If All “blacks” Comes From Africa, Where Do All “whites” come From? by Maynman: 3:05pm On Jan 06, 2023
Light skin and dark skin genes originated in the area called Africa millions of years ago. Some early human ancestors lived close to the equator while others lived much further away, so would have had lighter skin.
Humanity’s closest relative, the chimp come in a range of skin colours, because some live close to the equator while others live further away.

The first human ancestor to leave Africa was the Homo erectus. He came in a range of skin colours and evolved into modern humans in various areas of the earth.
Humans need to absorb a certain amount of UV through their skins to enable them to produce vitamin D, and if they don’t get it then their children may be born with thin, deformed legs (a condition called rickets).

Close to the equator, there’s so much sunlight and UV that even very dark people can get enough sunlight to make vitamin D, and people need to be dark to protect them from skin cancer (and because absorbing too much UV increases the risk of having children with spina bifida).

Closer to the poles, though, there usually isn’t enough sunlight for skin cancer to be a major worry, and instead you need to be pale in order to absorb enough UV to make sure your children are born with healthy leg bones.

Nowadays this kind of thing no longer matters, because we have vitamin D supplements, and sunscreen.

Modern humans arose in Africa at least 250,000 to 300,000 years ago, fossils and DNA reveal. But scientists have been unable to pinpoint a more specific homeland because the earliest Homo sapiens fossils are found across Africa, and ancient DNA from African fossils is scarce and not old enough.

All “blacks”, all “whites” and all other in between both, came from Adam and Eve

Adam was reddish brown skinned, while Eve was black skinned.

Now the black woman (i.e. in this case, starting with Eve) is the only human that has the mitochondrial DNA (i.e. Eve Gene) with all the possible variations, for every kind of human being. Meaning that, when the DNA of a black woman's mutates, you have all other types of different skin tones and/or hues come about.

You’re yet to start anything worthy of argument Until you tell me where you pull “adam” and “eve” from?, is it not from Abrahamaic religion inside tanakh?

What kind of folly is this, you make a claim, you can’t cite evidence or sources and I should just believe like a typical believer?

The plagiarised story of adam and eve you are saying is gotten from Torah.
BTW, You should look up what “adam” and “eve” means, before you gobble in jewish mythology.

All your reason are gotten from a forged jewish book, no wonder you are ignorantly saying jargons that you read from it.

They do have different skin tones but they're all different degrees of what we would consider dark skinned and their skin tends to darken with age.

It's possible that the European skin pigmentation is a result of cross breeding between Homo Sapien and Neanderthal. Neanderthal were found only in Eurasia and probably due to the lack of exposure to the type of sunlight those from Africa would be, were already light skinned. This is supported by the fact that most Europeans have Neanderthal genes while Africans don't.

I get you but does that mean black skin people were homo sapiens before white skin people were, according to what you said neanderthal and Homo sapiens(black skin) cross breeded to produce white skin homo sapiens?

This is not a definitive answer and does not relate to skin colour in the same sense as used for humans. Also, are you a human or a bot because, i notice you don't coin words yourself, but copy and paste from other sources.

Yes, but not in the same way humans do. Let's look at chimpanzees, the closest ape to us. They do have different skin tones but they're all different degrees of what we would consider dark skinned and their skin tends to darken with age, accounting for those differences.

Skin color in humans serves a purpose however, dark skin, that is more melanin, protects better against UV and is often found in people who live near or on the equator. Light skin helps with vitamin D synthesis and is often found in people far from the equator. Less UV radiation reaches those places and UV radiation is actually important in synthesizing vitamin D, therefore lighter skin that lets more through is important.

Now back to the chimpanzee, we share a common ancestor from about 7 million years ago, this adaptation of skin tone in humans emerged around 1 million years ago at the latest.

So in summary, yes apes have skin tones but they aren't like human skin tones.

Neanderthals and Denisovans are more closely related to each other than they are to modern humans, meaning the Neanderthal/Denisovan split occurred after their split with modern humans. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neanderthal


Aside that, their are genetic remnants from isolated genome of the Neanderthal that suggest that the neanderthal crossbreeds weren't all reproductive, that is, were not capable of reproducing.

Neanderthal didn't split from Homo Sapien, they split from from Homo Heidelbergensis.

In this case, the statement reads "after their split with modern humans." meaning a split from the same lineage as modern humans, that is H. heidelbergensis. The issue here lies in compatibility of the both species; H. neanderthal [/i]and [i]H. sapiens. It could be the case that both species share similar genes in varying degrees as their common ancestor, there is also the case of interbreeding, but then we have to consider that H. sapien isn't just one population. Given that heterosexuality brings about new genes over a long period of time, and such genes continue to be scrutinized by environmental conditions, what's the possibility of interbreeding between HN and HH being the cause of eurasian skin color? We already see offsprings between different 'races' and notice how dynamic they can be. Those HN really need to be in the picture?

Because HN was well acclimated to the European environment and we know that that lack of intense sunlight causes decrease in melanin production. It is even in DNA evidence that HN had pale skin.
