[QUOTE]Originally posted by Archeopteryx: [QB] [QUOTE]SLC24A5 is found throughout Africa, with highest diversity among the brown skinned Bantu's. Not pale Europeans. You therefore have no evidence indicating that these people were actually pale skinned at all. The osteological evidence makes it clear that these people during the Neolithic had a phenotype associated with Black peoples both Dravidian (often mistakenly called a "Eur-African" or hybrid in earlier text) type and affinities to NC speakers. These peoples dominated Europe until the Bronze age collapse with; [/QUOTE]You are out of your league, you do not know anything about Scandinavian archaeology and you do not know how the osteological material up here looks like (have you ever seen one single ancient Scandinavian skull with your own eyes? I have, because osteology was a part of the archaeology training), and you do not know if the neolithic northerners were dark or light. But we know that already the Motala hunter gatherers at least had the disposition for light skin. And we actually know that some of the Danish bronze age people were blonde. We have their preserved hair and other parts of their bodies. We do not find any so called "africoids" among them, whatever that is. There is no reason to think that the Motala hunters, or the neolithic population, or the battle axe people (who descended from eastern steppe people) where "africoids", it is just your wet dream. Seems you think that all people after leaving Africa staid the same for all eternity, that no people adapted to different circumstances, for example regarding available food, or amount of uv radiation, or other environmental factors. Do you think there were no mutations or any changes in peoples genomes or phenotype after leaving Africa and living in other environments for thousands of years? It is not how evolution works, evolution is change, to adapt to different environments. And also humans are subject to evolution, just like all other living organisms. You live in a fantasy land where you want everyone in prehistory, whereever they lived, to be black or negroid. It is a fantasy that actually seems a bit racist. And your arguments are not helped by quoting outdated old writings. The interplay between genes and phenotype, and the different migrations, and intermixings between different peoples in Eurasia is quite complicated, it is not just a simple question about black or white. Future research will give us more facts and higher resolution concerning which phenotypes different peoples had (if that really matters, it is maybe more interesting to know how they lived, what they ate, how their social structure looked like, and similar questions). Reality is too complicated to fit into simple stereotypes about black and white. Archaeological and genetic research are all the time progressing. Old racial writings from more than 100 years back do not say anything about what we know today. Here is a map that summarizes some of the knowledge and theories about distribution of skin color, hair color, eye color and migration in a European perspective.
