It's possible. Some Pharaohs were Egyptian in blood, while others came from Greek bloodlines. Their decendants could still populate Egypt.

Yes, in the sense that Pharaohs were ancient Egyptians just like their subjects. It's true that Egypt was conquered by Alexander the Great and ruled after his death by his general Ptolemy, backed by a garrison of Macedonians. But the small number of Macedonians would have vanished like a drop in an ocean. Similarly Egypt became a Roman province, but there cannot have been enough Romans to flood the place. The city of Rome at the time of Augustus and Cleopatra VII was only 500,000 people, and they had to send people to a lot of other places around the Mediterranean. The Arabs invaded Egypt about 650 or so, but Arabia has always been sparsely populated, and they had to spare Arabians to conquer the Middle East, North Africa, and Spain (by 711) as well. So most of the people who live in Egypt today are related to and descended from ancient Egyptians, with a little admixture of a half-dozen other peoples.

definitely sure. even whilst the Greeks got here, the bloodline nevertheless persevered up until now. even however the Arabs and different races got here to Egypt. i think virtually all the Egyptians in Egypt are incredibly linked to the Pharaohs of Egypt. it incredibly is so cool!!! =3 Hahaha.. i think Egyptians may well be incredibly proud to nicely known that they are descendants from the amazing Pharaohs. To think of which you're walking on an identical sand and land that became as quickly as seen and walked on with the aid of the Pharaohs and the classic Egyptians... that would desire to easily be breath-taking!!!

Think of a pharoh as being like a king. They were the rulers of ancient Egypt. So sort of, they were all Egyptians, but Egyptians now are no more or less "related" to pharohs than the English people are "related" to the Queen Elizabeth.

Only the dark ones. http://www.freemaninstitute.com/Gallery/RTGpix1.htm
Plus we need to be reminded that Egypt is in Africa (not the Middle East) and that all of the Pharaohs (up to and including the 25th Dynasty) would have been required to "sit at the back of a bus" in the 1940s in Montgomery Alabama. Let's allow the pictures to speak for themselves...Ready?

Yes, they live in Egypt. That's probably the only thing in common by now.
