A few questions about the European Europid sub-races

[Norbert]

Although I've been familiar with some of these terms since late last year, I'm still very much an amateur when it comes to physical anthropology.

1) What is the difference between Hallsatt Nordid and East-Nordid?

My understanding is that the East-Nordid has a higher forehead, and is more robust than the Hallsatt, but maybe not as robust as the Trønder. Is this correct?

2) What is the difference between Faelid and Dalofaelid?

3) What is the difference between West-Baltid and Baltid propper?

4) What is the difference between Paleoatlantid, Atlantid, and Atlanto-Med?

Thanks.

1) The East-Nordid has a higher forehead and vault compared to Hallstatt Nordid, thats correct,often more prominent (and sometimes convex) nasal skeleton, the forehead is less receding that in the Hallstatt Nordid, body hair is not as strong as with the Hallstatt Nordid and the facial features of the East Nordid are typically softer.
2)Faelid is the term of Lundman referring to this sub race, Dalo-faelid is other term of von Eickstedt referring to the same sub race so are different names for the same sub-race.
3)The west baltid are a largely unreduced, only slightly balticized east CM and the baltid is an intermediate position between mostly unreduced, only slightly balticized West-Baltids and more fully balticized and Lappoid-influenced forms known as
East-Baltids
4) The Paleoatlantid is a term that denoting any strongly pigmented (European) CM.
The Atlantid is a generic designation, for the entire range of Nordid-Atlanto-Mediterranid/Mediterranid blends, typically of dark pigmentation, which may be found throughout western Europe, particularly along the coast and the Atlanto-med is a tall,more robust,straight-nosed and strongly dolichocephalic med type and Coon subsumed all tall-statured Mediterranids (including Pontid) in the Atlanto-Mediterranid category.

Thanks.

I can answer these ones, Faelid and Dalofaelid are one in the same. Paleo-Atlantid is nothing more than a swarthy Bruenn type, Atlantid can encompass North-Atlantid (dark haired Nordids) and Paleo-Atlantid as it lacks a specific prefix, Atlanto-Med I'm assuming is a taller Mediterranean type in Western Europe as opposed to being from Southern Europe.

Atlanto-Med I'm assuming is a taller Mediterranean type in Western Europe as opposed to being from Southern Europe.

Then Iberia must be not Southern European to you.

Then Iberia must be not Southern European to you.

I consider it Southwestern Europe, the Southern boundary of Western Europe.
