I've got to think about this one.

The northernmost Europeans, in Scandinavia suffered from such a short growing season that much of their diet was ocean-based. Yet, they are the lightest skinned.

But even more to the point.....

Quote:Neanderthals living in Europe were fair skinned, freckled and had ginger hair, a study has revealed.

But, by all means let's have the discussion because it will be nice not to have to listen to someone prattle on about fucking jesus for once.
