The whole idea of "race" is actually a modern concept anyway. Names like "black" and "white" to refer to Africans and Europeans is a modern classification that was invented during colonial times, to promote ideas of "white supremacy". In ancient times, physical characteristics like dark skin or blonde hair would have simply been markers of one's geographical origins, but other than that it didn't hold much significance. Most ethnic conflicts in the ancient world were more to do with culture or competition for resources than they did with superiority complexes.
