Yuya, a powerful Egyptian courtier. According to many researchers, his looks are atypical for ancient Egyptians - non-Egyptian, what's your opinion and can you classify him?

Very hard to classify a rotting corpse.

looks Anadolid(?). Anyway, some kind leptobrachymorph

Anatolid? He could be a Hittite, then?

I can imagine your feelings when you saw my "mummy"s pictures... you were like... poor girl :D:D

Well, I thought the tasks should get more difficult ;)

It's funny--he looks a little Faelish from the front--broad face, kind of squat, low vault, wide mouth..but then in profile, he looks rather Dinarid.

Tough one.

Anatolid. He was apparently of Near Eastern ancestry, at least that's what I read.
