    Default People of Tajikistan

    They are largely the descends of Eastern Iranians like Sogdians and Massagetae with some ~13% East Asian influence.

    Well That was also my impression. It really looks painted because on the edge of her Brows it looks greenish. I dont know why someone would do that anyway.

    This looks very extreme and based on her other features it looks unreal to me.

    Similar things are also done by Berbers. The woman paint their Brows together to make them appear different from the Sub Saharan population which tend to have wider brow ridges

    It's also common among Uyghurs and Uzbeks. It's Iranic influence I think because you can see the same painted unibrows among women in ancient Persian drawings.

    In ancient Persian art I have never seen woman with unibrows. Only in Turkic and other Central Asian cultures. It is obviously done in Central Asia to differ themselves from the mongolid population.

    It is obviously painted here is another example.

    Just because you didn't see it, doesn't mean it doesn't exist. It was common among ancient Persians too, as a sign of beauty. It has nothing to do with race.

    I'll post some pictures of Persian drawings later on.
