Chinese version of Valley of the Kings.

some of the Han Emperors were noted for their green eyes and red hair.

I was startled to see a Pakistani on a British televison report from that area with flaming red hair and beard.

I've seen some of the Afghanis and others with blond and auburn hair, but this was flaming red.

Genetics is a tale with a twist.

red hair in Libya

Residual Berber genes.

Also, the Italians had Libya as their colony, and there are Auburn haired Italians. And don't forget the Vikings, who passed through the Straight of Gibralter and hit ports along North Africa.

"Residual Berber genes."

Yup. I've read that most of north Africa was predominately white folks at one time.

Don't forget the Vandals, a German tribe which made a mess of much of Europe. They settled in Spain, and then moved on to N. Africa and into Lybia.
