How can you bring up Egypt. Homer says Ethiopia. He was a prince, not a Pharoah. Homer knew about Egypt and Pharaoh's but he described a Ethiopian built like a massive hero. Even the Bible speaks of a powerful Ethiopian army.

Ethiopia was just where black people resided. Sudan was part of Ethiopia, Ethiopia was part of Ethiopia, everything below the Sahara was Ethiopia. Nubians are gone now so modern Sudan has nothing to do with it, Nubians are now a minority in Egypt and absent in Sudan. Also, Ethiopia to the Greeks was south of Nubia/Sudan so it was probably referring D’mt, the Ethiopians and the portrayal of Ethiopians were Caucasian but black skinned while Sudanese people have Bantu/Nilote features

Memnon was the son of Tithonus a prince of Troy brother to Priam King of Troy and Eos a Titaness in the Hellenic Pantheon. Two Mediterranean olived skin parents don't make a black African baby. Who treveled to Aethiopia The Land of the burnt face men Aethiopia was not a country back then Aethiopia was referring to the people living South of Egypt.

Memnon was a Trojen hero of Hellenic heritage (Not Black) ruled over Ethiopia. Troy was just another Hellenic City State. Like Mecedonia , Attica , Lacoinia , Ethiopia and so much more .Son of Tithonus and Eos. Nephew of Priam. How the heck is he black??

Memnon Son of Tithonus a prince of Troy brother to King Priam King of Troy and Eos a Titaness in the Hellenic Pantheon. He was Trojan Hellenic. Homer the writer dose this inorder to relate and connect Memnon with Troy and give him a reason to add Troy. Priam sends a message to Memnon his nephew to help and protect the land of his Father , Tithonus. Troy In the Iliad is just another Hellenic City State , like Sparta , Mycenae and more. Of course not everything is Hellenic but Memnon was not African. Africa is rich in it's own history and mythology has it's own God's , heroes and story's. Dose not have to claim this one.
