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

[Aiala_Ajala]

Surely single individuals can fit in the Levantine and thus have a Levantine Semitic middle eastern phenotype. Italians central, south, far south in medium groups, large groups and as a whole-majority defintley do not look Semitic Levantine.

Some far southern Italians also have an Armenian-like appearance.. I have been mistaken for one several times. I do think Apulians look a bit more Balkan than other regions of southern Italy, though.

Armenians look very different from Italians.

Italians in general, but some southerners can have an Armenian-like appearance. Not most, some.

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.

Partially true, I am originally from the Gargano and clear somatic features are quite common, even if many individuals seem more mixed with Slavs or Germans than with Italics in the strictest sense of the term, many people I know would have passed easily in areas like Poland or Germany than in northern Italy, my cousin's guy with somatic features seems to have literally come out of the former Soviet Union, checking his surname on the internet it actually seems to be of Slavic origin, and it is a fairly common surname, I think it is one of the areas of Italy with the most extreme melting pot, I suppose due to the geography, it is literally between central and southern Italy and next to the Balkans, any event that upsets these 3 territories has indirectly upset the Gargano as well

Good job reviving a 9 year-old thread.
