Aside from looking morphologically different, all we know is that he lacked the light skin colour-associated alleles in modern Europeans and that his skin colour-associated DNA accounted for 40% of the variation between Europeans and Africans. In other words, he was at least half as dark as depicted. Darker than modern Europeans but lighter than Indians.

Any time. Keep in mind that your average North European is almost 60% Cheddar Man (WHG), so these deluded fantasies of low IQ journalists aren’t even remotely true.

Unfortunately, some people on the right have taken this opportunity to badmouth and cast doubt on the scientific research that the faulty reconstruction was based on. There was nothing wrong with the research, only the politically motivated reconstruction and the journalist swine who propogated it.
