Telling CM from Mongoloid-influenced Euros apart

**~~Siegfried~~** · 04-09-2012, 03:00 PM

It's rather obvious that Cro-Magnons and Mongoloids have plenty of features in common, such as high cheeckbones and rather flat or snub-noses. My question: is there any way to differentiate between a CM and a Mongoloid-influence European?

brother good thread,but mongoloids you can spot by their eyes

Cromagnoid have strong features, they haven't flat face, the orientation of checkbones, robust bodies in cromagnoids

Well there are some North Europeans who have narrow slightly slanted eyes also:

but those eyes make them mongoloid looking so they have mongoloid influences probably

I'm quite sure Bjork is an Eskimo or something of the sort, not CM.

The slanted eyes always seemed like an obvious give-away, but I've seen quite a few Faelids with slanted eyes, so I'm not sure anymore.

My bad.

No, she's Icelandic, but I think she might have some Eskimo blood.

There were never any Eskimos on Iceland, to me she look similar to these two Norwegian ladies:

Mari Midtstigen

Tanja Holmen

From Wikipedia:

he same study used preliminary genealogical analyses which revealed that C1 lineage was present in the Icelandic mtDNA pool at least 300 years ago. This raises the question whether the pre-Columbian Viking voyages to the Americas, in the 10th century, could have brought Native Americans with them back to Iceland. The study also finds out that at least 350 Icelanders today (roughly 0.12% of total ethnic Icelandic population in Iceland) might be of distant Native American ancestry.
