[QUOTE]Originally posted by rasol: [QB] [QUOTE]For most non African people they only thing they notice about inner Africans is their colour.[/QUOTE]This not only explains why Black is historically a [b]common ethnic term[/b], it also explains why tropical - in my opinion- will never be. Tropical is also not necessarily and accurate reference to entire morphologies biologically either. For example - it isn't clear why South African Khosian would be regarded as tropicAL. They don't live in the tropics, and their skeletal limb ratios - which are the primary basis for the anthropological label -tropical-, are -non tropical-. Whether their skin color is deemed tropical is also questionable as a 'scientific' matter. They are however Black Africans, which is a superfical and political ethnic label, just *like all other* ethnic labels. Black African is and ethnic label, tropical is not. It never will be.
