Who is the most Albanian looking member you have seen on this forum? Only Albanian members can be voted for.
IceT looked very Albanian to me.
IceT looked very Albanian to me.
IceT is indeed very Albanian looking. That typical dinarid look.
But not all Albos look Dinarid.
I'll vote Dibran
I didn't see any dinaric members, maybe influences

Who's most dinarid shouldn't be first and most important criterion of who looks most Albanian, lol, Albanians are not only Dinarid but have wide range of looks who can be said to be typical aswell such as Dinaro-Pontid, Dinaro-Alpine, Dinaro-Med, Pontid-Alpine, Pontid, etc.

What exactly makes you think that is the criterion though?
You pretty much voted for a morhpologically Dinaric person yourself.
Almost all the classifications you have provided there are pseudo science btw.
Many native Indians, germans, yugoslavs, caucasians, west asians are Dinaric that does not mean they fit as Albanian so of course the criterion of who looks most Albanian isnt who is most Dinaric... but by your logic they look Albanian too..its just who looks most Albanian. although most Albanians do have common characteristics that can be recognized weather they look Albanian or not specifically.

Because there were two members who think dinarid as guide for most typical albo look, that's simply wrong, there's more than blunt dinarid face search to say x or y member is most Albanian, Albanians are not only Dinarid nor pure Dinarid either, there are many components in play for an Albanian look, even Drawing Slim ain't textbook dinarid, and it wasn't a classification but I just stated that other phenotypes which you regard pseudo-science can make someone's look typically Albanian. (principally you're right to call whole phenotype thing a pseudo-science but this should apply to dinarid aswell)

Many South Slavs have Dinarid look too, in fact Bosniaks, Montenegrins are more pure Dinarid than Albanians to begin with.

nope dinarid was brought up i said i didnt see any (i meant pure types), same if arabid was brought up, i would comment. but I forgot how most members looks like actually

03-13-2018, 10:00 PM
in fact Bosniaks, Montenegrins are more pure Dinarid than Albanians to begin with.
No, they are not.
The Montenegrins, after a detailed examination, are seen to be far from typical Dinarics in many features; they are too large-bodied, too large-headed, and too broad-faced; their noses are too frequently broad and thick-tipped. They are also far too rufous for the ordinary Dinaric type. Taking the Montenegrins individually, one finds many who do conform to standard Dinaric specifications, but are all taller than most Dinarics elsewhere; there are also some short, thick-set Alpines, and a minority of tall, brunet dolichocephals or near dolichocephals whom we shall also find farther south in Albania. But the Montenegrin of distinctive type, concentrated in Old Montenegro, is a very tall, large-bodied man, with a large, full-vaulted head abbreviated at the rear; his face is very broad, his jaw heavy, his brows overhanging, and his nose large and thick-tipped. It is this type which bears the rufosity in hair color, the freckling, and a tendency to light-mixed eye color. Most of the Montenegrins are intermediate between this type and a more conventional Dinaric.
This is taken from Carleton Coons Races of Europe.
Here is some more,
The Georgians, with a high incidence of concave noses, as well as the greatest blondism, are the most nearly Danubian; except for the Cherkesses, most of the other peoples are more Dinaric. On the whole, the Dinaricism of the Caucasian area is only partial; there are too many unaltered Mediterraneans, and too many Alpine-Danubian mixtures, which, here as in Croatia and Slovenia, fail to assume a Dinaric facial form, to make the Caucasus as Dinaric a country as the Tyrol or Albania.
On account of its reputation as a Dinaric racial center, the Tyrol has been the subject of many special investigations.68 The Tyrol in the geographical and ethnic sense includes the upper valley of the Inn, which served historically as a highroad of Germanic invasion over the Alps, and the smaller mountain valleys on either side of the Alpine chain. A branch of the Inn, the river Wipp, leads directly to the Brenner Pass and down into Italy. The Tyrol was not settled until the Metal Age; the first inhabitants who came in any numbers were Atlanto-Mediterraneans from northern Italy, and Dinarics both from southern Germany and from Italy. In Hallstatt times, however, the population increased, and the Rhaetians, later to become Romanized, developed as an ethnic unit under Hallstatt cultural tutelage. The Ladin speakers of the side valleys of the Italian Tyrol are today in most respects good representatives of the pre-Roman Rhaetians, while the Germanicizing and Italicizing of the others has been only partial in all respects other than in language. The Dinaric racial type has had, in the Tyrol, a complete continuity from the Bronze Age to the present.

I have only met one member who lives close to me.
Taxonomy in beginning was somewhat like hobby for me but I do not actually take serious anymore, so yeah, pretty much every classification you heard here are meaningless and not accurate, you can't classify a guy with three shitty pics, if you want an accurate classification you'll need someone who actually studied anthropology to take measurements of your head, but who does this in current days.

Post a pic of yourself, I only saw one a long long time ago I think it was leaked (oops :D)
I have had two opposite experiences;
Once in a restaurant I heard some Albanian guys saying 'I bet she's Albanian'. another time I was sitting in an Albanian cafe and some guy was talking to me in English and thought I was Eastern european and I told him where I was from he was surprised. So it depends, maybe we will think you look typical.
I mostly get Italian Greek or Spanish(Spain). Only Albanians and sometimes Yugos point out Albanian. But alot of people here in America are oblivious to other cultures, so its only natural they would guess me for our neighbors.

Well its better to see someone face-to-face to get accurate impression of them. No pic editing, no bad lighting. It's also why the whole taxonomy section is useless tbh. I have noticed some members edit their pics and ask for classify...
I have only met one member who lives close to me.
Where are you from? Outside of the Fatherland that is lol.

Lol yes. To say the least. All of Has is in London.

Are you originally from Has? Are you from Gash I gurit?
I remember Carleton Coon mentioned Ghegs from Has had like a brunette white skin or darkest skin among all Ghegs.
The darkest hair was also found in the North East and brownest eyes.
Blondest Ghegs were found in the South and in the West.
Interesting considering what you said about your appearence too. I have seen some Kosovars who fall into that category and have some relatives that do too.

Yh I remember that people from the Zadrima region of Shkodra were described as blond, my paternal grandmothers family are Zadrimor. I too have relatives who are swarthy

In recent years that Albos from Greece are getting Greek citizenship are moving to London like crazy. So probably nowdays there are Albos from each corner.

Paternally from Has, maternally from Drenica (further back im maternally from Nish (grandmother) and malesor shkodran (mothers grandfather).
My paternal grandfather died when my father was in the woumb, and my paternal grandmother had to be hastily remarried because no one would consider marrying a widowed mother at that time. So when my father was born, he took the surname of his mothers new husband and everyone in the village thought that my father was this new mans son. So my surname is not acutally mine. Hadmy grandfather not died, then my surname would be Moreli. Moreli simply means someone from Peleponessos in turkish. So my best guess for my appearance is that i stem paternally from Peleponessos. And when looking at people from there, i see a lot of my appearance in them.
