Author Description

Excerpt from Essentials in Early European History There is much dispute concerning the origin of the different races of mankind. People formerly thought that all the races which speak one of the so-called Aryan or Indo - Euro pean group of languages had a common origin. To this group belong Greek, Latin, German, and even the ancient language of India. The most recent conclusion is that neither similarity of language nor even marked physical features, such as color, enable us to classify the races of man.
