    The Cro-Magnon were early modern humans that lived in Europe, west Asia and the Middle East. Skin color was basically the same as today. Near the Mediterranean they had brown skin. Farther north they had lighter skin.

    He was Homo sapiens. The early ones were almost certainly very dark skinned. It is theorized that some 10 to 15K years ago they became lighter skinned but it is hard to know since melanin doesn't fossilize. Some DNA evidence led them to believe the 10 to 15K years.
