The skin pigments and physical traits you describe asraces are an evolutionary process. When travel was not so easily accomplished in those early years, one clan of people would possibly settle in one area from generation upon generation. And so their physi- cal appearance would reflect the environment in which they found themselves. This is how the races were to come about. those who had green skin and those who had blue skin, who are in earth terminology, extinct. The green-skinned were jungle dwellers who dwelt in forests and green areas and adopted the 1 green skin. Doyou mean like a chameleonwould adaptto its surroundings? No, it was green from birth and remained so. The blue skin was the same-blue from birth. This was a genetic mutation which occurred. There was a violet or purple-skinned race of humans as well. These colors can be seen in each of us today at certain times. People may be said to be "green with envy," then may turn "blue in the face" or they may be "purple with rage." These are not coincidences that these colors are ascribed to skin colors. D: Then, you mean they araallpossiblewith the physicalmakeupofour bodies? P: That is correct. : Did these races also have different haircolors? Those with the green skin had a dark brown hair color which was wavy in texture. Those with the blue had a lighter, almost blond color ofa straight texture. The violet race had red hair and curly, kinky curly. Quite a sight to see. Yes, those were really different colors than we see today. Is thereany possibility of these races comingforwardinourpresentday as whatwe call "throwbacks" in genetics? There can occasionally be seen a birth defect which will appear as a purple blotch or violet patch. This isa reminder of that time. Imagine, if you will, a person with the entire body covered with such a pigment and you have one of the violet race. That makes it much easier to imagine. I have seen these, whatwe call mut ton "birthmarks." P: Yes, they are small reminders ofa previous time in Earth's history. D: Then, did these colors disappearthroughinterbreedingorwhat? 120 The Keepers of the Garden There were several races known to Earth. Of which there were This was certainly not the type of answer I had expected.
