Re: When did humans divide into separate races?

so, if we avoid to speak about race or whatever sounding like to this word,
can we estimate the time for a certain kind of population to adapt to
specific environmental condition ?
For instance human being loosing their skin pigmentation in order to absorb
more energy from the sun, or eyes adapting to the ambient light ?

No, because it didn't happen.

Obviously all humans started out as one race,

Perhaps not-equally-obvious-to-you, all humans are still one "race".

so at what dates in history did the human population split

No such dates will ever be available.

into the major geographic races

No such divisions exist.

such as negroids, caucasoids,

Ah, yes; two of the three fundamentally-erroneous classifications
of the range of visible differences among human beings, derived from
an expansion and adaptation of the tripartite system of an amateur
in a small town in a small principality in central Europe, which was
well away from the major trade routes, so that it is unlikely that the
classifier had ever actually seen anybody that he would not describe
as "Caucasian", which term was based a description of people that
the classifier had also probably never seen, which may be why his
term would not describe most people from the Caucasus, nor would
it include most of the people of northern Europe, if its origin was to
be taken seriously.

South East Asian & pacific islander, north east asian?

These seem to be sub-sets of the third "major geographic race",
known first as "Mongoloid" (because the geographic limits of the
Mongol Empire seemed to coninide with the geographical limits of
a human "race", as seen from a small window in a small house in
a small town in a small principality in the middle of Europe) and
later as "mongloid" or "mongoloid", with an expansion to include
areas which were never within the Mongol Empire, but excluding
the areas which do not include people who would be easily
described as "mongoloid", and including people who have also
been described as being "caucasoid' and people who have also
been described as being "negroid", but excluding people in
North and South America, who have been described variously as
"mongoloid, "caucasoid", "ameroid", "negroid", and "anthropoid".

What was the chronological sequence in which
those major races split from one another and
what were the dates?

Your question cannot be answered with reference to conditions
in the real world.
Your question is based upon a shared fantasy, based upon
the attitudes of a small mind in a small room in a small house in
a small town in a small principality in the middle of Europe
towards limited and questionable information from
near the middle of the previous millennium.
I am sorry, but there is no scientific answer to your question.
