Classify Polish-looking Albanian

[Peterski]

On a Polish forum one user wrote that Sebino Plaku "looks to me like half of all Poles*":

He used to play for a Polish team and apparently nobody suspected he is a foreigner:

*I wonder which half, R1a or Non-R1a? :p

[Peterski]

Sebino looks like Typowy Seba (Typical Sebix).

[Bogdan]

CM + Gorid.

[Viridian1]

Wow, really looking polish. The one phenotype I am sure here is gorid but he comes with something else.

[Hulu]

My money is on him being ev13

[me99]

North Pontid/Gorid

Sebino Plaku would best be classified as Carpathid in my opinion, one of these Dinaroform faces which can literally fit from Albania to Poland.

I wouldn't necessarily call him Polish looking or at least not what i imagine as a typical Pole which is clearly more Baltid leaning.

Typical Poles do not have to be 'more Baltid leaning' for them to be typical.

This Albanian passes as Polish, but I personally would not call him very Polish looking.

The majority of Poles to some degree have Baltid influence so i would say it's the main predominant type.

No, thats really far from the truth.

[safinator]

No, thats really far from the truth.

Maybe not the majority but definitely Baltid influences is the most diffused among major types, every anthropologist has noted this.

[Ülev]

that was me, who said he looks quite Polish, this is better phenotype than all those Uralo-Baltische :rolleyes:

[Dick]

It’s no secret that Polaks and Albanians are blood brothers. Davidski hides the fact in his calculators. You can meet me behind the Walmart for fisticuffs if you say different.

[chociprasa]

He looks more Albanian imo.

You can also tell by their folk costumes. Most of them probably have one or two Shpejtim in their bloodline.

I agree.

[Jana]

Definitely not, unless you think average Albanian is east-central European looking.
That being said he doesn't look specifically Polish, just a generic central Euro Slav face. Could be Hungarian as well.

Gorals & Albanian connection :D

I'm not sure what's so Central European looking about him, he looks Balkan/Albanian. I've never seen a Pole or a Hungarian with his type of looks. Wide neurocranium with a narrower jaw, quite shallow set eyes, longer/taller face, narrow mouth with small teeths etc. Those all all more Balkan features than Central European/West Slavic ones.

I could post group pictures of Poles (not sure whether there is any point in that though) and you will surely find some, but never the majority as any textbook types. In our neighbours like Belarussians it is 2x+ more common btw.
