My theory, rests on what everyone else would have looked like at the time. Why are there black people in Africa, and Caucasians in Europe? easy, Evolution baby! the Pigment in the skin of a black person is melanin, it blocks UV rays and stops nasty things like cancer.
Europe is a different climate, up north during the winter the sun is only out for a few hours, thus Caucasians didn't need the dark pigment, it was evolved out.
If you look at skin colour vs Latitude, the more south you go to the equator from the north pole, gradually skin colour gets darker.
Now look at a map of where the "holy land" is....damn son...seems to be near to the equator, thus darker skinned.
Simple!
