BLACK LIKE THE FIRST EUROPEANS
The first people of Europe were prehistoric Africans. They lived mostly in the southern parts of Europe, and created many paintings and cave art throughout the region.
Pretentious scholars struggling with their self-inflicted racist diseases attach ill-fitting names to the first peoples of Europe. They call them funny names like Neanderthals, Paleolithic men, Mesolithic or Neolithic, Cro-Magnons, Grimaldi, Aurignicians, in a desperate bid to hide the cultural and historical identity of those people.
It is generally conceded by those scholars however, that the African people were the bearers of the first substantive elements of culture into the European continent.
Many thousands of years before the rise of the current pale tribes of Europe, an Afrocoid people known as the Grimaldi people, established the Aurignacian cultures. These people were anatomically modern human beings of the West African typology. They brought the first indications of cultural thoughts and rites into Europe.
The Grimaldi were Black Africans with very little body hair, black and smooth skin; they had the facial features typical of West African forest dwellers. They had kinky hair too. They arrived in Europe 40,000 to 50,000 years ago.
They ranged in height from tall to medium. Their culture had developed in Africa tens of thousands of years before they moved to Europe. It was called the Arugnician Culture. In 1994, scientists found corroborating evidence of stone and bone tools on the banks of the Semlike River in Zaire. They were finely crafted tools made between 75,000 to 100,000 years old long before modern humans migrated to Europe.
The Neanderthals non-modern human specie of man had left Africa early in time (80,000 years ago) and settled in central and southern Europe. It is speculated by bio-anthropologists that the genes of those Neanderthals are extensively sown in the modern European tribes of today.
The “Cro-Magnon,” people, late contemporaries and perhaps descendants of the Grimaldi people also existed in Central and Southern Europe many thousands of years after the Grimaldi Negroid had expanded to Europe but before the appearance of the pale version of Europe now known as Caucasians.
Actually, Caucasians as a race did not appear in Europe until about twenty to thirty thousand years after the arrival of the first Africans who by this very fact are the aboriginals of Europe.
WHENCE COMETH THE PALE ONE
There are many theories which seek to explain the reason for the switch in skin color of the Europeans. The theories proposed range from the Ice-Age effect theory, to those of miscegenation and others that suggest malnutrition. In all these theories lies the admission that the pale skin is a relatively recent genetic modification that occurred in originally Black Europe.
One of the more interesting propositions suggest that the change from black to pale Europe occurred as a result of miscegenation between the modern Africans arrivals in Europe and the primordial Neanderthal which had originally come from Africa. It should be noted that the primordial human Neanderthal (physiologically and intellectually) said to be among the ancestors of Europeans and Caucasians, also came from Africa to Europe about 80,000 years ago. Thus, the Neanderthal, which had apparently been forced to Eurpe from out of Africa, was also of the African genotype.
Some theories suggest that Neanderthals (who were originally black as all original Africans) later became pale-skinned and retained excessive body hair due to genetic selection responding to the need to adapt to the cold and darkness of Ice-Age Europe.
The modern day Europeans are the products of interbreeding between these mutated pale skin Neanderthals (i.e. mutated non modern-human Africa) and the later arriving modern black Africans of 40,000 -10,000 years ago i.e. the Grimaldis.
Warm blooded animals undergo de-pigmentation in the absence of light and warmth. If there were no Ice Age in Europe, the people would have remained Negroid/Black. Some of the darkest Africoid peoples still exist as the Australian Aborigines and Tasmanians. Their ancestors left Africa in the same waves as the Africans that went to Europe. It appears that of the anatomically modern human Africans who had migrated around the globe, those in the warmer southern climates retained their African pigmentation and those in the Northern climates lost theirs as a result of miscegenation with the pale skinned Neanderthals, who it should not be forgotten were originally of the African continent.

africa is the real garden of eden,evolution is a fact,we are definately part of the animal kingdom,when nature creates guys like jeffrey domer we still ask the cuestion of why,without reALIZING THAT THATS THE REMnants of the beasts still in us,after many millions years,man definately came out of africa,so it would be a fact to say that the first huimans were black. they went to europe and overtime became white,and in an effort of world domination they created all these religious myths,and lashed out against their black brothers,chasing them back to subsaharan africa,just 6,000 years ago the entire middle east and north africa were black,when the white one caught with history and realize the power of the monotheistic religions they destroyed as much trace as they could of the black presence documenting all the inportant figures in history as white people,common use your common sense,only the red sea separate africa from the middle east,just 2000 years ago the berber tribes of north africa were all black,actually blacks are a minority in northern africa,in recent history there was a mulatto president of the republic of colombia, when his portrait came back from france he was a white man,but that didnt work so they try to erase him from history by not mentioning him in any history books,but thanks to the research of some people over there that went to great lenths,there is no doubt colombia had a black president at one time in history,thats the problem with humanity,racism is a disease that never dies.
Very Well Said 🙂
Till we realize we are one…..nothing will move ….this is not government…this is the Universe……
First you say that black people are the aboriginals, then you say that white people are descended from Neanderthals which were there first. Wouldn’t this actually make white people the aboriginals??? Personally I don’t think there was nearly as much intermingling as you insinuate. If you look at the Neanderthal its nose is actually much broader and flatter than a human nose. Even more so than that of an African. If intermingling occurred I doubt Europeans would have the slender noses with high bridges opposite that of the Neanderthals. The shape of the face and back of the head is also a problem. The nose and mouth of the Neanderthal juts out with the forehead sloping backwards boasting very large brow ridges. This also causes the back of the head to drop further back to make room for the brain. If you look at the skulls of both Africans and Europeans you will notice that the European skull actually progressed in the opposite direction of the Neanderthals showing that there was little interbreeding going on. I disagree with many of your statements but I do feel that some white people may skew the facts in their direction. This is unfortunate but the answer isn’t to skew them the opposite direct but to be unbiased and balanced overall.

WHITES ARE ALBINO’S
I’m all for simplicity. There should be no mystery to science otherwise you are being tricked. So there can be no mystery about where white people came from. I consider whites albinos and descendents of albino’s. This is important because we are dealing today with white supremacy. Even modern, or especially modern and educated whites believe they are biologically and morally superior to blacks. That’s why I want each and every black to know that whites came out of blacks and can never, ever be superior to blacks. I believe that there are no races, just phenotypes which are just an adaptation to environment. If you believe in the Evolution you know that human DNA had a long way coming. Travelling first through the primordial pool, and picking up some useful tools to survive by adaptation. The albinism mutation was useful if there was suddenly less sun. Humans could already adapt within one generation to a new sunless environment. Just like they adapt to famine by producing off spring that can better synthesis and store nutrients, food in the body. A genetic function which lay dormant just kicks in. Human DNA is very old, older then humans. I suddenly think off images of babies who swim under water, knowing by their DNA not to hold their breath. According to an internet source 25% of the off spring of two albinos’ might be albino too. So this makes albinism also hereditary. And two off this type of off spring should have an even higher rate of albino off spring. Those are the whites, cold adapted in shape. All white life forms in nature; flowers, birds, mammals, horses, apes, whales, are a result from albinism. Yet when it comes to humans these whites will have nothing of that. Why? Just look at them, all of them. I have been looking at them for the past thirty years and I see albinos. Darker white types are whites mixed with darker ancestors. Albino’s are not less capable then non-albino’s, they only should take precautions before they go in the sun. They are not sick or retarded. Their organs are normal, just there skin lacks the possibility to produce melanin. Just like normal whites do. And we do not put a higher value on a white cat or a white flower over a black or a red one. So why should whites think off themselves as better? Or why should we be brainwashed to think that they have better abilities? As they are albinos, coming out of blacks there will always be whites. Coming from Central Asia, 6000 years ago, they probably overwhelmed the first European Blacks in numbers, who became a minority, because whites are better adapted to the European climate. I think that whites flocked to milder climates like how migratory birds find places to over winter. It’s just in their DNA. As we see with Australian Aboriginals with blond hair and black skin, blondness is also part of the black DNA, but seems to favour the albino’s. Now find out about my blue blood is black blood (1500-1789) theory on this site.

GREAT COMMENT – WELL SAID…
The missing link
By ABRAHAM RABINOVICH

As Neanderthal man has come into better view in recent decades, so has a larger mystery about him whose geographic focus is Israel.
He had red hair, light skin and was not as dumb as you think, in fact not dumb at all.
Neanderthal man has suffered a bad press since his remains were first excavated in the Neander Valley in Germany in 1856, three years before Charles Darwin published On The Origin of Species. Short and powerfully built, he had prominent brow ridges, large front teeth, a sloping forehead and a protruding jaw. His braincase was even larger than that of modern humans, but there was no mistaking him for an intellectual giant. His appearance was that of a “gorilla-like character” equipped with the sinews and brutish instincts that permitted him to survive among the beasts of the field.
“His lowering face accentuates his squat ferocity,” wrote Popular Science in 1921. Accompanying the article was an artist’s rendering – the first “scientific” reconstruction based on the Neander Valley remains – showing a dark, hairy figure gripping a spear as he surveys the landscape for prey.
“And was this the being from whom we sprang?” asked the caption.
The implicit answer was yes. Archeological finds showed that Neanderthal man disappeared about 30,000 BP (before present), giving way to modern man (Homo sapiens sapiens), taller, slimmer, recognizably “human” – apparently the next rung on the evolutionary ladder.
The image of Neanderthal man began to change in the 1950s when a century-long accumulation of hundreds of Neanderthal fossils led researchers to conclude that he had been greatly underrated. For more than 100,000 years he had coped with the cold, sometimes glacial, climate of Europe. He had controlled fire, made tools and crafted animal traps. He was the first creature to bury his own kind. “Once seen as dull-witted cavemen, Neanderthals were intelligent, adaptable and highly effective predators,” anthropologist John J. Shea of State University of New York would write.
About a decade ago, his image was softened even further when it became possible to extract DNA from some of the fossils. Neanderthal’s genes showed him to have fair skin, red hair and possibly even freckles. Anatomical and genetic evidence showed that he had the capacity for speech. “What is emerging,” wrote a British archeologist, Prof. Stephen Mithen, “is a picture of an intelligent and emotionally complex creature whose most likely form of communication would have been part language and part song.”
However, the DNA also showed that this increasingly sympathetic being had been climbing a different evolutionary ladder than Homo sapiens. Although scientists do not rule out sexual contact between Neanderthals and Homo sapiens, the DNA analysis establishes that there was no significant crossbreeding and that modern man carries no Neanderthal genes. It is not clear whether this was due to lack of sexual activity or whether the two were separate species and thus could not produce fertile offspring.
Neanderthal Man and Homo sapiens had diverged from a common ancestor in Africa close to a million years ago. When Neanderthal’s ancestors trekked north from Africa, his uncles remained behind and developed into Homo sapiens. It is clear from the archeological evidence that Neanderthals were for tens of thousands of years the sole hominids roaming Europe. Their stout build resembles that of cold-climate peoples today, like Eskimos. Some researchers have estimated that the Neanderthals never numbered more than 15,000 at any given time.
When Homo sapiens finally arrived in Europe, they displaced the Neanderthals in a relatively short period, a few thousand years. “What makes it so mysterious is that the Neanderthals were well adapted to the climate, very good hunters, very good toolmakers,” says Dr. Silvana Condemi, a French paleoanthropologist who lectured on the subject last month at the Van Leer Institute in Jerusalem.
The most widely accepted explanation is that the Neanderthals could not compete for game with the more numerous and better organized and armed Homo sapiens. The Neanderthals, who lived in small groups, are believed to have had only thrusting spears and stone knives, which obliged them to engage in close combat with often fierce prey, a scenario supported by the serious wounds many of the fossils display. The numerous fractures to ribs, spine and skull among Neanderthals is attributed to this close combat. Some researchers see a similarity with the wounds suffered by modern rodeo professionals and suggest that Neanderthals may even have wrestled some of their prey to the ground as in rodeo steer wrestling.
Homo sapiens are believed to have had stand-off weapons – throwing spears – offering greater efficiency and to have hunted in larger packs. Apart from this tactical advantage, some researchers suggest that Homo sapiens may also have dealt directly with the Neanderthal competition by killing them off. But there is no evidence for this and the two populations did apparently live in proximity for thousands of years. The last redoubt of the Neanderthal, as far as archeology tells us to date, was the cliffs of Gibraltar at the edge of the continent.
AS NEANDERTHAL man has come into better view in recent decades, so has a larger mystery about him whose geographic focus is – where else? – modern-day Israel.
In the 1930s, fossils were found in the caves of Skhul and Tabun on the western edge of the Carmel range alongside tools and other artifacts associated with European Neanderthals, the so-called Mousterian culture. This was the first indication that Neanderthals had reached this part of the world. Fossils associated with the Mousterian culture were uncovered shortly afterward in the Qafzeh cave near Nazareth by René Neuville, the French consul in Palestine. Similar finds followed.
French paleoanthropologist Bernard Vandermeersch carried out follow-up excavations at Qafzeh decades later and closely studied the fossils found in the country by those who had preceded him. In 1981, he published a paper which came to an astonishing conclusion: While all the relevant fossils found in Israel from the Paleolithic period were indeed linked with the Mousterian culture, not all were Neanderthal. In some of the caves – like Qafzeh and Skhul – the remains were clearly of Homo sapiens.
The fact that the Neanderthals had ventured this far south had been the first surprise. Even more surprising was the fact that Homo sapiens adopted for thousands of years the same Mousterian tool kit their Neanderthal predecessors created, defying the accepted notion that evolutionary change in mankind goes hand in hand with technological progress. “This has challenged established ideas concerning parallelism between biological evolution and cultural evolution,” says Condemi, a former student of Vandermeersch. What the evidence points to instead is apparent acculturation – an extended period of close contact between early modern man and the species he was destined to displace, with the latter offering him a helping hand.
The greatest surprise, however, was yet to come. New dating tools which became available in recent decades – like thermoluminescence, which measures the residual energy in flint which had been exposed to fire in antiquity – obliged a reassessment of fossil dates. Experts had initially believed the early modern humans unearthed at Qafzeh and Skhul to be contemporary with the first human remains found in Europe, which they closely resembled. The new dating pushed the Israeli cave finds back some 60,000 years – to 90,000 and 100,000 years BP respectively. Many of the Israeli Neanderthal finds proved much younger than that, turning the accepted chronology – Neanderthals older, Homo sapiens younger – upside down. The Neanderthal skeleton at Kabara dated to 60,000 BP and those from Amud cave to 55,000 BP.
In Europe, the chronology had been clear cut. Homo sapiens arrived about 40,000 BP and within about 10,000 years had displaced the last of the Neanderthals. But in the Middle East, the chronology was a mess. According to the archeological evidence, Neanderthals were still on the scene tens of thousands of years after modern man set up home in the Qafzeh and Skhul caves. Further complicating the scenario was the discovery in the Tabun cave on the Carmel of a Neanderthal fossil dating 130,000 BP – that is, predating by 30,000 years the Homo sapiens at Qafzeh, who in turn predated the Neanderthals of Kabara and elsewhere. Adding to the confusion, the Tabun Neanderthal fossil was itself predated by a Homo sapiens found in the same cave, but it is not clear by how much.
The explanation suggested by researchers is that climatic changes in Europe triggered the southern migration of some Neanderthals to the Middle East, including the Iraq-Syrian border area, although some experts admit to still being puzzled by the evidence. The fact that all the Middle East Neanderthal fossils are “classic” Neanderthals and not earlier forms shows that they did not evolve in the Middle East but came fully formed, as it were, from outside the region. This presumably means Europe, since no Neanderthals or proto-Neanderthals have been found in Africa.
As for Homo sapiens, Vandermeersch believes that those who would make their way to Europe about 40,000 BP originated not in Africa, as is generally believed, but in the Middle East itself. They evolved, he suggested, from fossils like the 200,000-year-old remains unearthed at Mugharet-el-Zuttiyeh, a cave near the mouth of Wadi Amud at the western shore of Lake Kinneret. If this could be proven, Israel’s – and to be fair, the region’s – claims on historical importance would be matched by its claims on prehistory as well.
“The anthropological specimens found in Israel have been crucial in changing our ideas about the evolution of modern man,” says Condemi.
Israel and its immediate neighbors formed the land bridge across which mankind’s ancestors forayed cautiously out of Africa more than a million years ago on the way to their destiny. It is in the caves of modern-day Israel that early man, pausing on that epic trek, apparently lived in closer proximity with his Neanderthal cousins than anywhere else and for longer periods.
Dr. Condemi, who spent six years at the Centre de Recherche Français in Jerusalem doing research on fossils, believes that the silent dramas of pre-history played out in this land merit more attention, alongside biblical archaeology, and that new excavations should be undertaken. “Paleolithic studies were very popular in Israel until about 1970,” she says. “It will be good if people realize how important this is.”
Should Israeli-Palestinian peace talks resume, the negotiators might consider a joint visit beforehand to the Carmel caves for a whiff of perspective. They would find it poignant, and perhaps instructive, to note that the attempt by two populations – “cousins” on parallel tracks – to coexist in this narrow strip of land despite their differences goes back, literally, to the beginning of mankind. Back then it seems to have worked.

I would like for everyone to take note of this excerpt from the article above:
“his image was softened even further when it became possible to extract DNA from some of the fossils. Neanderthal’s genes showed him to have fair skin, red hair and possibly even freckles.”
Not that this says much maybe with the exception of “FAIR SKIN” whatever that means. I don’t know if I’m just speaking for myself or if others relate, but from the beginning quotes like this have angered me and I’m quite certain black people overall. It seems to be important for White People to need to point to this. It’s always under the guise that White People will point out that it’s only for scientific purposes. It almost appears that the blow to Neandertal was softened on this alone, I guess even in spite of it’s accomplishments.
If anyone ever has to question why black forums discussing “SCIENCE” in comparison to other forums discussing science often are concerned with such things as race, don’t be an idiot and remember that it’s not just for scientific purposes for those concerned and means a lot more toward “SUPERIORITY” AND “SEPARATENESS’. This did not begin with black but the can has been opened into the minds of white people even if they were to choose to never discuss “WHITE” or “BLACK” again it’s too late – thank you. For scientists maybe, it’s about the data, for those funding these endeavors it’s about proving white “SUPERIORITY” while for blacks, it’s rightfully so to uncover the truth from a black origin/perspective. This is harder to say for WHITE PEOPLE givin their obsession and history. White people have brought this disease to I would say the world, but one thing can be said for certain if we want to know if whether “black” or “white” came first, we will always know that the origin of humanity is and has always been with and will always be in the hands of the dark and brown race – genes, DNA, phenotype and all else AKA “Black” – thank you science and thank you God for whatever this means. It should never mean “Black”/”White” but it does – thank you White People. As for Asia, I think a previous poster put it accurately to say that to argue over genes is uselss unless it’s not backed by physical anthropological evidence of which there seems to be plenty pointing toward the brown people – AKA “Black”. So I would end by saying so much for “Red Hair”, “Freckles”, and “Fair Skin” if this is to infur “White” as the brown race has claim to this as well being diverse not to say it could very well be what we know as “White” but given the time line maybe not. However, your article is none the less interesting.
my reply is these same perymid that are all over earth . are the same up in space bild by the black race .they are blue print of heaven.
Wrong. We have archaeological records from France that disproved this.
Your reply was in response to whom?
