From what I've seen the majority of them are actually West Baltid.

Baltid mostly, with a few Baltid / East-Nordid.

That makes more sense. Most of the East-Baltids that I've seen had a rather 'Mongoloid' look. I've seen videos with Estonian people in it and none of them had that Mongoloid look...

Est. is pred. baltid with normal nordid influences. East baltids and east nordids are rare among Estonians..

Yeah, I think Baltid classifications are a bit iffy, specifically Baltid/East Baltid. From looking at the pictures in the east Baltid thread, most east Baltids are Sami people in Scandinavia, in Russia/the Urals and a lot of Tatars. I'm not an expert by any means though.

If that's the case, then wouldn't that mean Finns are pred. baltid with normal nordid influences as well?

The finns are on average more nordid.

Anyone else? Sorry I didn't put West-Baltid in the poll. I didn't know West-Baltid was a thing back then. I wanna know what's the most common Baltid type in Estonia.
