Pliny, Naturalis Historia, 2. 78 (77 AD): "…in the frozen and icie regions, [b]the people have white skins, haire growing long downeward, and yellow[/b]…" Lucan, Pharsalia (Civil War) 3. 89 (61 AD): “And Ocean borne his chains! How noble Gaul, And [b]Britain's blonde-haired chiefs[/b] his lofty car.’’ Lucan, Pharsalia (Civil War) 1. 450 (61 AD): “The fair haired people of Cevennes…” Strabo, Geographica, 7. 1. 2 (7 BC): “The Germans, who, though vary slightly from the Celtic stock in that they are wilder, taller and have yellower hair, are in all other respects similar” Lucan, Pharsalia (Civil War) 2. 60 (61 AD): ‘‘Let loose from furthest North [b]her yellow-haired tribes:[/b] Elbe, pour thy Suevians forth!’’ [/QB][/QUOTE]
