[Gunslinger]

Uraloid

[Artek]

archaic, dark pigmented Cromagnoid(id?) type.
Palaeatlantid? Dunno, just speculating

[Pallantides]

Uraloid

Rofl get out of here...

I think he looks like a "Tydal" type.

[leisitox]

Finally an individual to use the STRANDID subrace :D, ages of not using the term and not having an individual to do that, extremly rare individuals.
In a hypothesis is like a alpinized tydal type, just reduced.

Pred. strandid individual.
http://www.theapricity.com/snpa/index2.htm, link in SNPA to the subrace of the western Norwegian coast, just search strandid.

[Suvorov]

He is a kind of centaur.Half man,half chess:)Best Norway ambassador.Only 21 years old but alredy one of the best chess player ever.http://www.nettavisen.no/imagecache/parameter/?upsizable=true&action=resize&width=506&height=-1&url=http://pub.tv2.no/multimedia/na/archive/00786/magnus_carlsen_li_7868233x4.jpg

@Pallantides

You had better open your eyes wider and look at these photos of Khanty-Mansi people.
If you are not blind, you will see a huge resemblance between them and this Norwegian.

^I think you're the one who's blind. I don't see whatsoever resemblance between them.

[Leshy]

Tydal + borreby

Who? Khanty-Mansi?

[Dr. van Winkle]

Borreby + Uralid.

If he really were one of the so called Tydals, then he would be dolichocephalic, which he is clearly not.

Russian actor Sergei Bodrov Jr, his mirror image?

Bodrov's great grandmother was an ethnic Buryat. The Buryats are pred. Tungid Mongolids and the major northernmost subgroup of the Mongols.

[Saar]

Tydal + borreby

To me, that guy reminds Matt Damon a little bit

[Pallantides]

If not Tydal then I think he is Strandid.

An alternate hypothesis involves the alpinization of a Tydal population

There is no way in hell someone from Tønsberg are Uralid, if so it really shows that pyshical anthroplogy is psuedo science, since there is no connection between Vestfold and Uralic peoples.:D

Scandinavians might have intermingled with the Sami from very early times onwards.

I remember a study which has shown that the dental traits of ancient Scandinavians from a certain region resembled that of the Sami people.

[Aviane]

Tydal/Borreby.

He could fit in other parts of Scandinavia, The Netherlands, Belguim, Northern France, Scotland, England, Germany, and a lesser extent Eastern Europe.

You are an American, but I'm an expert on German variation since I live here and I have been to most of these European countries during vacations. Couldn't disagree more.

He would fit into the eastern parts of Russia and when even Gunslinger - an ethnic Russian - thinks so, it's probably true.

For a western Russian he is too dark and not Nordid enough. :p

[Pallantides]

Gunslinger is daft...

I'm not American but rather British and I have too been to most of these myself and he wouldn't look out of place in most or if not all.

[leisitox]

NO doubt that he is a textbook strandid from now days.
Agree Pallandines :D?

[Gunslinger]

If not Tydal then I think he is Strandid.

Carlsen looks even more Uralic compared with this textbook example of Uralic Race:

@Pallantides

Try to be more open-minded and look at the people around you, look at the mirror at last.
There are quite a few Uraloids, Lappoids, or whatever you call them in Norway.
It's hard to distinguish them sometimes.

[Pallantides]

Scandinavians might have intermingled with the Sami from very early times onwards.


I do not doubt that, but I don't think Uralid types have ever been the dominant phenotype among the Saami, at least in modern Saami the majority appear to be Nordid-Lappid-CM-Baltid intermediates with pure Uralid and Lappid types being much rarer.

[rashka]

Tronder-Alpine-CM

[leisitox]

Tronder-Alpine-CM

Pred. strandid please :coffee:

[GeistFaust]

Basically a Tydal type, perhaps slightly Alpinized.

[Cristiano viejo]

Someone was ahead of me :thumb001:
Today I saw a news of him and thought "they willclassify him in Apricity, has a strange look for to be Norwegian".

[Jackson]

Looks sort of Tydal + Brunn to me, but then i don't know these types very well yet.

[oh-nahhh]

Tydal/Strandid.

[aherne]

Uralid, dark version. That's exactly how dark Finns look like (since Uralids, as all CroMagnids, contain a relatively dark-pigmented minority, although the majority is super-light)

[Kess]

cm+uralid

[Pansarkamrat]

Paleo-Atlantid+Uralid.

[Kess]

He is quite mongoloid looking for an Norwegian

SM-N920C cihazımdan Tapatalk kullanılarak gönderildi

[Lousianaboy]

nordid aryan, he reminds me to the ancient stories from romans about the germanic people, extremely blonde, light, blue eyed, strong and wide shoulders, tall, long skulled

[chociprasa]

Uralid. They (together with the Lappids, Ladogans and the other west Siberian European types) constitute the 'dark' Norwegian and Swedish population together with the various Atlantid/Mediterranean forms.

[Voyt]

Eyes = Turkic
skull structure = Borreby
also looks like some caucasus admixture but that could be convergent

[leo_]

tydal

[Odelia]

Cut off that tydal, uraloid, mongoloid, strandid bullshit.

He looks Iberian. Alpinised atlanto med. Pretty cute for a Norwegian
