According to the studies carried out by both G. Lucott and G. Mercier using Y-chromosome haplotypes, a process which involved filtering Y-chromosome haplotypes of a large number of unrelated volunteers in Egypts Nile Valley by way of p49a,f TaqI polymorphism.

Their results showed that fifteen different p49a,f TaqI haplotypes are present in Egypt, the three most common being haplotype V, haplotype XI, and haplotype IV. Haplotype XI shows a preponderance in the south (in C - Nubia, 30.4%; B - Upper Egypt, 28.8%)

Haplotype XI is what the Institue of Anthroplogy refers to as E3b1, and originates among the East Africans - Borana, Somali, Oromo, e.t.c

Haplotype IV (E3A) was found to be almost absent in A (Delta 1.2%) and

preponderant in B (Upper Egypt 27.3%) and C (lower Nubia 39.1%)

Hence, the primary and common origins and relationships between ancient Egyptians and other Africans is evident.

Therefore, some of the modern day Egyptians are related to ancient Egyptians while most are not.

some claimed that ancient egyptians were black which is not true there too many paintings of Egyptian pharos facing some black nubian and other paintings showin Pharaoh ahmus in the body of lion and the head of human steping with his feet on a black conqured man from nubia which means they werent black they had the color of the egyptians now a days but not the same features due to the conditions of each time which means they are just the same as the ancients
