@bibliolater @archaeodons @anthropology A really insightful set of critiques.
"We can now say that (some) Mesolithic Europeans (likely) had the currently rare combination of blue eyes and dark skin, although variation existed (Brace et al. 2018; Günther et al. 2018). While Neolithic individuals of ultimately Near Eastern descent had dark hair and eyes, but fairer skin (Krause and Haak 2017, 30) [...etc...] What remains unaddressed, to date, is why we would wish to know this in the first place."

The benefits of science are not only material ones. The truths that science teaches are of common interest the world over. The language of science is universal, and is a powerful force in bringing the peoples of the world closer together.
