Default The Black Headed Ones

The Sumerians referred to themselves as such. Does anyone know why? Were they Africans? They had a non-Semitic language and were not Semites. Who were they and where did they come from?
And don’t claim they came from outer space either, I already heard that one.
Conversely, while we are on the subject, why did the Egyptians refer to themselves as ‘The black footed ones”?
