Why do we attribute ancient Egypt to modern Egyptians when modern Egyptians do not even have any genetic connection to dynastic Egypt?

Half of Europeans share genetic markers with dynastic Egyptians. Present day Egyptians share none. They’re just arab wanderers that stumbled upon the magnificent world and claimed it as their own.

    >Half of Europeans share genetic markers with dynastic Egyptians. They do not. Egypt has been invaded like 12 times in the last few thousand years so there's a wide mix and variety.

    Very simple - analysis of DNA samples taken from Egyptian mummies shows a strong connection. Your claim of no connection is total bollocks!

    I'm guessing this anonymous claim is rubbish, but I'm willing to change my mind if you post links to some bona fide science sites supporting it. . .

    "They" don't.

    They actually do. Why should I listen to some random internet person though?
