Cleopatra - “and nothing is known about her maternal ancestry”
________________

Another wrong! There is a lot known about her maternal ancestry:
Ptolemy dynasty followed Egyptian customs and married within the family, often their sisters! Or at best the other Macedonians.
Exception - One ancestor was Persian princes.
Cleopatra has no Egyptian ancestry and definitely not any Black one.

As far as king Tut, he was al least Egyptian.
But Egyptian are and never been black.
The only time there were black pharaohs in Egypt was the Kushite 25th dynasty (ruling long after king Tut) Piye, Shabaka, Shebitku, Taharqa (known as Tirhaqa in the bible) and Tantamani.
It is actually kind of sad. The Black Americans has so few real heroes, they have to invented some more.
