2023-09-15 13:12:53 UTC - MISINFORMED_OR_POTENTIALLY_MISLEADING

DNA cannot 100% conclusively demonstrate ancient Britons had dark to black skin. DNA degrades over the last 10,000 years. For example, there is doubt Cheddar Man had dark skin. https://www.newscientist.com/article/2161867-ancient-dark-skinned-briton-cheddar-man-find-may-not-be-true/ https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-5453665/Was-Cheddar-man-white-all.html https://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2017/10/a-brief-history-of-the-genes-that-color-our-skin/542694/ https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/267443v1

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1702423364470514162

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
