Ancient Egyptians were part of the Mediterranean race. They became more African over time, especially when the Arabs conquered Egypt and started importing African slaves.

Contrary to what the Afrocentrists believe, the Ancient Egyptians were less racially African than modern-day Egyptians. Studies comparing Coptic Egyptians (religious isolate unchanged since roman times) vs Muslim Arab Egyptians show this as well.

Even then both these groups no longer exist. :kobeok:Even the Copts have a genetic contribution from ancient East African/Nilo-Saharan in them, the consequence of interaction with them thousands of years ago.

That's bullshit.

Caucasoid, Negroid, Capoid (Khoi), Mongoloid, Australoid.
Those are the 5 races of humans, each has sub-races and there exists mixtures between those 5.

Caucasoid is subdivided into Nordic, Mediterranean, West Asian.
This guy is dumb. Those sub-races are a result of inter-breeding LOL.

Caucasoid, Negroid (Africoid used interchangeably), Capoid (Khoi), Mongoloid, Australoid.

Caucasoid is subdivided into Nordic (blonde Euros), Mediterranean (swarthy South Euros and North Africans), West Asian (Georgians, Iranians etc).

I made a correction to your post with regard to names. Using these 'classifications' as a form of genetic stratification has antecedents in the racist pseudoscience known as phrenology. If I didn't have a good grasp of the English language I would think that -suffix -oid sounded like a pathology of some sort. I would change that. I do understand that a biological basis for races exists in terms of the genetic frequency of certain alleles, however, I prefer terms such as... African (with various sub-types in reference to a specific nomenclature), East Eurasian, West Eurasian etc.
