Tacitus used the term "vultus colorati" which can mean either sunburned or dark-faced. He stated that they resembled the Iberians.
Silures were a Celtic tribe that lived in Iron Age Britain. There is no historical evidence to suggest that they were a dark-skinned race. Physical descriptions of ancient peoples usually vary and are often based on artistic interpretations rather than concrete evidence.
The first Australians were dark-skinned people of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander descent.
The dark skin of Africans is a result of adaptation to high levels of UV radiation in their environment. The high melanin content in their skin helps protect against UV damage and skin cancer. This adaptation is an evolutionary response to the climate and geographical conditions of Africa.
Skin color variation in humans is primarily due to evolutionary adaptations to different levels of ultraviolet (UV) radiation in different geographic regions. Darker skin provides protection against harmful UV radiation in sunny areas near the equator, while lighter skin allows for greater absorption of sunlight to produce vitamin D in regions with less sunlight. Over time, populations living in different environments developed distinct skin tones as an adaptive response to their surroundings.
Yes, there are African people with varying skin tones, including light skin. Skin color in Africa ranges from light to dark due to genetic diversity and historical mixing of populations. It is important to recognize the diversity of physical characteristics among African people.
Indians are typically considered part of the brown race, as their skin tone ranges from light to dark brown. The term "black race" is more commonly used to describe individuals of African descent.

dark skinned
Contrary to popular belief, no. Skin colour is simply an adaptation to climate. People in hot climates tend to be dark skinned, while people in colder climates tend to be light skinned. People of all races can be coloured differently. For example, Caucasians can be very light skinned (ex. Western Europeans) or very dark skinned (ex. Indians). The only difference between races is the skeletal structures. Technically, the only race is the human race.
Yes
It depends what you mean by dark skinned, but there are darker skinned spanish people.
If by "Race" you mean skin colour; the Norse gods were caucasian. There were no dark skinned peoples living in Scandinavia at the time. Otherwise, the Norse gods, as a race were called the Aesir.
Yes, there are people of African or Caribbean descent living in the Netherlands who may have dark skin. Dutch nationality is not dependent on skin color, so these individuals can be considered Dutch.
A lot of people tend to depict light skinned girls as being more "attractive." Take for example... Beyonce, Mya, Keisha Chante, Keri Hilson, Mariah Carey, Alicia Keys..etc. But I don't really think that one race can outshine the other. There are light skinned AND dark skinned girls who are beautiful. We all have flaws within ourselves. I'm lightskinned, but even still I take offense when all you see in the media or magazines are light skinned girls. I have dark skinned friends, and my older sister is dark skinned or brown skinned. Each and every shade is beautiful, no matter how light, and no matter how dark.
all men like dark skinned women.
