Apulians (Italians from Apulia).. who overlaps most?

[Trun]

Albanians plot more Northern than Apulians from what I've seen. So they are actually lighter than Apulians.

They are the same latitude so it's more logical they are similar.

I meant compared to the rest of the South (but mostly the darker Calabria); we have more "mixed" Mediterranid features, but actually it much depends on the case..

Yes I see what you meant.

No it isn't. Albania borders with Kosovo and Macedonia and received a constant geneflow from those 2 countries. That means a higher percentage of light CM types among Alboz.

Genes =/= pigmentation. Take Iberians for an example. They cluster far norther than Southern Italians but are as dark as them.

North Caucasian folks and Georgians cluster far from Southern Europeans but they have the same pigmentation as them.

Only southern Apulians really look Sicilian and Calabrese to me.. people in the rest of Apulia look completely different to me. I don't think any of them look French or Iberian though.. at most, northern Italian.

[Daniele90]

About those posted only some would pass outside of Italy, although I know many that can fit at least in Southern France/Iberia... those still look "Mediterrenean" (not necessarily Mediterranid) enough to me

[Sikeliot]

What I can say is people in northern Apulia look more "Italic" (for lack of a better term) than they look like the Calabrese. But I don't see much difference between Salentines and Griko in southern Apulia when compared to Calabria.

[Aiala_Ajala]

Most similar to other southern Italians, then Greeks, though especially islanders, Cypriots, Dodecanese and Anatolian Turkish somewhat as well because Greeks are in good part Anatolian from the Neolithic also Armenia, even to me because Armenians are also largely Anatolian, so are Italians from the neolithic, then lastly the Levant, because Levant types are more, their physiognomy is much more different ,their phenotypes I see rarely in Italians so far.

Imo they can fit from Levanto to north italy and balkans countries. It's a legend that they look fairer than the others southerners. They are just vary like the rest of the south Italy as Daniele said...just Calabria,Sicilia and Sardegna are darker.

[Corvus]

I repeat what I have already written: ALL Southern Italians look similar irresepective of which province they are from, but they do look distinctive. Normally its possible to tell an Italian from a Greek apart, with few exceptions

Totally agree with this.
