Interesting. I do believe that the earlier inhabitants of Southern Mesopotamia were Dravidan or Veddoid looking.

Leave it to white racists to speculate over such a finding. No doubt they will put more of their racial spins on it, as if it hasn't been a victim of enough racial spin.

So you believe the aboriginal people of Mesopotamia were black but not the aboriginal people of North Africa? LOLPosts: 26239 | From: Atlanta, Georgia, USA | Registered: Feb 2005

Yep, dark skinned just like the Elamites and folks in South Asia. There was a movement of light skinned folk that reached Mesopotmaia and changed the phenotype. These migrated into North Africa earlier. And folks from Europe came in during the Ice Age.
