That's pretty fascinating stuff and I plan on finding out more about the skin tones and migration. Hey Dr. Brennan,

The increase of blondism in modern Germany is due to more recent migrations from the North and East. All you have to do is look at portraits of old European Royalty to see they were almost always dark. Germanic poets also wrote poems about black hair being a sign of nobility. Also, what people fail to realize is that one of the genes that contributes to light skin is actually Asian. Consequently, Northern and Eastern Europe have high Asian admixture these days.
