Never implied you were. Sikeliot had an agenda of making Lebanese seem like they were just southern europeans (even though only a minority can pass in southern europe). You are clueless if you think Lebs look more Euro than Turks. You could have just said 'I don't know shit' and we wouldn't be having this discussion.

Well I would say definitelly MENA, I have seen many Turks in my local city and when I was tourist.
But in TA and soap opera there are posted only white looking Turks, what is kinda funny. I aint saying there arent enough Turks with such a look, but in general MENA is much stronger, especially in central/south or eastern Turkey. Places like Izmir or Istambul or some cities on north can have white looking population.

Turks's phenotypes can vary a lot. Some of them can hold some turanid traits; other show mediterranean/armenoid/balkan traits. I guess - with my minimun knowledge about this topic - that doesn't exist an unique or typical phenotype to represent them. Turks on TA can explain it better than everybody.

Ladies and gentlemen, I am just gonna state the obvious: we have OWD-ism in our midst. Eastern Turks are almost equally as "brown" as Levantines and Mesopotamians. And, most Europeans don't really see us any different from each other (this forum is proof and even you have came across such Europeans who think we all look Arabs). So just don't go there and have this embarrassing superiority complex, bub. It ain't working. Lmao.

It seems like you are equating Anatolid and Cap Meds with Turkish people? Who said it's a type belonging to Turks only? Um FYI, Assyrians, Kurds and Armenians have ancestry in the Anatolia region as well. So when I classify a few darker types as Anatolid, I'm not connoting that Turks are "brown". :picard1:

South Asians, at least the 'whiter' ones posted here, do indeed look Anatolid (if you didn't know, that's Armenoid + Med). Not sure why there's a problem with that? That doesn't mean they "look Turkish" FFS. I'm not sure why you're so triggered by me using these eastern phenotypes on Asiatic peoples. So triggered that you started to antagonise me badly, when I actually thought you were one of the more amicable users in here. Not sure what went into you and why you changed drastically.

Besides, I think Greeks and Balkan people would also be 'offended' and put off by you as well for classifying every, even slightly, Med looking folk from Turkey and Iran as "Pontid". Honestly, it's gotten so repetitive. No matter how eastern shifted they look, they are always "Pontids". This reeks OWD-ism. But I don't hate you for it. I don't take classification seriously where I would smear people just because they use the wrong classifications. But we must get a life? Okay.

I have always said that Turks, especially those from the western portion, are the whitest west Asians due to their geography. So we can put that aside. With that being said, your photos are questionable. Are some of them at least taken in Ankara or any eastern cities of Turkey? If they're all snaps from Istanbul, then of course the individuals in them will be pretty white and therefore your post will be unfair. Just saying.

I believe that this is a fair representation of Turks. A nice and appropriate mixture of Meds, Alpines, Taurids, Anatolids and Turanids. Not too light, not too dark. Hopefully nobody will say it's cherrypicked because a few don't look too European. :picard1:

1. "Anatolia" ends in Sivas, most of the East portion of the country/"Kurdistan"/"Assyria" is not part of Anatolia.
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/aa/AnatolieLimits.jpg

2. You look desperate to lump us with semites. Put in you head that "Eastern Turks" have nothing to do with Levantines, neither genetically or phenotypically. My country is being flooded with Arabs, and your average Levantine refugee stand out like a sore thumb in most of the regions of the country. Any user from Turkey here will agree with me.

3. Cope. You keep passing South-Asian and gypsies as Turkish, but when someone talk about Assyrians you reply the person saying that he/she can't talk about your people because he/she doesn't know how Assyrians look like:

Please don't speak for my people. You have no idea how we look like.

4. How do you know that the photos i posted were from Western Turkey? There's no much difference regarding most regions of the countries. You clearly don't know any shit about Turkey and keep talking as you live there. I posted photos from Southern Turkey (https://www.theapricity.com/forum/showthread.php?272188-Iranid-Dinarid-In-which-regions-this-mix-is-found&p=5688659&viewfull=1#post5688659) already.

Oh gee, looks like I made someone so emotional and butturt. My, my.

So saying a few Turks can be dark (and I never did actually if you had good comprehension skills), I am talking shit about your people? You are a comedian, honestly. Unlike you, I don't view "brown" negatively. You think, because somebody says "this person/group is swarthy", they are "talking shit" and are "trolls", when in fact they are not speaking ill or degrading brown skin. Not everyone has a Hitler complex, you see. And also, please educate yourself on the difference between ethnic groups and phenotypes. I know you're confusing ethnicity with phenotypes for sure.

And you are always classifying Iranians and as well as 'darker', Armenid-influenced eastern Anatolians as "Pontid". But nobody really cares either way. People don't take this shit seriously, like you do. Stop taking all this to your heart and grow some thick skin. Lmao. Why are you pissed off that Europeans are classified with MENA phenotypes? You're not even European. So why speak for them? You're such an Uncle Tom. :cool:

It depends on the sources. I am aware that many geographical references don't include eastern Turkey as part of 'Anatolia'. Some do (like the image below). Some don't. I honestly couldn't care less. My people are Mesopotamian for the most part anyway.

2. You look desperate to lump us with semites. Put in you head that "Eastern Turks" have nothing to do with Levantines, neither genetically or phenotypically. My country is being flooded with Arabs, and your average Levantine refugee stand out like a sore thumb in most of the regions of the country. Any user from Turkey here will agree with me.
Nobody lumped Semites with Turks and nobody said they look the same. You are extremely delusional. And again, you are conflating ethnic groups with phenotypes. Not sure which posts of mine you have been reading. Besides, what you said really echoes nationalistic German view of Turks, who are apparently flooding their country as well, assaulting women, etc. Please stop being pompous. People, especially Europeans, also view your ethnicity negatively, and would lump you with West Asians more so than they do with Europeans. Funnily, I actually never did and I have always stated Turks looked mostly southern Europe. So that's why I think you are really delusional and got me wrong heavily. Perhaps because I use Anatolid on Iranians and 'white-looking' Pakistanis? Okay... :picard1:


3. Cope. You keep passing South-Asian and gypsies as Turkish, but when someone talk about Assyrians you reply the person saying that he/she can't talk about your people because he/she doesn't know how Assyrians look like:
Yep, my point is thus proved; You are blatantly conflating phenotypes with ethnic groups. Not sure about gypsies, but I have classified "West Asian looking" South Asians, posted by lameduck, as Anatolids. The person may be nitpicking the most 'white' looking Pakistanis, but they indeed turn out to possess more Med features and I cannot see them as "Indid". I am not biased. As ethnicities go, I have said they pass as Assyrian, Lebanese or Kurdish. Never brought up Turks, bub. That's a figment of your imagination and paranoia. Please upskill your comprehension abilities. I am amazed at how wrong you got me.


4. How do you know that the photos i posted were from Western Turkey? There's no much difference regarding most regions of the countries. You clearly don't know any shit about Turkey and keep talking as you live there. I posted photos from Southern Turkey (https://www.theapricity.com/forum/showthread.php?272188-Iranid-Dinarid-In-which-regions-this-mix-is-found&p=5688659&viewfull=1#post5688659) already.
Uh what? I just asked if your examples were from other regions as well and not one region, like Istanbul (since it's the populous capital). And so they are not it seems. There's a big difference between asking and knowing, bub. And really, if you have this pontificated attitude about your country, I don't think people will like you, Mr ambassador. :coffee:


Here photos from a province close to Levant, you liar:
SNIP
What exactly did I lie about? Asking is not lying. What planet are you from man? Lmao. I am getting sick of your constant false accusations and grotty arrogance.


Ps: you cry because of a downvote but apparently keep sending your friend Nazarene thumbing down my posts and upvoting your trollish posts. Laughable.
Nah man, people just disagree with your dishonesty and finger-pointing. I will remove off the thumbs down, just to be fair with you.

Oh gee, looks like I made someone so emotional and butturt. My, my.

So saying a few Turks can be dark (and I never did actually if you had good comprehension skills), I am talking shit about your people? You are a comedian, honestly. Unlike you, I don't view "brown" negatively. You think, because somebody says "this person/group is swarthy", they are "talking shit" and are "trolls", when in fact they are not speaking ill or degrading brown skin. Not everyone has a Hitler complex, you see. And also, please educate yourself on the difference between ethnic groups and phenotypes. I know you're confusing ethnicity with phenotypes for sure.

Listen bub, I get people messaging me telling me how you whitewash Turks so badly. So don't throw it upon me.

If they're all snaps from Istanbul, then of course the individuals in them will be pretty white and therefore your post will be unfair. Just saying.

No one living in Istanbul is native to here, everyone is an immigrant from different provinces, and there are millions of Kurds (i'm not counting the refugees).

Istanbul is not whiter than any province at all. In Taksim you would feel like you're in Baghdad.

There is a difference between Eastern Turks and Eastern "Turks". Most Easternmost Turks live around Sivas - Maraş line, further East is Kurdish/Arab with exceptions

And Sivasspor is a cherrypicked team, it's a regional team from Sivas.

I never seen any Turk here pretending to be European either. Most who say such thing are people (generally Greeks and Eastern Europeans) who hate us. Genetically we are closer to other Turkics such as Tatars and Azeris.

Crowds of Turkish cities are these ones:

The distances show populations that you are closer to. Minimum distance means the closest population for you. That doesn't necessarily mean you are exactly the same as closest pop. For example, a Serbian can get Moldova as his closest pop. but that doesn't make him a Moldovan. Just means they are genetically similar to each others. So, genetically similar populations cluster with each others, for example a German would be closer to a Dutch rather than a Sicilian.

Every turk I have seen on T.V looks 100% euro and would pass almost anywhere in Europe so I would definitely say they look more European.

When i was holidaying in Bodrum, Kayseri and Antalya in 2020, most of the people I came across looked white with very minor Asian influence. In fact, the daughter of my hotel's owner in Bodrum was very typically Balkan looking.

In Cappadocia/Goreme, again, people were pretty white looking. You would not be able to distinguish them from Europeans.

Show some respect and leave the stupid historical or religious stuff behind. My ancestors have been in those lands for maybe 600 700 years.

700 years wow, what about Greeks who were there for 5000 years? You guys forced those people to exchange homes. Turkic people are not native to Anatolia therefore they are recent migrants to the place.

Turks have obsessions of being white like Indians, their soap opera is the best example.

Nevertheless, I don't mind Turks having their home Anataolia, but Constantinople doesn't belong to them neither tham much of west coast.

? I don’t deny Greeks also lived in Anatolia. But in history, everyone migrates from one place to another. If you say so, get the fuck out of the Pannonia.

There is no obsession and you Balkanites is not change Turkish genetic pool. There are many actors/actress with Balkan origin but also there are many actor/actress with Anatolian, Caucasus, Kurd or Arab origin. Btw Balkan Turk is already Turk like Anatolian Turk. Come Turkey and see nobody gives a fuck about whiteness, you will be no different from other people. And still I say, it’s not about assimilation or devshirme. :D

Düzyatan was born on 26 July 1979, in Karşıyaka, İzmir, Turkey,[3][4] to Mevlan and Gülşen Düzyatan.[5] Engin Altan Düzyatan began acting during his high school days. His parents were Turkish migrants from Yugoslavia.[6][7]

He doesn't look Albanian, I've seen many Albanians and he doesn't look it . He can certainly pass but he looks very Turkish . He's a Balkan Turk . I've never heard of an Albanian called Gulsen or altan let alone the surnsme Duzyatan .

Nope. Levantine results is more southern shifted than Turkish and also Levantine has SSA. Turkish people lack of SSA. Turkish results more like intermediate between Greek/Bulgarian and Armenian/Iranian with 5-15% mongoloid.


Levantines have no ssa dna. They’re more southern shifted bc they have no asiatic dna .
Yep and it's not just because Anatolia. Turkic people already has European admixture.

I don't know about English websites but in Turkish sources some say his ancestors Albanian, some say Balkan Turk from Yugoslavia.

"Arnavut asıllı olan Engin Altan Düzyatan Neslişah Alkoçlar ile evlidir."
"Engin Altan Düzyatan, who is of Albanian origin, is married to Neslişah Alkoçlar."

But probably he's Balkan Turk because I found this interview.

"İkisi de vazgeçmek istemiyorlar; ‘Engin Altan’ oluyor. Büyük dedemler, Yugoslavya’dan Türkiye’ye göçüyorlar. Yugoslavya’da doğan Türklerdeniz."

Never heard of Balkan Turks in Albania. I remember the turkish member of Bosnian background here who also claimed he is Turkish. Despite not even being Balkan Turk.

I would even go as far as saying there are no Turks from Albania.

It says his parents were from yugoslavia. Albania was never part of Yugoslavia but Kosovo was . I think those Turks from Albania either migrated to turkey or they got albanised .

I still don't think he is a Balkan Turk.


A study of a collection of Albanian folk songs, published in 1870s by Thimi Mitko, suggests that most Albanian speakers of his time identified themselves and each other through various terms and not a single national designation. Among other terms, Muslims were identified as turq or turkollarë ("Turks")

Turkey is a fucking melting pot nowadays. Actually it always was. Ottomans fucked a lot of people, from Asiatic types to Baltics, Near Easterners and Greeks. Turks are a mishmash of these ethnic groups. Their facial features kinda tell it! Not to mention a lot of them are Kurds as well!

Idc but "Turkish" is a nationality like Argentine and Brazilian, not an ethnicity! There are Turks of Levantine descent, of Kurdish descent, of Armenian descent, of Caucasus descent, Greek, Azeri, Iranian, Baltic, etc and etc....yadda yadda.....

Well, there´s may have some examples of euro looking turks, but genetically its different, they arent closer to any euro.

that's why I prefer genetics over phenotype.
