The first story of the "Little Green Men" is the tale of "Green children of Woolpit" from the 12th. century is the most interesting story about the people, who lived in that time. Sometimes people believe that those creatures were humanoids from outer space and some other people that those creatures were children, who used green camouflage for some reason. If those children would be some humanoids, why their spacecraft would leave them behind? Or did they just escaped from their base, what could be underwater position somewhere near the coast of England?
Here I must say, that those things are only the speculation. But when we are thinking about the green children, we must ask, could be possible that those children or midgets skin could be green, because there were chlorophyll-molecule in the cells of the skin. In this case, that would feel very interesting, but same time the thing, what comes from the imagination. There are many things in nature, what could be possible, but the possibility for them is very small, and the thing could be that retrovirus were transferred genomes from vegetables to those children, when they were in blastula level inside their mother womb.
But let's think this thing more carefully. In the nature of the Earth, retroviruses can transfer the genomes between the species and could be possible that those viruses have spontaneously transferred the DNA what makes vegetables photosynthesize. If that genome transfer would be done when those children or midgets were in the cell level condition embryos, that virus could transfer the skin of those children green, because their cells would have the ability for the photosynthesis.
That thing could happen spontaneously if those children were identical twins but if we would want to be sure about those children identity, we should find more information about them from the books of the church or the place, where their grave is. If that place would be found the scientists could make the DNA tests for those bodies for making sure that those children were real and they really had unusual skin. But in fact, those children might be only the tale from the past. The tale, what has born the stories of "little green men from Mars".
