Did anyone 3,000 years ago in Isreal (or around it) have blonde hair?

Question

I'm writing a fanfic and I want to know. In Isreal, Egypt, in that general area, were their any blonde haired blue eyed people? Think bible times, like 3,000 years ago.

Answer 1

Perhaps some Roman soldiers in the garrison at Judea, two thousand years ago, whose place of origin on the Italian peninsula was in what is now the northern states of Italy (Tuscany, Lombardy, etc.). Semitic people are not fair haired with blue eyes.

Answer 2

come on, 3,000 years ago,
the Greek Alexander the Great had already conquered that entire continent, and he is said to have blond hair,

they had Roman soldiers, men from Germania, Gaul,
though you would be hard set to find penguins,
you know.

Answer 3

Yes.
