    bro theres plenty of sources stop being ignorant and start trying

    also yall are wrong. they were mostly people of colour somewhere between the two with some who were very white or black. we dont have much data on this because they frankly did not care about whether someone was white or black or anywhere in between.

        There’s plenty of links and sources in this one. Not quite Wikipedia quality in my opinion, but still, one quick search. You a clearly not looking if I could find one in 5(ish) seconds, while you demand sources. I would like you to give source(s) for your opinion now. While it is more of an article about if they were racist, it does explore their skin tone. They were not white, nor were they black; they were somewhere in between. https://lucas.leeds.ac.uk/article/skin-colour-in-ancient-greece/

          This doesn’t seem to talk about the actual claim of if there were “plenty of black people in Ancient Greece”. If it does, it seems to be buried in the study

                Just a min I’ll go find

                I was probably a bit tired while reading it and misinterpreted ! those but idk this is a pointless argument anyways and I’ll add more when I have the energy, you’ll have to remind me though

                    Only thing relevant to the actual question if there were plenty of black people in Ancient Greece is the mention of how Ethiopians were exotic to them, which seems to speak against them being common sight
