Pontid is not the Eastern version of Atlanto Mediterranid, in my opinion. It is because, Pontid has Gracile and softer features but Atlanto Mediterranid has coarser and sharper features. Most probably, Iranian Mediterranid would be the Eastern version of Atlanto Mediterranid.

Please discuss.

yes, i agree with you, i think Pontid (typical greek, some bulgarian and some turkish) has more gracile and even armenoid influence than atlantomed.
geographically, atlantomed is more westward, pontid is more eastward, and peaks in thrace and aegean sea.

in another thread, i post an italian man, some says he is atlantomed and some says he is pontid, i think atlantomed is more robust while pontid is more "slim". :picard1:
