Most ancient Europeans had dark skin, eyes and hair up until
3,000 years ago, new research finds

sporadic until relatively recently, said study senior author
Silvia Ghirotto, a geneticist at the University of Ferrara in
Italy.

Europeans because it enabled people to synthesize more vitamin D
— needed for healthy bones, teeth and muscles — in Europe's
weaker sunlight. But lighter eye color — blue or green, for
example — does not seem to have had major evolutionary
advantages, and so its emergence may have been driven by chance
or sexual selection, Ghirotto told Live Science in an email.

Ah, now I see why you moved this post here? Turns out Max Muller
was right, and Bryant has in fact been proven wrong?:

> Muller may have well felt the need to stress that "an
ethnologist who speaks of an Aryan race, Aryan eyes and hair,
and Aryan blood is as great a sinner as a linguist who speaks of
a dolicocephalic dictionary or a brachycephalic grammar"; after
all, it was he who had been a principal cause in such
misconceptions through his earlier remarks on the common blood
that the "English soldier" shared with the "dark Bengali".

Surprise, surprise! Even back in Muller's time, the Aryanist was
actually the anti-racist, while the westerner remains the true
racist...
