Hair color and eye color is an educated guess. We have painted pictures of the ancient Minoans and it looked like they had white fair skin and dark hair and eyes and they lived about the same time as this woman did and near Malta.
Libyans and the ancient people of the Canary Islands had fair hair and skin. As for the Egyptian Pharoahs, a lot of that hair color reported is the effect of age on the mummies. Its anybody’s guess.
Or Hera of the white arms.
I remember that. The skeleton found in a cave was called “Cheddar Man”. He was found in the town of Cheddar. The direct descendant was the school teacher.
