Beskrivning:

map of the distribution of human races by Thomas Huxley, roughly drawn by me from On the Geographical Distribution of the Chief Modifications of Mankind, Journal of the Ethnological Society of London (1870) [1]

 
1: Bushmen
 
2: Negroes
 
3: Negritoes
 
4: Melanochroi (including Hamites and Moors)
 
9: Esquimaux
Huxley states: 'It is to the Xanthochroi and Melanochroi, taken together, that the absurd denomination of "Caucasian" is usually applied'.[1] He also indicates that he has omitted certain areas with complex ethnic compositions that do not fit into his racial paradigm, including much of the Indian subcontinent and Horn of Africa.[2] Huxley's Melanochroi eventually comprised various other dark Caucasoid populations, such as the Hamites and Moors.[3]
