So I’m researching where white people originated because I don’t believe anything Academia says on the topic and I keep coming back to The Caucasus Region of the Eurasian Steppe. This is where a lot of people think the Indo-European language family was born but I disagree. I think it’s far older. Sanskrit and the Iranian language family are all Indo-European and they predate conquest by this nomadic steppe herder civilization.
“The term Caucasian as a racial category was introduced in the 1780s by members of the Göttingen school of history – notably Christoph Meiners in 1785 and Johann Friedrich Blumenbach in 1795.”
So rather late. If you saw my previous post on the first White Roman Emperor you recall that was in 1792. What does all that mean? Not sure. Still digging into it.
The Ancient Greeks describes Scythians as having white skin (which begs the question how they referred to their own skin color) and the Scythians migrated from the Caucasus region East into what is now Central Europe and obviously eventually wherever white people are found today it seems.
