[Ianus]

Mainly mediterranean, with some alpine influences. Someone seems exotic.

[Sikeliot]

I see three types:

1) Balkanic (i.e. passing in Romania, Bulgaria, Albania etc): #2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 12, 15
2) Anatolian (i.e. passing in Turkey): 1, 8, 10, 14
3) Gypsy looking/non-native: 3, 11, 13

[Sikeliot]

Where's Minard777, this one kind of looks like him:

#9 looks Romanian or something closer to that side of the Balkans.

[Archduke]

Katidis doesn't look gypsy or foreign.

He looks like he could be Romanian or something. Not Gypsy.

[Sikeliot]

Katidis doesn't look gypsy or foreign.

There you go, he's Pontian. A Hellenized Armenian more or less, that's why he looks like he does.

Yeah, he could pass in Turkey, Cyprus. I don't think any of them reallly looks like a Gypsy though.

[Sikeliot]

Yeah, he could pass in Turkey, Cyprus. I don't think any of them reallly looks like a Gypsy though.

He's Pontic Greek, and they are genetically Hellenized Caucasus people, so he's close to Armenians and Georgians more or less.

THIS one looks Gypsy though:

Very few Bulgarians can look like him too.

I couldn't say.

How do you think most of them look? To my eyes a lot of them just look Balkanic.

[Kastrioti1443]

#9 looks Romanian or something closer to that side of the Balkans.
you have clearly not a single idea how romanians look like.

[Sikeliot]

you have clearly not a single idea how romanians look like.

What does the guy look to you then? If you're about to say he looks Levantine, he definitely does not, and he also doesn't look very southern Italian either.

[Archduke]

I couldn't say.

How do you think most of them look? To my eyes a lot of them just look Balkanic.

When Bulgaria was under Byzantine yoke tons of Armenians settled in Thrace. Not to mention the Circassians and other Caucasian folks who were here as soldiers. But no more than 4-5% from the Bulgarians look like this.

[Kastrioti1443]

You seem to not understand something... because he doesn't look levantine or sicilian, that doesn't mean he mist look albanian or romanian.... he looks just greek.

[Tooting Carmen]

A mix of Pontids and East Meds, with maybe a hint of Alpine influence in some. Anyway, while some have blue eyes, not ONE player has hair lighter than medium brown, which is very unusual for a group of Europeans.

The last guy has dirty blond hair. These pictures are taken in a dark place btw. They are a mix of pontid-eastmed-anatolid-alpinid.

[Kamal900]

The guy looks west-Asian.

He (and Pontic Greeks in general) are West Asians.

Cut the crap about Pontic names. Not everyone who's name suffix is -idis is pontic greek! Anyone can have a name with idis from Cypriots to Thessalians. And there are also 200-300,000 gypsies in greece with names from all over greece including pontic' that doesn't make them pontic or thessalian or whatever

Katidis is not gypsy, he is Pontic Greek, but you should know that many Greek gypsies do have some Greek features just like Bulgarian gypsies in Bulgaria tend to look Bulgarian, Romanian gypsies romanian and so on.

Circassians identified as Turks later. Armenians remained Armenians. They weren't that many in a first place.

No offence but some Pontic Greeks look like our gypsies. And not only Pontic. Katidis has some chances to be thought to be Bulgarian in Bulgaria but many aren't that lucky. So you must be more careful when speaking about who looks gypsy and who not, okay?

Haha retard. I have seen the photos of your cousins and all of them were more exotic than me and yet very typical Greeks.

I have posted photos of my cousins and around half of them would be taken for Russians in Greece, as well as half of Bulgarians. It's because Greeks are so far from the main European types that for them even medium brown hair is blond. Not to mention that among ethnic Bulgarians olive skin is very rare while swarthy Greek mofos are all around the place where I live.

Read this self-hating Greek malakas Raine and SYKED.


Bulgaria and its women
by Hester Donaldson Jenkins
In April 1915 National Geographic published an article about Bulgaria’s women. Thus, after Bulgaria’s defeat in the Second Balkan War, Mrs. Hester Donaldson Jenkins, a professor of long standing at the American College for Girls in Istanbul, created another image of the country, not one of military courage. She offered the readers a portrait of the Bulgarian woman in the village
and in the city, along with observations on the character of the people, the traditions and the progress of the country.

Among the Oriental girls with whom I lived in my nine years’ residence in the Near East, none interested me more than the Bulgarians. They are perhaps the least Oriental of the eight or more nationalities to be found in Constantinople College, of which I was a professor.
They are fairer and brighter in coloring than the Armenians, Greeks, or Persians, rather taller and larger on an average, and have more energy and less languor than the Turk.
Bulgarian girls incline to roundness of contour and figure, many of them having round, full face, ripe, rosy mouths, and dimples. This effect is heightened by the fashion of wearing the hair in braids wound about the head. One sees plenty of dark hair in Bulgaria, but one also looks with
pleasure on warm brown tints, chestnut tresses, and occasional auburn heads. One of the most beautiful girls I ever saw was a Bulgarian, with a glorious mass of copper-colored waves, a clear pale skin, handsomely set gray eyes, a delicate mouth, and small white teeth, and the height
and carriage of a princess.
The bright cheeks that so many of the Bulgarians have are a pleasant change from the dark or pale skins of the Armenians and Greeks. Their eyes are generally less large and languorous than Oriental eyes, looking you squarely in the face, with more frankness and less seduction.

This American woman is grouping you with Armenians and Persians. LOL.

I was largely sympathetic to what you were saying until that point. Bulgarians are among the darkest Europeans of all excluding Iberia, Italy and Greece.

[Archduke]

So what? Only 5-10% from the real, ethnic Bulgarians have olive skin and thats becausee they come from lands which are much southern located than todays Bulgaria.

[Trun]

I was largely sympathetic to what you were saying until that point. Bulgarians are among the darkest Europeans of all excluding Iberia, Italy and Greece.

Excluding these three Europeans aren't that different in pigmentation (also excluding Scandinavians and Balts). Bulgarians may be darker than the rest but fully within European levels.

Because Russia = the entirety of Europe. May as well say that if you don't look Russian, you don't look European, lol. And of course Greeks don't pass as Russians as we aren't slavic invaders. I don't give a fuck what your cousins look like, it's about what you look like, which is an Afghani IED maker.

Actually you can clearly tell genetically, who is "invader" and who is not. I am sharing with a woman on 23andme half Epirote half Pontian, and the second I saw her results I knew she could not be fully Epirote, she was 28% "MENA" as opposed to the normal 1-2% for Epirotes on 23andme. I checked her family surnames and they were full of -idis, -oglu, etc.

i would like to see from where are they taking the photos...a few days ago a greek made a portugues thread with very similar photos (i guess they are from u20 european cup) and the guys also looked very dark..

Those were cherrypicked too.

I'm sorry but it's impossible for these to be ethnic Greeks. The other dark one is Pontian so it makes sense.

Why not? They're less exotic than many of the leaders of Golden Dawn.

Those above look Gypsy. Not even Turkish, they look like South Asian. Or even Mexican mestizo.

Number 8 is even more exotic than those two

Actually, if I remember rightly, the top one is Jose Holebas, who is half-Uruguayan. I don't know about the bottom one though.

He didnt include about 4-5 members.

But apart from 2 the rest are not dark for S.Euro standards.

The two I quoted, plus the Pontian, are the dark ones. The rest look South Euro and Balkan.

There are 3 players with Pontic Greek names.

[Argentano]

Those Greeks are dark but in terms of features they don't look Semitic/Levantine or anything.. they look more like Gypsies IMO.

No, they don't. You have no idea how Gypsies look, I see. They don't look Semitic/Levantine either. They just have their own look.

They dont look Indian imo,they certainly seem to be dark For local standards(in these pictures at least).I neither think that they show Amerindian influences.If dark pigmentation is of gypsy origin,I don't know.

I don't know what they look, but it's a look that I can't place other than what I said.

Do you notice the difference between the inner knee and the exposed areas?

Indeed - that is why scientists always measure unexposed parts of the skin in order to gauge what an individual or an ethnic group's natural pigmentation is like.
