True, true, the movie is full of DELIBERATE atavistic errors, that is, things out of time. I accept that the movie was a fantasy movie. You even saw the giant carnivorous birds, 'Gastornis', also known as, 'Diatryma', which existed during the Eocene Epoch, some 45 million years ago.
Anthropologists think that BLUE EYES appeared in the human genome somewhere around the Black Sea region perhaps 8,000 years ago. It was a defective mutation that proved harmless, low pigmentation in the eyes' irises. But you remember my positive reaction to Camilla Belle's temporary blue eyes and how much prettier she looked. That's probably the same reaction 8,000 years ago. The baby girl or baby boy was considered highly attractive by members of his/her clan. The child grew up, was married off to an eager partner and went on to produce many babies. The blue eye mutation spread like wildfire among the following human generations.

No, blue eyes spread like wildfire in Europe because they were more adapted for the cold weather in that region - along with other European features, like light colored hair, high-bridged/pointed noses. I don't think eye color is something most people even really notice unless it is specifically pointed out to them (as were Belle's eyes in this film). Most western sex symbols have brown eyes. Even in the OP, you mistook Camilla Belle's light green eyes for dark brown - and there is a huge difference in color between green and dark brown.
Anyway, I didn't think Camilla Belle's eyes looked good in this movie at all. Not because of the color, but because of how obviously fake and creepy they were. http://xdesktopwallpapers.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/10,000%20BC%20-%20Camilla%20Belle%20Hiding.jpg
