When Robert Molyneaux created these two Yamnaya reconstructions, I asked him to do one on the lighter end of the scale, and one on the darker end, to reflect the diversity of skin tones found among them. Some people insist that they were "brown" but the truth is that the complexions of WSH fell within the range currently associated with European people. In the infographic you can see that even the fairest region of Europe, Ireland, has many people in the IV range, whereas the V range to which the darkest Yamnaya belonged, exists among native Spaniards. I myself am IV in the summer but no one has ever mistaken me for an Indian!
