"The moreno has wavy hair with the skin coloring
of a heavily sunburnt white. The mulato has
crisp, curly hair and is darker than the moreno.
The chulo has crisp, rolled hair and his skin is
the 'color of burnt sugar or tobacco.' The creolo
has fine wavy hair, is almost as dark as the
chulo, but has smoother skin. the cabo verde has
very straight hair and is the color of the Negro
sic." (Marvin Harris pg. 122)
