What is blond, in a two-thousand-year-old context? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMqZR3pqMjg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMqZR3pqMjg

  It doesn't matter. Non-white people without steppe ancestry are pretty much uniformly dark-haired and don't have names akin to "subflavum" for traditional hair colors, because light yellow/gold hair just isn't a thing, regardless of what exactly they conceive of as "yellow/gold".

    Aboriginal Australians have blonde hair arising independently.

      Pretty sure Augustus wasnt aboriginal Australian, though (I see your point)
