There has been a massive attempt to overthrow the Egyptian civilization to give credence to the sham attempt that Egyptians were Negroid. However, every instanc of evidence states this is simply not true. In fact, the mummy of the wife of King Tutankhamen has auburn hair. (61) A mummy with red hair, red mustache and red beard was found by the pyramids at Saqqara. (62) Red-haired mummies were found in the crocodile-caverns of Aboufaida. (63) The book HISTORY OF EGYPTIAN MUMMIES mentions a mummy with reddish-brown hair. (64) the mummies of Rameses II (65) and Prince Yuaa (66) have fine silky yellow hair. The mummy of another pharaoh, Thothmes II, has light chestnut-colored hair. (67). This hardly describes a Negroid individual.
The Egyptians have left us many paintings and statues of blondes and redheads. Amenhotep III's tomb painting shows him as having light red hair. (73) Also, his features are quite European. A farm scene from around 2000 B.C. in the tomb of the nobleman Meketre shows redheads. (74) An Egyptian scribe named Kay at Sakkarah around 2500 B.C. has blue eyes. (75) Here is a picture of him: http://www.delphi.com/redramesses/messages/?msg=21.1
The tomb of Menna (18th Dynasty) at West Thebes shows blond girls. (76) The god Horus is usually depicted as white. He is very white in the Papyrus Book of the Dead of Lady Cheritwebeshet (21st Dynasty), found in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. (77)
A very striking painting of a yellow-haired man hunting from a chariot can be found in the tomb of Userhet, Royal Scribe of Amenophis II. (78) The yellow- haired man is Userhet. The same tomb has paintings of blond soldiers. The tomb of Menna also has a wall painting showing a blond man supervising two dark- haired workers scooping grain. (79)
The Funerary stele (inscribed stone slab) of Priest Remi clearly shows him as having red hair, (80) although he couldn't have been a priest of Set at such a late date. A common good luck charm was the eye of Horus, the so-called Wedjat Eye. (81) The eye is always blue, and the word "wedjat" means "green" (or blue?) in Egyptian. A very attractive painting is found on the wall of a private tomb in West Thebes from the 18th Dynasty. The two deceased parents are white people with black hair. Mourning them are two pretty fair-skinned girls with light blond hair and their red-haired older brother. (82)
Queen Thi is painted as having a rosy complexion, blue eyes and blond hair. (83) She was co-ruler with her husband Amenhotep III and it has been said of their rule. "The reign of Amenhotep III was the culminating point in Egyptian history, for never again, in spite of the exalted effort of the Ramessides, did Egypt occupy so exalted a place among the nations of the world as she had in his time." (84) Amenhotep III looks northern European in his statues.
Paintings of people with red hair and blue eyes were found at the tomb of Bagt in Beni Hassan. (85) Many other tombs at Beni Hassan have paintings of individuals with blond and red hair as well as blue eyes. (86) Paintings of blonds and redheads have been found among the tombs at Thebes. (87) Blond hair and blue eyes were painted at the tomb of Pharaoh Menphtah in the valley of the Kings. (88) Paintings from the Third Dynasty show native Egyptians with red hair and blue eyes. (89) They are shepherds, workers and bricklayers.
A blond woman was painted at the tomb of Djeser-ka-ra-seneb in Thebes. (90) A model of a ship from about 2500 B.C. is manned by five blond sailors. (91) The god Nuit was painted as white and blond. (92) A painting at the tomb of Meresankh III at Giza, from about 2485 B.C., shows white skin and red hair. (93) Two statues from about 2570 B.C., found in the tombs at Medum, show Prince Rahotep and his wife Nofret. He has light green stones for eyes. She has violet- blue stones. (94) A painting from Iteti's tomb at Saqqara shows a very Nordic- looking man with blond hair. (95) Grafton Smith mentions the distinctly red hair of the 18th Dynasty mummy Henutmehet. (96)
Harvard Professor Carleton Coon, in his book THE RACES OF EUROPE, tells us that "many of the officials, courtiers, and priests, representing the upper class of Egyptian society but not the royalty, looked strikingly like modern Europeans, especially long-headed ones." (Note: Nordics are long-headed.) (97) Long-headed Europeans are most common in Britain, Scandinavia, the Netherlands, and northern Germany.
A recent discovery of Egyptian mummies from the Roman period astonished researchers. One-third ot the mummies were fair-haired! Why do most news reports from Zawi Hawass fail to mention this important fact? Here is the information: http://www.delphi.com/nordichistory/messages/?msg=512.4

The very first pharaoh, Narmer, also known as Menes, looks very European. The same can be said for Khufu's cousin Hemon, who designed the Great Pyramid of Giza, with help from Imhotep. A computer-generated reconstruction of the face of the Sphinx shows a European-looking face. (98) It was once painted sunburned red. (99) The Egyptians often painted upper class men as red and upper class women as white; this is because the men became sun-burned or tanned while outside under the burning Egyptian sun. The women, however, usually stayed inside.
These are the footnotes to the article WERE THE PHARAOHS BLOND? I recommend that you study the footnotes first, and then study the article at http://community.webtv.net/Xoxana/WereThePharaohs
The footnotes give you a small idea of the huge amount of research and documentation that have gone into writing this article. Sources in a dozen languages and stretching from 1834 to 2000 have been researched. Sources from conservatives, liberals, Romans, Greeks, ancient Egyptians, Communists, racists, Egyptians, Japanese, unconventionals, religious, Italians, Germans, Nazis, Black nationalists, French, British, Americans, anthropologists, art historians, archaeologists, Poles, Russians, Jews and Arab writers have been studied; and others too numerous to enumerate. Scholarly journals, books, and art books have been studied. We hope to eventually post pictures of blond Egyptians, but for now we will have to be content with giving the reference where these pictures can be found.

A book called CHRONICLE OF THE PHARAOHS was recently published showing paintings, sculptures and mummies of 189 pharaohs and leading personalities of Ancient Egypt. Of these, 102 appear European, 13 look Black, and the rest are hard to classify. All nine mummies look European.
