Celtic, Scando, Germanic (North and South)

[Ánleifr]

Can someone post pics of modern day people who look like each of these groups?

Celtic (both light and dark)
Germanic (both light and dark)
Scandinavian (both light and dark)

Its not as specific as you make it sound, and "Celtic" and "Germanic" encompass broad ethnic regions, and in some areas there have been mixing between the two types.

That said there are stereotypical "Celtic" and "Germanic" looks, but there are many different variants within the confines of the regions that can be classified as "Celtic", "Celto-Germanic", or "Germanic."

Also Scandinavia is a region that is Germanic predominantly, and is probably one of the purest Germanic regions in the world other than for Denmark, Northern Germany, and parts of the Netherlands.

thanks, I just mean in general terms. I am having a hard time when I pass someone on the street deciphering if they look Germanic or Celtic, I am having a hard time telling these two apart.

Scandinavia- (Brunn,Borreby,Hallstatt Nordid,Tronder etc)------------> Vikings---------->Normans------------> England,Ireland & Scotland.

Ice age Scandinavia---------- (Paleo Atlantid)-------- > Ireland---- Scotland--- Wales------England-----France.

Gaul-------Keltic Nordid-----------France---Netherlands---England--Scotland---Ireland---Iceland.

Alpine-------Germany,Switzerland,France,Italy,England,Scotland, Ireland,Wales etc.

Anglo Saxon------- (Anglo-Saxon,Borreby)--- Germany---England--Ireland--Scotland.

Pretty much............

Ok, thank you. So what you are saying is to go by phenotype when deciding between Germanic and Celtic. The only problem with that is there is to much overlap in your examples. The same phenotype can be for both types and vice-versa.

I think Denmark is the most Germanic of the Scandinavian countries, the rest of Scandinavia is more like Germanicized Mesolithic North Europeans.

See, this is the perfect example....If their origin was unknown how would you be able to tell if they were Germanic or Celtic?

You can't really as there were Paleo Atlantid and Tydal Vikings with darker hair and red and blonde haired Celt. Not just dark haired Celt and light haired Viking or Anglo Saxons. Just look at all of the different sub groups people post and you can find tags for them with many examples.

Interesting thread.

Some "dark" or dark haired Swedes who still look very Swedish to me. Idk how typical they would be in Norway or Denmark though.
