Do more of those Algerian students pass in South Italy or North India?

[MisterGaga]

I copy on Tatooing Carmen who made a similar thread. This once I use Algerian students and add 2 more places to contrast in the poll.

Those average/standard students , taking from universities in several cities of the country.

As a group, Levant for sure. Only few persons can also in Iberia + South Italy. None of them can pass in North India, no way.

well there is diversity there for sure but not as much as they state . most of it is a forum phenomenon :) . some of these people will pass there for sure but not because they look indian but because some indians can look like that ...but it is not a "fit" for them ...especially not as a group . same goes for the other places but there will be more overlap with those than with india naturally because of shared mediterranean types and also geographical proximity

Your ranking is good I guess.

As a group also , they look what they are , NW Africans/Berbers.

[Deneb]

They are mainly berberids, thus collectivily don't pass in Southern Europe, although some could likely pass individually. India is too far away, and Northern Indians have different facial features.
Look distinguishably North Africans imo.

[abcd123]

Maybe I'll get thumbed down,but they look whiter then I expected.They'd pass in Southern Italy,Iberia and maybe even in the Balkans.They look more european than turks and other middle easterners.

[GiCa]

Mmm.. What?..

..many could go even unnoticed in my ethnicity.

Most of them can pass in italy

And i M surprised by some light haired types (medium brown Hair) i ve neve r thought that some tunisians might be that fair.

Lets just be realistic. IF one is part Italian, they should post photos of their ancestors. I have done this and it showed both light and dark types, with most in between, slightly on the light side... And one that looks West Asian! LOL!

[MsSPF]

Brut i m sure many moroccans look a bit. darker for example

Although dark eyes are obviously predominant in Algeria (and Morocco and Tunisia)as they are south med countries, light eyes are not something rare or atypical in this region. It's something frequent, especially in northern parts. Light hair is something less frequent than light eyes but not something surprising too, you can find dark blonde(light blonde is rare as an adult but for children it exists a lot but they go darker) and redhaired people. Actually, I've seen in my life more redhaired Algerians than redhaired French which is kind of strange lol my great grand mother for example was redhaired with blue eyes and freckles (i'm 100% algerian)
To answer to your sentence saying that algerians are the lightest maghrebis, basically northern Maghrebis (algerians/moroccans/tunisians) are lighter than central/southern ones. However, you're not totally wrong because the majority of algerians live in northern coastal places which is not always the case for moroccans or tunisians living also in central/southern coastal places. So in terms of proportion, algerians are lighter and more homogenous than moroccans or tunisians. but northern tunisians, moroccans are basically the same of northern algerians in terms of features and pigmentation.

There 4 choices on the poll , so you can vote for one and for several ones at the same time. This is no mean to made a comparison between the two or so.

Interesting as I m studying like hobby how sun irradiance gradually change fisically aspect.

Algerians live as you sayd almost all in the northern coast.. Wich is latitude 34/33 and gets similar sun irradiance as andalucia or the Syracuse part of Sicily.. So I m not surprised I find many of them familiar..as pan Southern European.
While those who live in the desert since ever should be brown skinned people.. Like a Yemeni for example..as there the sun rays have no mercy. How are people adapted to desert tipe? Such as Algerians who live since ever in the desert.

[GiCa]

Those northern Indians are light skinned.. I consider that tone still light skin.

Well.. I would say however that Algerians look to me more similar to Southern European. I don't know why but I get this impression. Also on genetic map maybe North Africans are more nearer to us than to North Indians.. Or not?
This should be reasonable since they are geografically more near to us


The black skinned man..is not a North Indian. That would be impossible.
He s from India part down the tropics. So the southern half of india

And how I hate cast. That man is like every other people same as us. It s only that Europeans and middle eastern are used to light skin.. Both light and olive and not to black skin..since our country are in a white skin latitude zone

[MisterGaga]

There ain't no french. They are Algerian female student of the university of Tlemcen (Algeria) welcoming the French president at their school when he was visiting the country. As much as you can be surprised , these phentoypes are common in thr coasts and especially Tlemcen region. MsSpf is 100% from there and has her 23andme results.

About 15 to 20 % of Spanish territory is at the same latitude as Africa. Only the most southern tip of Sicily is the same latitude as North Africa.

I don't know how is the weather in Sicily/Southern Italy but it is probably very similar or the same than in northern coastal Maghreb. But yeah it's true the weather in southern Iberia is exactly the same than in Northern Maghreb which is logical because it's very close so I guess the same thing for Sicily. Climate in northern coastal Maghreb is basically the mediterranean one + in morocco you have also the oceanic one in western coasts. the more you are closer to the desert, the more it's obviously very hot, dry and desertic.
Summers in northern Algeria are hot but mediterranean, winter is cold, sometimes very cold. Maghreb is a very mountainous place, you find moutains almost everywhere especially in Morocco+Algeria and a bit in western Tunisia.
Most of Algerian coasts are very mountainous and it snows during winter. The same in Morocco in the Rif (northern morocco)+central Morocco until Marrakech.
Differences between northern, central and southern maghrebis are slight but still noticeable. The more you're close to the desert, the more people are usually darker and to some extent, sometimes "blacker". Of course it can happens the contrary but in general the northern maghrebi is obviously lighter than the southern one. I was in holidays in Agadir (southern Morocco) and people knew I wasn't from here, they guessed me riffian (northern moroccan) or algerian.

Climate in northern coastal Maghreb is basically the mediterranean one + in morocco you have also the oceanic one in western coasts. the more you are closer to the desert, the more it's obviously very hot, dry and desertic.
Summers in northern Algeria are hot but mediterranean, winter is cold, sometimes very cold. Maghreb is a very mountainous place, you find moutains almost everywhere especially in Morocco+Algeria and a bit in western Tunisia.
Most of Algerian coasts are very mountainous and it snows during winter. The same in Morocco in the Rif (northern morocco)+central Morocco until Marrakech.
Differences between northern, central and southern maghrebis are slight but still noticeable. The more you're close to the desert, the more people are usually darker and to some extent, sometimes "blacker". Of course it can happens the contrary but in general the northern maghrebi is obviously lighter than the southern one. I was in holidays in Agadir (southern Morocco) and people knew I wasn't from here, they guessed me riffian (northern moroccan) or algerian.

southern Spain is more hottest of Sicily :thumb001:

+ 1 MSspf is totally right.


@Giaca : humm I would say yes you probably , like many Italians/Spaniards on here, had a wrong/false printing of NW African phenotypical variations based on some strong racialist stereotypes vehiculed in those countries and probably of its climate too :laugh: it is not just a desert (typical stereotype) , it is also largely mountainous with lots of forests and bluesea coasts (Atlas range).

There ain't no french. They are Algerian female student of the university of Tlemcen (Algeria) welcoming the French president at their school when he was visiting the country. As much as you can be surprised , these phentoypes are common in thr coasts and especially Tlemcen region. MsSpf is 100% from there and has her 23andme results.

is Hollande an Algerian student? :picard1:

Well.. 0_0.. Those people from the last fotos.. I have really some Sicilian friends who look identical.

Really interesting

Yes.. Sicily is quite similar on climate. But on sun irradiance.. The most similar to North Africa are Syracuse province and extremadura/andalucia as well as southern turkey

Algarve temperatures are less higher than Andaluzia, I think is probably the influence of the Atlantic.

This threads are so redundant. How many sikeliots does TA need? we need a mod to do the work and merge this threads and move them to where they shoukd be: troll carnivale. Otherwisebthe entire antrosection is one huge troll carnivale.

Also, big obsession with Italians. Why Italuansvand Spaniards are such huge fetishes to so many lol.


This Algerians don't look like indian at all. They look mediterranean therefore mire similar to other meds but they are still a different variety if meds than Euromeds and they arent really all that similar
