[QUOTE]Originally posted by MrAboriginal: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Thereal: [qb] There were no other non white up until the mid and late 1800s with more comming after ww2 with there numbers be relatively small,because of the Indian repatriation act a lot of what could be revealed in terms of people of the americas is obscured,whites didn't widely use African to describe blacks in America and they consider 3/4 white and 1/4 black mix to be non white and people like skip gated perpetuate the idea Indians and black rarely mixed with the image of native Americans being light skinned and looking chinese,taken as a whole its odd there are images of people who don't look Africa, European or like the Chinese Indians with no info given because the non whites weren't here in large numbers. [/qb][/QUOTE]"They go completely naked except that around their loins they wear skins of small animals like martens, with a narrow belt of grass around the body, to which they tie various tails of other animals which hang down to the knees; the rest of the body is bare, and so is the head. Some of them wear garlands of birds’ feathers. They are dark in color, not unlike the Ethiopians, with thick black hair, not very long, tied back behind the head like a small tail. As for the physique of these men, they are well proportioned, of medium height, a little taller than we are. They have broad chests, strong arms, and the legs and other parts of the body are well composed. There is nothing else, except that they tend to be rather broad in the face: but not all, for we saw many with angular faces. They have big black eyes, and an attentive and open look. They are not very strong, but they have a sharp cunning, and are agile and swift runners. From what we could tell from observation, in the last two respects they resemble the Orientals, particularly those from the farthest Sinarian regions."
