[QUOTE]Originally posted by melchior7: [QB] [b]Indeed. There goes the lie of white indigenes of the Canary Islands! [/b] Nobody used the term White here. But we did mention that some Guanche were fair comlexioned with light hair. The main point here is to show that these people who are believed to have been for the most part descendants of ancient Berbers were not Blacks, but they resembled most of the Berbers Today. The book describes the inhabitanst as dusky meaning swarthy like many North Africans today. You notice the author did not say they were negroes. And I'm sure he knew what Blacks looked like and would said as much. That they can grow their hair long enough and tuck behind their ear in the style of the English should give us some indication of its texture. Any case as I said there were variations in phenotypes among people from different Islands. There is no denying that there were fair types as well. And here are some exapmles of what people refer to as dusky. Have a look. http://celebrityemails.blogspot.com/2007/07/dusky-beauties-of-bollywood.html Here is a statue of a Guanche leader.
