[Óttar]

Same subrace as Sam Elliot + more Med.

Medo-Keltic Nordic ? I'm a bit rusty on 19th century anthropology.

[Don]

He fits anywhere in Europe, but in particular in western countries in my opinion.

Like him. Western Europe Spaniard or french or old British breed.



Anyway, I thought the manliest man was this:

[Absinthe]

Keltic-Atlantomed sounds about right

[Agrippa]

I think he is closer to Sean Connery than Sam Elliot, though that can be discussed.

He seems to have a Cromagnid component (Palaeatlantid? Dalofaelid?) - but Nordatlantid-Keltic Nordic is dominant.

[Bard]

ahah I was just thinking about his classification a pair of days ago (there was magnum p.i. on tv), he really rocks
btw I stick to Agrippa's classification, he is a med only apparently
selleck is quite tall too, 1.92m

[Svanhild]

One of the very few man who look better with moustache. :wink

[Matritensis]

The hair is maybe too dark for that,but his face would be very at home in Norway or Sweden.Nothing Med about him in my opinion.

[Osweo]

What do we know about his background? Just looks 'normal' to me, i.e. 'Isles', maybe with a bit of German shoved in?
Wiki just has this;

Selleck was born in Detroit, Michigan, the son of Martha S. (née Jagger),[1] a homemaker, and Robert D. Selleck, an executive and real estate investor.[2][3] The family moved to Sherman Oaks, Los Angeles, California when Selleck was growing up. His siblings include brothers Robert (born 1944) and Daniel (born 1950), and sister Martha. Selleck graduated from Grant High School in 1962.[4]
IMDb has nothing more.

God damn; just looking at him raises my testosterone... I swear the back of my hands just got hairier.


BUT....

NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!

Looks a bit like Michael Palin of the Pythons to me in some way. KN-Palaeoatlantid sort of thing?

There was an interview somewhere on Youtube where he mentions being Scottish and German.

[Bard]

Slovakian and Scottish :)

what would the ethnicity/nationality of his parents
(or his) have to do with his taxonomic category/anthropologic classification?

does religion or political borders
have a necessary connection to morphology and coloration?

Not too much, I'm just curious though. It's nice to know what sort of types are found in which countries, for one, and a little trivia on old Magnum might come in useful some day (you never know - :D - pub quizzes, etc... I have a friend making films in LA, I might even meet the bloke some day)! Additionally, I have a general curiosity for the ethnic make-up of US Americans, and the bigger picture only comes from knowing a lot of little specific ones. :thumbs up

A clear case is a case, but really clear cases are not the those which are debated mostly and in unclear cases which are mixed and show different tendencies, it might help a lot to narrow the search down to whats more likely.

F.e. in some cases there are at least 2 options for a trait, now if you know where a person is coming from, one option becomes much more likely because of what we know about the respective population.

F.e. if he would be completely Russian, Palaeatlantid is a less likely option than with his Scottish ancestry obviously.

Without knowing the background, the untypical mixtures might let us to very strange conclusions.

F.e. there are Melanesids which look like African Negrids, not too much, but some exist. Once a well known anthropological expert was presented Palaemelanesid which looked pseudo-Kafrid and he classified him as such. Obviously that was just similarity, not identity of racial qualities, because of the respective ancestry.

The genetic background, ancestry can always be a great help in narrowing the search down.

[Franz]

Eastalpinid/Atlantomediterranid

[Aviane]

Alpinid with Atlantid.

[The Black Prince]

Wether he has Eastern-European looks or not, mr. Selleck is basically a dark haired version of this fellow:

Stephen McHattie: Kelto-Saxon predominantly.

Tom Selleck: Paleo-Atlantid with an additional Atlanto-Nordid influence, which might range from strong to standard.

[Silver Lining]

LOL @ those classifications again.

Tom Selleck is obviously Alpine, just very masculine and stretched out.

[CommonSense]
