The origins of Egyptian ethnicity lay in the areas south of Egypt. The ancient Egyptian language belonged to the Afrasian family (also called Afroasiatic or, formerly, Hamito-Semitic). The speakers of the earliest Afrasian languages, according to recent studies, were a set of people whose lands between 15,000 and 13,000 B.C. stretched from Nubia in the west to far northern Somalia in the east. They supported themselves by gathering wild grains. The first elements of Egyptian culture were laid down two thousand years later, between 12,000 and 10,000 B.C., when some of these Afrasian communities expanded northward into Egypt, bringing with them a language directly ancestral to ancient Egyptian. They also introduced to Egypt the idea of using wild grains as food.
A new religion came with them as well. Its central tenet explains the often localized origins of later Egyptian gods: the earliest Afrasians were, properly speaking, neither monotheistic nor polytheistic. Instead, each local community, comprising a clan or a group of related clans, had its own distinct deity and centered its religious observances on that deity.

I wonder if Alexander the great is a E3b, seeing as E3b is the largest haplogroup in Greece.
Dorians and southern ?? are you sure, usually when they mention this "dorian" they mean fair blond type that came from the North and civilized the swarthy southern Greeks.Alexanders family, the Argeads, were ancient dorian migrants from Argos. Meaning he originally came from the peloponnese/southern Greece.

No. The Dorian tribe mostly lived in the Peloponnese, the most famous being Spartans.
