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. |
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.
