Keltic Nordid + Alpine

He classified himself as Northwestern type:

Basically, a Nordic-Mediterranean mix with Upper Paleolithic elements.

Am I the only one who thinks he looked kind of Balkan Slav?

[Zroota]

Noric + Alpine

We just went so Meta.. :cool:

I think he looks Germanic.. but I can kind of see what you mean.. if I were to make the argument that he could pass as Balkan Slav, I would reference the Serbian actor below:

Yes Northwestern is correct, although I believe the type did have some degree of Alpine admixture which is important to remember. I believe that Northwestern (as devised by Coon and Deniker) = Nordo-Mediterranean + Alpine, and the so called Keltic type or Keltic-Nordic = Nordo-Mediterranean + Dinaric.

Coon writes about the Northwestern type:


4. Northwest European--Most of Scandinavia, much of the British Isles, Northern France, the Benelux countries, and northwest Germany is inhabited by a population characterized by medium to tall stature, medium build, brown hair, mixed or blue eyes, light skin, straight to wavy hair of moderate abundance, and facial features intermediate between the fine chiselling of the Nordic or Mediterranean and the broader, fleshier Alpine (Plate 2). As types in this population one finds Nordics, Mediterraneans, and stocky, large-headed, broad-faced, often hairy individuals who may have such paleanthropic characters as large teeth and heavy brow ridges. This third type apparently recapitulates in some degree the pre-agricultural population of this region. Western Irish, Scots, Norwegians from the central coast, Swedes from new Goteberg, and certain other local groups deviate strongly in the direction of this type.

Coon writes about the Keltic-Nordic:


Keltic Iron Age type, which was a mixture of Nordic with Dinaric elements. ... mesocephalic and low-vaulted, with a prominent nose. ... On the whole, the Kelts were a mixed group in race as in culture; their ancestry includes both long heads of some central European Nordic type, which was in turn a combination of several Mediterranean sub-types, and brachycephals from the region in southwestern Germany in which the Dinarics of Early Bronze Age introduction had blended with earlier round heads of Mesolithic origin.

I have plans to make a long and detailed post, almost like a mini essay, about the nature of dark and even fair haired Nordic and Mediterranean mixes, including the false concepts of the "Atlantid" and "North Atlantid" (both creations of Lundman), and to clarify just what the Northwestern type, as well as the Keltic-Nordic type really are. Including many citations from Coon, Deniker, and Hooton when needed, but most likely primarily Coon and Deniker as I tend to think their writing is the most grounded and based upon true study and real world analysis.

Essentially, I will be delving into the topic of the Nordo-Mediterranean mixes that are seen primarily in W and NW Europe that have a lot of people confused and still using false and outdated terms. I feel like this is an area that needs a great deal of clarification on.

This post will happen whenever I have the time and motivation to do so. Anyone can contribute to it with well sourced information that I will credit them for giving.

I wonder, each time one of us classifies the late Mr. Coon in this thread, might he in turn raise a cup to him or her in the halls of Valhalla..

Alpine Kelto Nord. Wikipedia, largely woke infiltrated, trashed him, not that I agree with all his conclusions, but the man was a monumental scholar who accumulated more data for his profession than anyone before him. I guarantee if a public monument exists with his name or likeness, the communists will have it removed.

He had browridges and chin projection. Face looked long
Also low eye orbits and hooded eyes. May have been some cro-magnon type mostly.

Yes, he was at the time. Many of his hypotheses were proven at least somewhat correct. He had no access to genetics and yet managed to predict a lot of what was later confirmed. He had to work with what was known back then. Of course his research had a lot of flaws, but for example aether was the commonly accepted concept among the most renowned physicists for quite a while.

True, although the main merit of Coon wasn't accumulating data, but interpreting the gigantic amount of data collected by other anthropologists and beautifully synthesizing it into a cohesive whole.
