This is quite true, they actually had no word for blue, so they called the colour of the sky "bronze" this is what they called blue.

I was taught at Art School, in colour theory, that Africans see colour differently from Caucasians, especially bright colours, which to them are duller.

This isn't my theory, in case any cantankerous old gits are reading this.

Are we real? We could all be the figment of someone else's imagination.
