i've used last algerians national football players from the world cup.. i'm going to post their names

[GiCa]

those used

Abdelkader Ghezzal, Abdelkader Laifaoui, Anther Yahia, Djamal Abdoun, Djamel Mesbah, Faouzi Chaouchi, Foued Kadir, Hassan Yebda, Ishak Belfodil, Karim Benzema, Karim Matmour, Karim Ziani, Lounes Gaouaoui, Madjid Bougherra, Nadir Belhadj, Rafik Halliche, Rafik Saifi, Ryad Boudebouz, Samir Nasri, Yazid Mansouri

[Demon Revival]

It looks Italian.

Karim Ziani is half French but could pass as a 100% Algerian without any problem. And yes the others are clearly coastal Algerians. And this is the team from 2010, not from 2014 :p
This mix seems accurate to me although people are a bit less tanned than this example. But good :thumb001:

well as algeria was a french colony, some mixes could have happened.. french had surely some local lovers.. it's Always like that during colony time

i think he looks well algerian this morph :)

so you say he's more coastal algerian?

Actually Algerians didn't mixed with French during the colonisation except few rare cases. Karim Ziani lives in France and Algerians mixing with French in France is not something atypical and quite common :) so Algerian-French mix is recent and didn't really existed during the colonisation.
Yes he looks like a coastal Algerian but he's just a bit overtanned than average although this skintone in the example is common.

There is no "coastal" VS interior dichotomy in the region.

[Tooting Carmen]

There is no "coastal" VS interior dichotomy in the region.

There is - the interior tends to have more SSA admixture than the coast.

[MsSPF]

There is actually. I visited most Algerian coasts and I've been to doors of the desert (Biskra and its areas), I can assure you there is CLEARLY a difference.
I've been to Agadir in Morocco (doors of the desert), CLEARLY a difference.

[Gaston]

There is - the interior tends to have more SSA admixture than the coast.

Actually, the interior is more likely to have less African because Arabian admixture is only detected there (no suprise, Arabians were from an arid place). As for the outliers made by people with recent West African ancestry, aren't they de facto excluded from these experiments? Nobody would post an Antillais as part of the French landscape of phenotypes.

Besides, the term "coastal" is silly, 95% of the population in the Maghreb lives less than 100 miles from the sea/ocean.

Only in big cities like Oran and Algiers where small SSA community is not rare (slave trade+immigration from the south). If you go anywhere else in small cities or rural places in the coasts, nothing extraordinary, they are clearly not more SSA than other interior places.

she has quite normal fair skin, the male footballer was more dark skinned.. althought we already know that algerians are the fairest skinned north africans.. they live in the northern coast wich is the same latitude of southern spain more or less (like malaga for example) and also of the isles of greece like Crete

despite the skin she doesn tlook much european thought; the face is typically north african type i think

[Numidia]

There is many phenotypes that are typically algerian
Mixed people are in the desert most algerians are depigmented but fully north african
Footballers are not a good example, they come from disadvantaged areas they are used to be out and more exposed to the sun

There is a LOT of variation among Algerians in particular.

a good portion of them is normal pale skinned (not olive or a white skin with tanned colors) like my female morph, some of them were light brown haired-dark blond too. as there is clearlya inority of depigmented people in north africa

So is how regular North Africans look in Spain.

Had an algerian guy at highschool,looks about right.

[Sikeliot]

Not most, but some, Algerians (usually more the women than the men) look similar to extreme southwest Europeans, as well as Sicilian/Maltese.
