According to some historians, African tribes invaded Italy prior to Hannibal and intermingled with the natives, producing the dark-eyed, dark-haired individuals we think of being in this group. Whether this is true is up to one's interpretation. Greeks, after all, are dark-complected and dark-haired, as are most Slavic groups. The theory of African interbreeding hasn't, to my knowledge, extended to them. Interestingly enough, the native Britons were dark-haired and dark-eyed, as were the native Irish. The waves of Nordic (Viking) pirates which came into their area were the cause of any lightening in their complexion. Most Europeans are dark-haired and dark-eyed. Blue eyes are a recessive trait, and therefore less common than brown anywhere on Earth.
