I've read estimates that if without a bottle neck event it takes around maximum 60,000 years for a population to transition to black or white skin in accordance with environmental demands on their bodies. Cro Magnon people entered Europe from North Africa about 60,000 years ago do makes sense.
For centuries some of the people of Pontus had yellow eyes. Mithridates was famous for it. But the yellow eyed humans seem to have died out.
What the hell is that on his forehead? And I don't care what you say, I prefer to think of our ancestors as wearing shirts like that when they slowly migrated into Europe.

It’s claimed the mutation on the SLC24A5 gene that gives Europeans very pale skin dates to between only 6,000 and 12,000 years old.
It is not about the color of our skin, it is the Caucasian features that make us Caucasians.Remember, not all Caucasians are ''white''
According to latests findings the birth place of Caucasian race is neither Africa nor North Europe it is the Mediterranean region.
