Hummus, as we know it today, is believed to have originated in the Levant region, particularly in areas that are part of modern-day Lebanon and Syria, rather than ancient Egypt. However, ancient Egyptians did consume chickpeas, which are a key ingredient in hummus, and they had various legume-based dishes. The specific combination of ingredients that define hummus likely developed later, around the 13th century in the Middle East. Therefore, while ancient Egyptians used chickpeas, they did not eat hummus in the form we recognize today.
