To be perfectly frank, I won't believe such a discovery until 1), the discoverer has announced their identity and 2), that this alien is confimed not to be terrestrial by external sources.
Another thing to keep in mind is that the Egyptian royal family kept their bloodline pure by inbreeding (marriage between sister and brother was not uncommon), and many genetical defects from inbreeding has been known. It could feasibly be a royal child, or an unusually short individual with other deformities.
Simple way would be to run some kind of DNA analysis. That would show whether it's human or not.
