mixed yellow and red races; held islands off Asia 2 paragraphs

64:7.6To a cer­tain ex­tent the early red and yel­low men min­gled in Asia, and the off­spring of this union jour­neyed on to the east and along the south­ern sea­coast and, even­tu­ally, were driven by the rapidly in­creas­ing yel­low race onto the penin­su­las and near-by is­lands of the sea. They are the pres­ent-day brown men.

64:7.7The yel­low race has con­tin­ued to oc­cupy the cen­tral re­gions of east­ern Asia. Of all the six col­ored races they have sur­vived in great­est num­bers. While the yel­low men now and then en­gaged in racial war, they did not carry on such in­ces­sant and re­lent­less wars of ex­ter­mi­na­tion as were waged by the red, green, and or­ange men. These three races vir­tu­ally de­stroyed them­selves be­fore they were fi­nally all but an­ni­hi­lated by their en­e­mies of other races.

64:7.8Since the fifth glacier did not ex­tend so far south in Eu­rope, the way was par­tially open for these San­gik peo­ples to mi­grate to the north­west; and upon the re­treat of the ice the blue men, to­gether with a few other small racial groups, mi­grated west­ward along the old trails of the An­don tribes. They in­vaded Eu­rope in suc­ces­sive waves, oc­cu­py­ing most of the con­ti­nent.

64:7.9In Eu­rope they soon en­coun­tered the Ne­an­derthal de­scen­dants of their early and com­mon an­ces­tor, An­don. These older Eu­ro­pean Ne­an­derthalers had been driven south and east by the glacier and thus were in po­si­tion quickly to en­counter and ab­sorb their in­vad­ing cousins of the San­gik tribes.

64:7.10In gen­eral and to start with, the San­gik tribes were more in­tel­li­gent than, and in most ways far su­pe­rior to, the de­te­ri­o­rated de­scen­dants of the early An­donic plains­men; and the min­gling of these San­gik tribes with the Ne­an­derthal peo­ples led to the im­me­di­ate im­prove­ment of the older race. It was this in­fu­sion of San­gik blood, more es­pe­cially that of the blue man, which pro­duced that marked im­prove­ment in the Ne­an­derthal peo­ples ex­hib­ited by the suc­ces­sive waves of in­creas­ingly in­tel­li­gent tribes that swept over Eu­rope from the east.

64:7.11Dur­ing the fol­low­ing in­ter­glacial pe­riod this new Ne­an­derthal race ex­tended from Eng­land to In­dia. The rem­nant of the blue race left in the old Per­sian penin­sula later amal­ga­mated with cer­tain oth­ers, pri­mar­ily the yel­low; and the re­sul­tant blend, sub­se­quently some­what up­stepped by the vi­o­let race of Adam, has per­sisted as the swarthy no­madic tribes of mod­ern Arabs.

64:7.12All ef­forts to iden­tify the San­gik an­ces­try of mod­ern peo­ples must take into ac­count the later im­prove­ment of the racial strains by the sub­se­quent ad­mix­ture of Adamic blood.

64:7.13The su­pe­rior races sought the north­ern or tem­per­ate climes, while the or­ange, green, and in­digo races suc­ces­sively grav­i­tated to Africa over the newly el­e­vated land bridge which sep­a­rated the west­ward re­treat­ing Med­i­ter­ra­nean from the In­dian Ocean.

64:7.14The last of the San­gik peo­ples to mi­grate from their cen­ter of race ori­gin was the in­digo man. About the time the green man was killing off the or­ange race in Egypt and greatly weak­en­ing him­self in so do­ing, the great black ex­o­dus started south through Pales­tine along the coast; and later, when these phys­i­cally strong in­digo peo­ples over­ran Egypt, they wiped the green man out of ex­is­tence by sheer force of num­bers. These in­digo races ab­sorbed the rem­nants of the or­ange man and much of the stock of the green man, and cer­tain of the in­digo tribes were con­sid­er­ably im­proved by this racial amal­ga­ma­tion.

64:7.15And so it ap­pears that Egypt was first dom­i­nated by the or­ange man, then by the green, fol­lowed by the in­digo (black) man, and still later by a mon­grel race of in­digo, blue, and mod­i­fied green men. But long be­fore Adam ar­rived, the blue men of Eu­rope and the mixed races of Ara­bia had driven the in­digo race out of Egypt and far south on the African con­ti­nent.

64:7.16As the San­gik mi­gra­tions draw to a close, the green and or­ange races are gone, the red man holds North Amer­ica, the yel­low man east­ern Asia, the blue man Eu­rope, and the in­digo race has grav­i­tated to Africa. In­dia har­bors a blend of the sec­ondary San­gik races, and the brown man, a blend of the red and yel­low, holds the is­lands off the Asi­atic coast. An amal­ga­mated race of rather su­pe­rior po­ten­tial oc­cu­pies the high­lands of South Amer­ica. The purer An­don­ites live in the ex­treme north­ern re­gions of Eu­rope and in Ice­land, Green­land, and north­east­ern North Amer­ica.

78:3.8The peo­ples of In­dia lay stag­nant, with a civ­i­liza­tion that was un­pro­gress­ing; the yel­low man was con­sol­i­dat­ing his hold­ings in cen­tral Asia; the brown man had not yet be­gun his civ­i­liza­tion on the near-by is­lands of the Pa­cific.

Serapatatia was of b.r. 1 paragraph

75:3.1Adam had just fin­ished his first one hun­dred years on earth when Ser­a­p­ata­tia, upon the death of his fa­ther, came to the lead­er­ship of the west­ern or Syr­ian con­fed­er­a­tion of the Nod­ite tribes. Ser­a­p­ata­tia was a brown-tinted man, a bril­liant de­scen­dant of the one­time chief of the Dala­ma­tia com­mis­sion on health mated with one of the mas­ter fe­male minds of the blue race of those dis­tant days. All down through the ages this line had held au­thor­ity and wielded a great in­flu­ence among the west­ern Nod­ite tribes.
