Fallow

Fallow that didn't palmate?

Fallow - poor genetics or living in scrubby bush with little open grazing.

Common configuration in New Zealand with velvet damage in the scrub.

This looks like what you posted in American Hunting. So, is it American or Asian?

OK, here's the interesting thing. The skull was found in Egypt's eastern desert so it is EXTREMELY unlikely that the animal is a native. Although Egypt historically had Persian Fallow, it seems much MUCH more likely that this creature was brought in for Arab hunters to chase around. Given that, the options for "what it might be" seem limitless but with a possible bias toward Asian deer species.
