Facial reconstruction of an early European man


Much to the dismay of any would-be “White Supremacists,” scientists have recently revealed that the face of the first Europeans were surprisingly Sub-Saharan African in appearance.

The head of the prototypical “First European” was recreated from bone fragments, an incomplete skull and jawbone. These pieces were discovered in a cave in the south west region of Romania’s Carpathian Mountains.

Forensic artist Richard Neave is responsible for the reconstruction, based on fragments that are at least 35,000 years old. Radiocarbon dating analysis have determined that the oldest fragments may have been as old as 36,000 years old. Neave is a forensic artist, for a BBC program about the origins of the human race and evolution

At that time, Europe was inhabited by Homo Neanderthalis, or the Neanderthal man, who were quickly replaced by African nomadic peoples. The Neanderthal Genome Project has posited that the Neanderthals were killed off by these migrating groups. The first true homo sapiens (and homo sapien sapiens), in Europe, apparently would not have been recognizable as ethnically “Caucasian” whatsoever. Those traits, often identified as “white,” seem to have emerged much later, after Europe was settled by African peoples who looked like those Neave has recreated for us here.

The primary difference between this skull and later homo sapien sapiens are the unusually large molar teeth, which has led some scientists to speculate that the skull represents some intermixing with the native Homo Neanderthalis.

Whether or not that is the case, what is certain is that the appearance of the first truly “human” European ancestors looked nothing like what many would expect.

Erik Trinkaus, professor of anthropology at Washington University in Missouri, said the jaw in particular is the oldest, modern human fossil that can be directly-dated, saying that, “Taken together, the material is the first that securely documents what modern humans looked like when they spread into Europe.”

That might be a bit of a disappointment to those last remaining doubters that all of humanity originated in Africa and spread out from there.

You don't understand. The black Europeans were migrants from Africa. Africa was the birthplace of humanity.

The industrial revolution in Europe occurred only 250 years ago, which is like yesterday in historical terms. Before then Europe was not more developed than anywhere else. What happened to their ''advanced thinking ability'' for nearly 40,000 years prior?

Yeah, there was an acceleration in their development after the Industrial Revolution but you can deny their passion for development and discovery prior to that.

They were the explorers, the conquerors, the crusaders, inventors. No one is worshiping them here but there are certain positives that worked for them in developing their societies. We can take these positives, ignore the negatives and work on it to aid ourselves.

Topic:

The first Europeans were black - that's an open secret. But blacks aren't the ancestors of the caucasians. Yes, we did mix with their ancestors, however, their ancestors migrated from a different place entirely.

the suddenness of the industrial revolution is not like the "big bang theory". It didn't happen in a vacuum. There were a lot of explorations, discoveries, inventions, renaissance going on then. Then these activities reached a critical mass that was necessary for the birth of the industrial age.

I missed this.

Where was their passion for development for 500 years during the dark ages when they were savages? And at that period, Africa was enjoying its bronze and iron age. I believe trans-atlantic slavery made Europe and Western civilisation what it's today. Without that, Europe and Africa would be the same thing right now. Africa might even be better off due to what a lot of African tribes were able to achieve on their ownwithout outside interference. Egypt transformed the consciousness of humanity. Ethiopia birthed higher spirituality. And Timbuktu took formal education to the next level.

Black man, know your history - knowledge is power!!

The caucasians were uncivilized beings who once inhabited the caves of central asia,they lacked civilization. At the time they were living like savages in the caves of central asia, blacks were building civilized communities, ancient europeans were blacks,including the ancient greeks and egyptians. The whites migrated from their caves and invaded those black civilizations, from europe to Egypt, to north africa, it was the same.

Maybe that's why they are so scared of the black growing population,and won't stop at nothing to see it reduced, perhaps they learnt from our mistakes,when we allowed them to swell up in their caves in central asia,without contoling their population,until they over grew and invaded us. Haha!

Never mind me sha, just had too much alcohol this night. *grins*

Blacks were explorers, conquerors, inventors and invaders long before the whites. In fact THOUSANDS of years before the whites. Whites are newcomers to civilisation in historical terms. The pyramids and temples of Egypt and Sudan are thousands of years older than any European monuments. Meaning of course that blacks were the first architects, mathematicians, surveyors, scientists, physicists etc.
