[QUOTE]Originally posted by Archeopteryx: [QB] Britain has been subject to rather many immigrations, two for about 10 000 years ago belonging to different branches of the western hunter gatherers. Seems at this stage there were no Eastern hunter gatherers as it was in Scandinavia. Next major immigration was the Anatolian farmers and after them the steppe herders with their roots in todays Ukraine. About 800 or 900 BC a Celtic influence came to dominate parts of Britain. After that followed Romans, Angles and Saxons, Vikings and Normanns, so Britain has gone through several demographic shifts. When it concerns skin color light skin can have come later to the British isles than to Scandinavia (here we find such individuals already 8000 years ago among Scandinavian hunter gatherers). In Britain it can have come with the Anatolian farmers and even more surely with the steppe herders nearly 5000 years ago. During the early iron age we find well preserved bog bodies with blonde or reddish hair. When it comes to Cheddar man it seems that some doubt that he was really that dark as in the reconstruction. Maybe he looked more like Tom Björklunds interpretation of the "Danish" girl Lola who also was a Western Hunter gatherer but who lived much later. It can be worth mentioning that some people have complained that the picture of Lola is too dark, while others have complained that it is too light. When it comes to skeletons the Western hunter gatherers seems to have been rather like todays North and West European people. Just somewhat bigger jaws due to more extensive use of them.
