Aren't most humans descended from some royal lineage or another? That makes us all kangz n shiiieet.

On a more serious note, I thought we already knew that humans are a Sub Saharan African species, why is it a revelation to find more evidence that supports that?

What a fucking revelation.

It's denial. People seem to think Sub-Saharan Africans were all savages in loincloths.

Ethiopian, probably.

The Roman empire united for the first time in human history let a man go from one very different part of the world to another very different part on 1 language and 1 currency.

Yes I say human history because Asians all look same and middle easterners are pretty much 1 race anyway.

So? People migrated within the Empire all of the time. Roman cities also contained inhabitants of people who weren't even part of the Empire. Hindus from India lived in Rome. Why is it so hard to grasp a Sub-Saharan women lived in Roman Britain?

The remains of another woman found in York and She has been called Sub Saharan, Black and North African throughout the many articles of her.

They are stating sub saharan but at that time period Romans were in North Africa.

There was no extensive contact with the Sahel, the most immediate region below the Sahara.

Check Roman itinerariums, they roamed around more than we think. Later when Christianity caught on there were special Christian itinerariums written specifically for pilgrims who would visit Jerusalem or some other holy sites.

Yes? Travels are usually costly, especially when you're going long distances

If you weren't going to travel on foot like a nigger you needed at least two good, endurable horses. And not to mention personal expenses during the travel like buying food or staying at inns.
>>
>>1191415
I meant a large majority of people did not have the money to travel

>>1190765

She was identified as a nigger not scientifically, but by a facial reconstruction expert based on her skull. Meanwhile, the science says:
>isotopes showed the Beachy Head Lady was raised in or around Eastbourne from a young age.

She was white, maybe with an unusual skull shape for a white woman, but unless niggers in the Roman period were big on travelling huge distances with their infant children, there's no way she was born outside the country.
>>
>>1191421
Well yes, it's hardly imaginable your average Italic peasant would ever leave his village for instance.

But then again not everyone was poor

Yea I'm going to call bullshit. Sub saharan cultures rarily interacted with Romans while North Africans were common and had excellent social mobility.
>>
>>1191603
>>1191368

You can tell a person's race with high accuracy, but only from a systematic anthropological study of their whole skeleton, not from just a facial reconstruction expert looking at a skull.
>>
>>1190765
She looks more ethiopian or North African considering her hair(Unless they redid the hair differently)

There's also speculation Queen Elizabeth is very distantly related to Muhammad. It might just be WE WUZ shit though perpetrated by Saudis

Most of them are blonde and blue eyed with pale skin. Just look at a picture of a British crowd.

I think most of European royalty is. There were some sayyids (Muhammad's descendants through Ali) in Al-Andalus who ended up marrying into Spanish nobility at one point.

Yh but only because the roman territories used one language/currency (like anon said) and spanned over such a large land mass that there where no borders making it easier to travel to exotic regions

Koreans tend to have relatively box shaped heads, thinner eyebrows, thicker hair, less beard. Chinese have wider and rounder faces in general though they are many and varied, eyes wide apart. Japanese are a little babyfaced eyelids are more open and pointing down inwards.

Sub-Saharan slaves in loincloths were bought and brought to Britain to balance amphorae off dat booty and slam their bunda on ancient Roman cocks.

No one is saying that was not the case however England at that time was a roman occupied outpost, in all likelihood it was a north african woman.

I have a friend or two trying to claim her as one of us, I just have nothing to go on to believe she is Horner.

>middle easterners are pretty much 1 race anyway.
I'd basically agree with you, but Middle Eastern populations were quite heterogenous until Islam came and Arabian Bedouins and their magical Skygod raped everyone.

Early Caliphs specifically used mass immigration (to newly conquered areas) to quell restless non-Muslim native populations. A population pocket of 10,000 armed Arab Muslims given the best water sources/farmland/market spots is a good way to ensure you have a steady supply of soldiers that are better off than the locals.
>>
>>1191095
>can't tell Germans from French
That's because you haven't been to either place.
>>
>>1191361
It's not that couldn't or didn't want to physically travel. You had to have some money to support yourself, and also the freedom to drop everything and leave for a year or so, maybe more. If you're a subsistence farmer or some kind of urban labourer, you're less likely to go very far. Still, I don't suppose it would be all that unusual, if not frequent.
>>
>>1191393
Do you know how many sexual diseases alter your bones? Do you know how many existed in Roman times in Europe or MENA?

I'll let you do some research and then let you punch yourself in the balls for being this dumb.
