The notion that Solomon could have been black seems to have arisen from a misunderstanding of the Song of Solomon, also known as the Song of Songs, a poem that tells the sexual experiences and thoughts of a black woman,. Although Song of Songs is attributed to Solomon, the language and style indicate that it was written after the end of the Babylonian Exile. Rabbi Akiva insisted on its inclusion in the Hebrew Bible, holding that it was the holiest of all the scriptures, but forbade its singing in beerhalls. It has been suggested that the Song of Solomon was originally the libretto of a small Opera of the day.
While there is nothing known about Solomon from extra-biblical evidence, the Old Testament does make it clear that Solomon is considered to have been Semitic. On that basis, he would have had brown skin.

The biblical figure King Solomon is traditionally depicted as a Middle Eastern man, given that he lived in ancient Israel. There are no definitive historical or archaeological records to confirm his race, as concepts of race in the modern sense did not exist in ancient times. Artistic representations of Solomon vary widely across cultures, reflecting different interpretations and influences rather than historical accuracy. Ultimately, Solomon's ethnicity is less significant than his role and legacy in religious texts.

In your bible if you turn to song of Solomon 1:5... she says " A black girl i am..... this book of Solomon talks about an unswerving love of a Shulammite maiden for a sheperd boy in spite of king Solomon's attempts to win her for himself. Solomon talks about how beautiful she was, a companion etc. This is the proof scripture that she was a beautiful black woman.
