What I meant was, do Horners have desciptors for phenoytpes/skin color etc. like for example an African American calling someone a 'redbone' or high yella, etc.
nvm, I think Voradors post answered it.

I read somewhere that in many African societies, natives categorized fellow Africans into six categories... "light skin", "light brown", "red-brown or medium-brown", "dark brown", "dark skin", and "red" (in reference to North Africans and Arabs in some cases). This is true among the Tuareg and Songhai for example.
