What controversy? King Tutankhamun was North African, and while not "black" per se, he as he was depicted in the art of his time dark skinned (although there are arguements as to how dark skinned) to say the least... all it takes is a little research into the past - or even a look at the record in Egyptian art from the period...

Some reconstructions:

British reconstruction

French reconstruction

Bust from his tomb
