If you really want to push the narrative on the indigenous them we can go way back and change even more and say all human generated from the ocean so don't twist the point, and even considering humanity originated from Africa, the Caucasian have some mix with Neanderthal and also the physical traits differentiated from the thousand of years some population settled in different places.

I'm not pushing any narrative other than his source arbitrarily chose what the "indigenous peoples" of say "Europe" were when that went through what? hundreds if not thousands of changes over the past 20,000 years? At the end of the day those who created the report took some snapshot of history and declared these people in these areas at this time are going to be considered the "indigenous peoples of that area". If the researchers instead decided on a snapshot 2000 years earlier, the chart might look dramatically different. 

Of course I'm not saying that we should go back to the origin of the species and say some such nonsense like "we are all indigenous to Africa". That's fucking ridiculous.

Sure I agree the snapshot "timestamp" will vary greatly (as someone found evidence of black people indigenous to UK several centuries back). But I think that when we consider the context of this discussion and what we consider "European" people... then we already have somewhat of a time restriction that kinda validate the thesis of the average skin color of the indigenous population similar to the graphic.

I'm glad we agree that it was just some exaggeration to make the point clear.
