Strictly speaking, a Caucasoid is someone whose ancestry comes from the stock of the Caucasus Mountains, typically the Indo-Europeans. These peoples include the Persians, Germans, Norse, Celts, etc. The Egyptians are Semitic, that is to say that they have Mediterranean coloration and are therefore not Caucasoids. See more below.
As concerns the predominant race in Egypt today, most Egyptians today have Mediterranean coloration. This coloration varies, but includes colors that might be mis-identified with a Southern German at their lightest and may be mis-indentified with Pakistani at their darkest. Nationalities with similar complexions include most Arabs, Southern Italians, Southern Spaniards, Turks, and other North Africans. Most of these groups are characterized as "White" by the United States Census Bureau, regardless of how others may see them.
It depends on who's asking.
According to the US Census Bureau, the term Caucasian applies to those people whose ancestry comes from Europe, North Africa, or the Middle East. So, by this logic, Egyptians are considered Caucasians.
