Look up the Kingdom of Meroë and you will notice a number of Egyptian peoples residing further south along the Nile River were indeed more reminiscent of Sub-Saharan Africans than Arabs.

The Kingdom of Kush conquered Egypt for a time. They weren't Egyptians any more than Spaniards became Aztecs when taking over in South America.
