I see 2 commonly quoted maps for distribution of native human skin colour.
Both are old; they have a lot of odd divergences - as well as many matching features, some of which are hard to explain.
One is Biasutti, 1940:

Another is Gerland, 1896:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human...780_Global_map_of_skin_color_distribution.jpg
Which of these is reliable? Is there any newer map considered more trustworthy?
