Pharaohs were redheads? I've never seen that claim before.

I agree that this is unimportant, but a couple people are insisting Jesus was white. I think it's at least as silly as the sign in the OP. The basis being given doesn't check out.

Red hair found in mummies is no indication of hair color when alive. It's a natural process of decay.

DNA studies show the ancestry; if there are natural redheads in key regions of Africa today, then the claim of redheaded Pharaohs is plausible.

It's not.

Recents studies have debunked the embalming myth. Embalming did not change hair color. There are fair skinned / red haired people in the region. Don’t be racist .

Not the issue. Nobody claims embalming turned hair red, it's a natural process of decay.

Prevailing theory remains that red hair came about as people crossed the Caucasus mountains. (Also farther east, but at a similar latitude) There is no evidence that any people groups returned to the cradle of civilization after moving there.

Red haired people that live in the region now migrated there A.D.
