Dude... thats your assumption. Theres zero evidence in sweden of ten of thousands of years of human inhabition ... but sure thing
No shit sherlock
Europe is big.... sweden is tiny...
No you dont know. Youve chosen the versions and science you like and decided yours is right and disregard the rest
and lol @ simple math . Im glad youve figured out the truth of our prehistory bud.. u should do lectures. Go Put those genetic professors in their place mate
YOu get far to worked up. All my claims i say.
No i said they dont know how long humans were in europe befire getting to sweden.. is this really that difficult for you to understand ?
Because the very very very earliest human evidence is about 12000 years ago in sweden..
So you know. 100% with maths that the mutation for pale skin didnt occur in the time of years humans were in europe. Before spreading to sweden?
You're very impressive then mate. Hats off
I'm quizzing the shit out of chat gpt on this because I originally called bullshit but it seems to be legit.
I've got this timeline out of it at this stage.
Here’s a timeline summarizing how migration and environmental factors contributed to the development of lighter skin in Europe:
---
1. Before 12,000 Years Ago: Hunter-Gatherers
Appearance: Dark skin, dark hair, and sometimes blue eyes.
Lifestyle: Nomadic hunter-gatherers living across Europe, including the ancestors of early Swedes.
Environmental Influence: Dark skin provided protection against UV damage, which was less critical in northern Europe but retained from African ancestors.
---
2. Around 8,000–10,000 Years Ago: Near Eastern Farmers Migrate
Origin: Farmers from the Near East (modern-day Turkey, Levant, etc.) migrate to Europe.
Contribution: Introduce farming, tools, and new genes for lighter skin (SLC24A5 and SLC45A2).
Interaction: Intermix with indigenous hunter-gatherers, leading to gradual changes in skin tone.
---
3. Around 7,000–8,000 Years Ago: Evolutionary Adaptation
Environmental Pressure: Northern Europe’s low sunlight levels favor lighter skin to improve vitamin D synthesis.
Result: Lighter skin genes introduced by Near Eastern farmers begin to spread across Europe.
---
4. Around 4,500–5,000 Years Ago: Steppe Pastoralists Migrate
Origin: Yamnaya people from the Pontic-Caspian Steppe (modern Ukraine/Russia).
Contribution: Introduce more light-skin genes and lighter hair (blonde) and eye colors.
Significance: These migrants bring Indo-European languages and further diversify the genetic pool of northern Europeans.
---
5. Around 2,000–4,000 Years Ago: Consolidation of Traits
Appearance: Increased prevalence of light skin, hair, and eyes in Europe, particularly in northern regions.
Reason: Natural selection (for vitamin D synthesis) and possibly sexual selection (preference for lighter features).
---
6. Modern Era
Result: Modern Swedes and other northern Europeans inherit a mix of traits from:
Darker-skinned Mesolithic hunter-gatherers.
Lighter-skinned Neolithic farmers from the Near East.
Steppe pastoralists with blonde hair and light eyes.
Cultural Influence: Modern stereotypes of Scandinavians being blonde and light-skinned emerge, overlooking this complex history.

This timeline captures the gradual genetic and environmental changes that shaped the physica
l traits of modern Swedes. Let me know if you'd like this visualized further!
