The fact that Cheddar Mans corpse was rotting away and lying as bones in his cave for the rest of the Mesolithic seems to go against cave dwelling. Surely there were not tonnes of decent caves to choose from, and I find it hard to believe that the rest of the clan would just carry on while Uncle Grog rotted in the corner.

​@@Survivethejive Chances are CM succumbed to injuries while taking refuge from whatever hostile situation was there (Inclement weather or predation) possibly being cut off from his own clan in a hunt or himself being alone to begin with. Of course unless the people there believed in ritualistic sacrifices or their religions if they had any at the time played a role in it. CM could have also been a pariah from his own people too for breaking some tradition or committing a taboo among his own people. Not much clue on what to go on about HOW he died, if it was a social aspect or just some mere mishap.

None of them cluster closely with any of these ancient samples. Indo-Europeans are the ones who left the greatest modern contribution and gave rise to all modern European cultures, other than the Uralics, who also were in close contact with them. What do you get when you take I1 in its non admixed state? A bunch of berry foragers? You can't even call yourself a Germanic or "Viking" then, as they originated with Indo-Europeans.

Sean David To my knowledge, the top scientists who have worked on this clearly stated that skin colour is NOT something that can be determined. I remember one of them “issuing a correction” from the Natural History Museum when the BBC started the publicity with that ‘black’ looking Cheddar Man. His eyes were blue...that’s correct & confirmed by experts.

I've always thought it a rather peculiar assumption that most "cavemen" lived in caves. There do not appear to be enough caves to accommodate estimated populations. As you point out, just because the remains we have found are in caves, protected from erosion, does not necessarily mean that they lived there. I think it more likely that very few lived in the caves and that those sites were more of gathering places and places for rituals. Genetics has added a wholly new perspective on understanding the ancients. I am amazed at how we can extract DNA from such ancient samples. A very interesting video.

There are way more caves that have been lived in than most realise. The thing that puzzles me is places like Creswell Crags as most lived on or near the cost until only a few thousand years ago. Same as the caves in the dales. Given the (contested) population of Europe being possibly as low as 3000, if the population density of Europe was vaguely uniform then the UK would only have a few hundred. Creswell Crags, Victoria Cave, and Kent's Cavern between them could cope with that, never mind the bazillion caves on the coast near what would have been razor clam and limpets etc (both of which are damn good eating).

Did they? All of them? Every culture? Their purpose in choice of clothing was to depict sexual differences and nothing else and they had ethical standards dictating this fact? You know this for a fact? It wasn't a matter of practicality and comfort, for instance: for ease of sex, the different way the sexes piss, the chores each individual may have been doing each day, child rearing. No? You think it was a matter of men being men and women being women and never the twain shall meet and it being that way since we learned to fashion clothing from fibres and skins? You gathered that from one picture of one cave painting? Really? All I saw that made it different was the spirit man had a very large cock and no clothes and the women surrounding him clothed in skins, with tits. It was suggested it was a fertility rite, of course the people are sexualised. Where's the men to compare it with? Wearing a skirt of skins too. It's art, not reality. It's like saying all women were fat and round because most of the Venus sculptures were fat and round, we know they were not. They were unhealthy, often starved to death and they died at a very early age; do you really think they had time to have meetings on dress codes, let alone fashion a range of garments? Men and women have been wearing practically the same clothes (usually none) for most of history. When fabrics were invented they all wore robes. The first art showing wearing trousers was of horse riders of the steppes, again, practicality. It is only recent that the sexes were differentiated and only in some societies and mostly because of modern fashion western trends. Check your Victorian values, this is the 21stC.

@@d.m.collins1501 Would it matter if they were or weren't when the genetic group they belong to is European? I mean that's his point; that he was European genetically; he just lacked the specific genetic markers that result in a very pale complexion. You should drop your prejudice. He covered various factors which may have resulted in Cheddar Man being Black, he just considers them unlikely. What he said, was that he wasn't African. Today, we have people saying the Jewish and Semitic people were actually Black. Yet, we have historical evidence to the contrary, in Egyptian Stele that are several thousand years old, which are etched on limestone and pigmented, where that pigmentation that has survived for millennia in some places, shows Egyptian's as Dark Brown, another Group as Orange, and still another group which is identifiably Semitic as parchment colored. That's going back 4000 years to the period when Semitic people populated what is now modern day Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Israel, Palestine and half of Iran, and had trade routes stretching along the Southern Mediterranean Coast, up through Spain and Portugal, Iberia, to Britain, and potentially as far as Denmark, Norway, and Sweden, and mixed with populations of Indo-Europeans in Greece, Anatolia, and Armenia, and potentially as far as Afghanistan to the East. There's even older examples, that show similar pigment choices. Apparently Egyptian Pharaoh's took Semitic wives quite often around 2500 BCE. Possibly even some Indo-European, but it's hard to know without knowing the identities or origins of those people, unlike the other Stele where it is clearly known who they represent. They're dressed in Egyptian attire, and there doesn't really seem to be any indication of origin other than the choice of pigment applied. But, we do know from other Sources, that Women of non-Egyptian origin, were found quite often in tombs, at least in some places. Though, their origins have not yet been identified either; just that they're not native to Egypt. Sure, he could have been Black, but it's honestly doubtful. More likely he was closer to bronze skin tones or something similar, much like the Semitic and Indo-European people of later periods.

The scientists later admitted that they can't really determine the skin color of Cheddar Man. From the New Scientist journal of 21 February 2018: A Briton who lived 10,000 years ago had dark brown skin and blue eyes. At least, that’s what dozens of news stories published this month - including our own - stated as fact. But one of the geneticists who performed the research says the conclusion is less certain, and according to others we are not even close to knowing the skin colour of any ancient human. The skeleton of Cheddar Man was discovered in 1903 in a cave in south-east England where it had lain for 10,000 years. Until a few weeks ago, he had always been depicted with pale skin. This makes some sense, given that people living at northern latitudes often have paler skins. The explanation may be that it allows more of the weak northerly sunlight into their skin, so they can make enough vitamin D. And it seems our species reached Europe 30,000 years before Cheddar Man lived, so his ancestors would have had plenty of time to evolve paler skins. But the new DNA analysis suggests that Cheddar Man may have had dark skin. Most news stories said his skin was “dark to black”. Giveaway genes To show this, researchers including Susan Walsh at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis read Cheddar Man’s DNA. Walsh had helped develop a model that attempts to predict someone’s eye, hair and skin pigmentation solely from their DNA, and the team applied this model to Cheddar Man. The most recent version of the model was published in May 2017. It focuses on 36 spots in 16 genes, all linked to skin colour. To test it, Walsh and her colleagues took genetic data from over 1400 people, mainly from Europe and the US but also some from Africa and Papua New Guinea. The team used part of the data to “train” their model on how skin colour and the 36 DNA markers are linked. They then used the rest of the data to test how well the model could predict skin colour from DNA alone. The model correctly identified who had “light” skin or “dark-black” skin, with a small margin of error. When Walsh and her colleagues applied the model to Cheddar Man, they concluded his skin colour fell between “dark” and “dark to black”. Not so sure The research was first announced by press release, to coincide with the release of a TV documentary. It has now been posted to a preprint server. Walsh stresses that the study doesn’t conclusively demonstrate Cheddar Man had dark to black skin. We cannot place such confidence in the DNA analysis, she says. For one thing, Cheddar Man’s DNA has degraded over the last 10,000 years. “It’s not a simple statement of ‘this person was dark-skinned’,” says Walsh. “It is his most probable profile, based on current research.” In fact, we are not ready to predict the skin colour of prehistoric people just from their genes, says Brenna Henn at Stony Brook University, New York. That’s because the genetics of skin pigmentation turn out to be more complex than thought. Too many genes In November 2017, Henn and her colleagues published a paper exploring the genetics of skin pigmentation in populations indigenous to southern Africa - where skin colour varies more than many people appreciate. Just weeks before, a group led by Sarah Tishkoff at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia had published a paper on the genetics of skin pigmentation in people from eastern and southern Africa. “The conclusions were really the same,” says Henn. “Known skin pigmentation genes, discovered primarily in East Asian and European populations, don’t explain the variation in skin pigmentation in African populations. The idea that there are really only about 15 genes underlying skin pigmentation isn’t correct.” It now seems likely that many other genes affect skin colour. We don’t know how. If we are still learning about the link between genes and skin pigmentation in living populations, we can’t yet predict the skin colour of prehistoric people, says Henn. This debate may seem of little practical importance - although the idea that Cheddar Man was dark-skinned generated enormous public interest. However, we need to know the limitations of this sort of genetic technology. Police could one day plug DNA from a crime scene into one of these models to determine what a suspect looks like. Walsh’s model might succeed at this in the US, says Henn, because it was trained on DNA from people with similar ancestry to North Americans. But it may well fail elsewhere. Henn’s team has tested an older model that aimed to predict skin colour from DNA. When they put it to work among southern African populations, “it literally predicted that people with the darkest skins would have the lightest skin”

White and Black are words of our age, a lot of things happened in between and the ideas about race have changed many times as different groups interacted with other groups. We shouldn't get stuck into the idea that somebody with darker skin (and how dark that is of course really hard to judge) is in some way "African" or "Black", those ideas didn't exist back then and the divisions that we use are actually fairly recent (not last thursday tho, but they have changed over the centuries). Of course calling Cheddar man "Black" is a political choice the same way as calling Germans "the Aryan race", both are anachronisms and both should be brought into context. But on the other hand, you guys shouldn't get stuck up on the idea that your connection to these ancient peoples is that strong, a lot of funky shit happened in the history and it is many thousand years after all, don't fetishise the haplogroups as some people might be fetishising the phenotypes.

@@adriancarlos9155 Africa wasn't called that by European colonisers, that is completely wrong. It was the name for the southern part of Mediteranean (except Egypt that is, Egypt was perceived as not part of Africa) since early Roman times and it might be of Berber origin so I am not sure about who those European colonisers should be or how do you precisely mean it. Your argument about colour and names is a deep philosophical argument but I don't think it is worth discussing it here in length, I'll just say that race doesn't have that much to do with precise colour, that is just something you insert in the end as a signifier to justify your preexisting position. Many physiological things are not such signifiers and they are quite arbitrary (more in "Towards Political Theory of Race" by Sheth for example). Romans did judge people's skin tone - they had the word "Aethiops", "burnt-face", but it didn't have the same social connotations, Romans cared more about what gods you worship than what colour your skin has, but they weren't colourblind. As did the Egyptians for that matter, but the cultural implications in both cases was quite different on both sides. Around the idea of "Black people are from Africa and White people from everywhere else" - well, in pre-modern times it was mostly the case that in Africa the darker skin tones pevailed. But in the end we are all from Africa and as many racists gonna tell you, Indians aren't White in their book, Arabs aren't White in their book so in the end the places where White people are from get quite limited. I am not sure if you actually read what I was writing or even if you are engaging it in any way. For me African or Black doesn't actually have that much to do with the exact colour - it is a cultural signifier of OUR TIME, there are now identities based on that fact, and I am criticising both sides trying to force something onto somebody that didn't have this concept at all, so what is the point?

When analysing DNA and focusing on skin colour, there will be a range of possible skin tones, ..from lighter to darker / or darker to lighter skin tone. Unfortunately the group that stated that Cheddar Man was of the darkest possible skin tone, (And just as unlikely, as the lightest possible skin tone), chose the political, rather than the scientific, to inform their pronouncement. Choosing to conclude black skin as the original Western European colouring , so as to include, new black skinned immigrants, in the ancient history of Britain. If DNA analysis of ancient African populations were conducted, focusing on skin tone, and chose to favour the paler end of possible skin tones, and concluded that ancient Africans were pale skinned, there would be an outcry of “Whitewashing” from the dark skinned communities.?

There's a lot of denial about Cheddar man's skin tone on this channel. The stories that someone serious suggests some kind of false heritage for politics are nonsense. The populations who first had the genes resulting in paler skin moved into the area long after Cheddar man lived 8500 years ago. A light skin Cheddar man is not possible. There is no serious debate around this. It can't be denied that such an emotional reaction to a dark skinned Cheddar man is a very big indication of racism. My perspective comes from the right and I frankly troll the woke anti-racists running around screaming racism at every corner all the time. They are a real issue in the states currently. If I'm unconvinced you aren't racist you may have a problem. It's strange the channel props up David Reich, an excellent scientist, but then cherry picks the information in his studies to support a racial purity ideology. He has provided the bulk of the genetic science on the ancient hunter-gatherers and indo-europeans. In his words, that science "should give racists no comfort."

William Eaton We don’t know how light they were. We do know that modern Europeans took a lot of their light skin genes from neanderthals. Looking back on the DNA scientist still don’t know why, but it would seem clear humans in cold climates would need lighter skin for vitamin D absorption. Modern Europeans only became light within 11,000 years and perhaps maybe tanned skinned or brown skinned within the last 25,000 years. So most of the time when modern humans were in Europe they were significantly darker than they are now. Which is a very cool fact seeing we have only been around for 100,000-150,000 years.

The field is not settled yet. Seven years ago, they recovered post-Ice Age mummies from Spanish caves. They had been frozen for 6,000 years. They were dark skin dominant. The scientists that studied them concluded that blue eyes and associated mutations, including red hair, were less than 7,000 years old (5,000 B.C.E.).

Regarding skin colour of Cheddar man, Nina Jablonski of Penn State department of Anthropology, Found (I think in a study of Asian or American natives peoples) that skin colour could change from light olive to deep brown (and one imagines the reverse) in as little as 100 to 200 generations. She gave a time frame of about 2,500 years. So if Cheddar man's ancestry in northern Europe lasted longer than 2,500 years, then he probably had the skin colour not too different to that of say a Mongolian or modern Spaniard

A problem at 10:01. The relationship between the ancient samples and present-day populations will most likely depend on what PCs you choose to plot. It appears to me that PC1 (accounting for only 0.8% of total variance) was specifically chosen because it had high scores on variables that delineate mainland Europeans from peoples of Caucasia. In many other PCA plots you don't see such a gap. IMO, PCA should probably not be used for this purpose; dimension reduction, by itself, does not solve the classification problem. P.S. At 2:35 it says the probability of blue eyes was 53% which is probably not the same thing as saying they were a blue eyed population.

I'd be dubious when taking those upper limits of how long Indigenous Australians have been in Australia. Full behavioural modernity didn't really establish itself until 50 000 years ago, so either Indigenous Australians lack the genes related for full behavioural modernity (which is racist if wrong, and very confronting, if correct) or Indigenous Australians haven't been on Australia for as long as previously said (or they arrived in small populations 60 000+ years ago and then either died out, or bred into successive, much larger waves of migration, who left Africa later, with full behavioural modernity. In which case saying Indigenous Australians have been in Australia for 60 000+ years is like saying "Humans have been on the moon since 1969." We went there, were there for a little while, then left. We'll go back, but the evidence that humans were there in 1969 does not mean it was a continuous colonization of the moon from 1969 to the far off future when we inevitably colonize the moon. Take with a grain of salt, and do your own research where Indigenous Australian history is concerned, as there are as many vested interests in misrepresenting the age and history of Indigenous Australians to paint them as "the oldest continuous culture on Earth" as there are in misrepresenting Indigenous Australians as lesser than other races. Why would people want to study Indigenous Australians? Either they're not from the Australia and they have a dispassionate view, or they're from Australia, and they grew up with all of our post-colonial racial hangups and the unprofessional bias that that brings with it. It is accurate to say that the Tasmanian Indigenous, for example, continuously inhabited Tasmania for at least 10 000 years, before European arrival. THAT is an established fact, but the idea that humans arrived once to Australia 60 000+ years ago and then never arrived again and simply populated the continent from that genetic bottleneck (like many written sources on Indigenous Australian history positions readers to believe) is historically unlikely and academically unprofessional. It's not fashionable to state that Australian historical studies are INCREDIBLY politically biased, but if you've ever read any books on the subject (which I have. Dark Emu wasn't worth the paper it was printed on) you'd recognize there are a lot of emotionally invested people studying Indigenous Australian history, and that's not a good foundation for a field of research.

Even the researchers said they don't know how dark he was and the artist said the same thing. They sort of just chose that color. That same software claimed modern native Americans are black as west Africans. Most other software said he was more olive or "intermediate." Like modern day natives lol.

It's curious that they all appear to have had blue or green eyes. Pure speculation but I wonder if they all derived from a small group who were banished or fled north into an empty, isolated Europe. You can imagine that the first people in the near east to evolve blue eyes would have seemed very strange. Maybe they were persecuted by middle-eastern Mesolithic racists.

It's actually the other way around. It started out as a random mutation but then people started selecting blue eyed people as mates and then the gene spread rapidly from there.

@@elsargente But every single tested skeleton in Europe from that period has been found to have blue or green eyes, from Spain to England to Germany. Zero have been found with alleles for brown eyes and they were the first modern humans in Europe. If people with brown eyes sexually selected for blue eyes they would be finding skeletons with both combinations like we have today but that isn't what they're finding. The only way I can think of to get these results is if a group of people who already had blue eyes migrated to a place where there was no one except them.

@@gerard7817 That's true, but unlike skin tone which lightens gradually over multiple generations, eye colour changes from parent to child with no graduation, it's like an on off switch. Look at what happens today with albinos in ignorant African societies, they are persecuted and even killed. When south American tribes first encountered white people they thought we were gods, East Asians thought we were devils. Look at the way Donald Trump is persecuted for his orange skin :) The gene for blue eyes first evolved in the Middle East, so why do most of the worlds blue eyed people live in Northern Europe which back then would have been a terrible uninhabited place, you wouldn't choose it unless you were forced to. Even today most migration is forced, either by poverty, persecution or war, it's people trying to get away from something. Name any mass migration where the root cause of it was ever something good. And the fact that all the first Hunter-Gatherers in Europe had blue eyes and are now congregated as far north as you can get sounds suspiciously familiar.

Regardless of the media propaganda about Cheddar man or any ancient Europeans, they are still our ancestors. Never changed anything in my mind. They were not black or another unrelated race, they were people who eventually became us through whatever process. I think Cheddar man even has an English descendant (I might be wrong about that). The fact it was later admitted that his skin is on a sliding scale from 'a bit swarthy' to 'Congolese' is just hilarious. Loved the vid, keep up the good work!

i doubt they lived in caves en mass, caves just happen to be one of the only places where their remains can survive over 10s of thousands of years. a body buried in a field is subject to far more erosion and will be buried over with sediment and unlikely to ever be found.

Regarding vitamin-D we should also take into account that people spent much less time sitting at home. Consequently they consumed more sun and that might explain how dark-skinned WHG got enough vitamin D.
