Sicilians often have darker skin due to a combination of historical, geographical, and genetic factors. Sicily's location in the Mediterranean has made it a crossroads for various civilizations, leading to a diverse genetic heritage influenced by ancient Greeks, Romans, Arabs, and Normans, among others. Additionally, the island's sunny climate contributes to a generally darker complexion among its inhabitants. This diversity in ancestry and environment results in a range of skin tones among Sicilians.
Sicilians can have lighter complexions due to various historical influences, such as invasions by different groups like Greeks, Normans, Arabs, and Spaniards. Intermixing of different populations over time has resulted in a diverse range of skin tones among Sicilians. Additionally, environmental factors like sun exposure and genetics can also play a role in determining skin color.

i am sicilian and my whole family has a dark complexion with dark brown hair with an auburn tint and dark brown eyes with a tint of red. I know it sounds weird but it's true! we also are about short to average length and have olive skin tones. Very outspoken people. You'd be lucky to know one;) Anyone who has been to Sicily will be astounded at the variety of hair, eye color and facial features of Sicilians. I too am half Sicilian, and we are blond, blue eyed people. We are from the heartland/interior of Sicily. On the coastal areas, we saw more of the al Pacino type looks, dark skin, dark eyes, etc. So many red heads and so many beautiful eye colors!!! Really a diverse and good looking people who are mixed with many races...greek, northern european, north african (tunisia, morocco etc), Spanish, French, etc. there is no "typical" sicilian look...in america, we have come to see the dark eyed dark haired sicilian as typical. Nothing could be further from reality. My cousin, have the most beautiful amber eyes and hair....awesome and very fair skin.
No, cremello horses do not have dark skin. They typically have pink skin, which is more prone to sunburn compared to horses with darker skin.
Italian Naturally it is Sicilian and Sicilians like to be called Sicilians they do not consider themselves Italian though Italy owns Sicily.
Not "Everyone elses" The dark skin is the default skin, nicknamed Steve :P You can easily change your skin.
The majority of Indians are black to dark skin. It's due to the environment and climate.
no, solomon or his mother are not said to have dark skin, just Asian like skin
They like dark skin women because it's something so different from what they have and dark skin women are so beautiful! People love the opposite of what they have a lot of times!
Incorrect Sicily it Part of Italy and therefore Sicilians are also Italians.
Nope, unless you are referring to recent immigrants from Africa into Sicily. Ethnic Sicilians do not have any African ancestry and are the same as other Italians.
