In his 1881 book, a ''History of Ancient Egypt'', George Rawlinson wrote that in form the Egyptian most resembled the [[Arabs|modern Arab]].<ref name=":8">{{Cite book |last=Rawlinson |first=George |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=2-8F_DCr15MC |title=History of Ancient Egypt |date=1881 |publisher=Longmans, Green, and Company |pages=99–100 |language=en}}</ref> They were amongst the darkest of races that the [[Ancient Greece|Greeks]] came into contact with, but considered [[Herodotus]] to have made extreme exaggerations. Based on his viewing of monuments, he asserted the real complexion of the ordinary Egyptian man was brown-with a tinge of red, which he observed was not very different from the [[Copts]].<ref name=":8" /> In another publication entitled ''Ancient Egypt'' released in 1887, Rawlinson would state the Egyptian people were of a "mixed-race", derived by movements of Ethiopians from the south, Libyans from the west, and Semitic peoples coming from the north-east of the continent.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Rawlinson |first=George |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=DVzUAAAAMAAJ&source=gbs_book_similarbooks&redir_esc=y |title=Ancient Egypt |last2=Gilman |first2=Arthur |date=1887 |publisher=T.
