    Default Classify my Cape Verdean great grandfather

    The man on the far right of the picture.

    One poster said he looks 30% African.. another said he barely looks African at all.



    The woman second from the left is my grandmother.. classify her too.

    They don't look anything African/negro to me.

    I've noticed that with just a small amount of negro admix, the features which betray this admix tend to be; wide nose, some prognathism, big mouth. All together it creates quite a distinctive look. Looks somehow primitive.

    ^ Neither of your grandparents display such traits.

    Both look pretty much like Aplinoid Mediterranid with Atlantid influences.

    Agreed, I don't particularly see the African. He just looks advanced in age.

    He was from Brava.. the island that received the most Portuguese settlers (including recent ones) and had the fewest slaves.

    Thank you

    He came from the least "black" island of the Cape Verdean islands.. this man is from the same one and has a similar look IMO
