Apulian People

WOW! Very Beautiful people indeed!

You should post some local beauties, mates, they still exist.
Extreme beauty (IMO) from Salento, very natural girl:

I still see an Albanian-like vibe in many.

I could put here some even more "exotic" examples (both going more North or more South); they are rare but they exist.. Apulians are more or less heterogeneous (maybe similar to other regions) ; I agree that many look somewhat Balkans-influenced, while others are more similar to other Italians/Iberians

In Campania maybe, but I don't see that in Apulia (or in the rest of the south for that matter, either).

Some Italians and some Iberians (not both); Iberians are basically mostly Atlantid-Med or Atlantid (& the usual Med component alone here and there), and I can ensure you there are a few Atlanto-Meds without too pronounced Dinarid characteristics..

I thought you meant the people could pass as both at the same time. I was disagreeing because when I see a Campanian who looks Iberian, my first thought is that I would not have instantly guessed them as southern Italian, whereas I don't make this mistake with people from Calabria.

Judging from the people in these photos they look more Pontid or East Med, than Atlanto-Med.

Mongrels all of them.

It is wrong since "Upper Southern Italians" are not extremely different from Central Italians, except more Med characteristics here and there ; Calabrians are quite "peculiar", and I guess the isolation of the region plays its role..
However Apulians as I can see tend to almost universally have some Dinaric characteristics (just in others are prevalent, in others less)

Mongrels all of them.

We are all mongrels of different "races"..
