    They seem to be rather common in the Eastern Med. I, for one, have a widows peak and have noticed quite a few Palis do as well.

    My half German half Irish Grandmother had a pronounced widows peak. I probably inherited mine from her, although it's not as pronounced as hers was.

    It is frequently found among Dinaric individuals. So anywhere there are an abundance of Dinaricized individuals expect to find widow peaks, Balkans,Italy etc.

    I have a widows peak. You can even kinda see it in my photo but there my hair is poofy, if I shave it's more dramatic.
