[QUOTE]Originally posted by Mystery Solver: [QB] ^Want to stay focused on the topic initiated by the Quetzalcoatl, but as to your point about African diversity, perhaps Hiernaux as a non-African said it best: Jean Hiernaux "The People of Africa" 1975 p.53, 54 [i]"[b]In sub-Saharan Africa[/b], many anthropological characters show a wide range of population means or frequencies. In some of them, the [b]whole world range is covered in the sub-continent[/b]. Here live the [b]shortest[/b] and the [b]tallest human[/b] populations, the one with the [b]highest[/b] and the one with the [b]lowest nose[/b], the one with the [b]thickest[/b] and the one with the [b]thinnest lips[/b] in the world. In this area, the range of the average [b]nose widths[/b] covers [b]92 per cent of the world range[/b]: only a narrow range of [b]extremely low means[/b] are [b]absent from the African record[/b]. Means for [b]head diameters[/b] cover about [b]80 per cent of the world range; 60 per cent is the corresponding value for a variable once cherished by physical anthropologists[/b], the cephalic index, or ratio of the head width to head length expressed as a percentage....."[/i] If you agree there is diversity amongst Africans, then surely you must also be open to the idea that trends too exist within this diversity, and the case is true for anywhere else to some degree or another. ;) [/QB][/QUOTE]
