In Hugh Thomas' book he writes that both Lisbon and Seville were slightly under 10% black at their peak.
The only Europeans to have measurable amounts of black blood are Iberians and South Italians. I was reading Hugh Thomas's book on the slave trade and was curious if the Sub-Saharan % in Iberians came via the Moors or West African slaves. The answer, via K15, seems to be Moors:pic.twitter.com/w7y9oiGPji

Is it possible that these numbers are coming from earlier migrations? Galicia has one of the highest % yet there aren't traces of moorish presence so far north. No buildings, no place names, no art...

Sorry, you are wrong. All Europeans were black before.

Only the good ones, of course.
