weren't dissimiliar from Berbers, so not black, but not quite white either. Due to Egyptian civilization not being connected to the near-east civilizations (Egypt rised on its own, not as a colony of Mesopotamians), it would be incorrect to call them Arab. Nubians were black, late Egyptian nobility was white due to Greek admixture. The mummy of Ramssess II has red hair, and the population that has the highest occurence of red hair outside of Europeans are Riffians, who have significant Berber admixture.

Well I can't think of any other reason why someone would claim ancient Egyptians were anything like Somalis. Nubians may have been though.

>>52985387
This is rather accurate, if only because Coptic is a Greek-influenced modern variant of Ancient Egyptian.

Their facial features throughout Egyptian history looks like the people of Ethiopia and Somalia.

OP's image is a fucking lie. Nine of those statues or mummies gad blue eyes but it keeps being posted here and on /pol/
