is fun how they always dickride the stupid idea that septimius severus was a nigger from a single byzantine image with very faded pigments when he was descended from the legionaries that stablished in northern africa, but the whole stupid idea is not just destroyed but ridiculed by the busts in the capitoline museum, as the recidual pigments from his bust point towards him having lighter skin, hell even funnier is that from the recidual pigments hadrian, who was from southern spain had such a deep tan that he would look even darker than the original color of the byzantine painting... and nobody is calling hadrian black... not to mention that it is recorded how Septimius Severus almost shat himself the first time he saw an ethiopian as he thought that such blackness in the shape of a man walking on borad daylight could only be a creature of the ctonic depths auguring the end of times...
