I don't know how to properly classify but I would have guessed British Isles or just about anywhere in Northern/central/Western Europe.

Thanks for posting these Sami wax figures. :)

First one seems to be borreby and second could be nordid+keltic

Peder Rik: Slightly Alpinized-Faelid, but seems to be a combination of Strandid/Faelid, with more of an emphasis on Faelid with additional Nordid influences.

I think the framework and look of this wax head casting resembles Oliver Kahn a bit, but this could be a misperception.

Anyway the head casting looks quite distinctly Scandinavian to me, and has a pseudo-Borreby look, due to being a slightly Alpinized/Strandid-Faelid.

Nils Karasjok: Nordo-Cro-Magnon predominantly.
