He looks like one of those very depigmented and admixed African Americans who would historically try (and sometimes be able) to pass as white.

shell out moroccan

[Sikeliot]

He does look black admixed, at least.

[MarkyMark]

De-pigmented Egyptid + Berid

[Sikeliot]

De-pigmented Egyptid + Berid

** Berberid

Berids don't exist in North Africa although they're an offshoot of Berberid.

De-pigmented Egyptid + Berid

Could you explain what Egyptid means
& BTW Egyptians can have different colors of skin from dark brown to pale it is not like rare or any thing
& i agree of the berid part.

i did not claim he is white neither he does.

Egyptid is pretty much an intermediate of South Med and Aethiopid.

I.e a stabilized blend of these two types:

He looks Alpine, I don't think he has black admixture. Btw beware that in Egypt there are a lot of light types that are indeed whites, the majority is brown or middle east looking with a lot of black african admixture in the south due to slave trade.
This guy could pass easily in most european countries IMO, but I may be wrong.
The two additional pics of egyptians(IMO) show a darker than average guy (with clear black admixture) and a lighter than average girl(for Egypt)

[sgillespie]

i did not claim he is white neither he does.

to me he looks white and egyptians are mainly caucasoids, he is not your typical egyptian though.

[Sikeliot]

^^ Those were an Ethiopian and a Moroccan. If you combine the two you get the Egyptid type.

I don't think the man in the first post fits in Europe at all tbh.

These pictuers are not for egyptians they are for sure Ethiopians

[Sikeliot]

Someone asked me to say what the Egyptid type is.. it's a mixture of a North African Caucasoid type and an Arabid-influenced East African type.

[Amun]

believe his look is not quite striking you can find his types in middle

here is how average egyptian look like

[sgillespie]

and anyways you can find types like that Ethiopian in Egypt, even darker, in Holland (don't ask me why, I don't know) I met many black egyptians and believe me you can mistake them easily for any sub-saharian nationality or African Americans.
I don't know, but the main guy in the thread does not strike me as a North African, I really would place it in Europe, I met similar types around Europe, but you never know.

[Amun]

The east african component is visible in (luxor and aswan) southern parts of egypt. but you can not generalize this because egypt is diverse enough and you can find lighter types with less E-A admixture

[Sikeliot]

Yeah that is what I meant. There is a general difference from Luxor northward versus southward, right?

Those could be nubians they can easly have Visas to Europe sicene they can play oppression card.
but they do not exceed 6 million out of a population of 90 million

Not all darkskinned Egyptians aredescendants of SSA-slaves. There are darkskinned minorities living in Southern Egypt like the Nubians or the Beja people.

yes that what i am saying
these are examples averge delta people look

Yes. but they do not represent over 1-2% of the whole populations

[Sikeliot]

The original Nubians of ancient times would have been from modern South Sudan. And would have been much blacker than today's Nubians.

No i do not believe because so nubians have their own phenotype & whe Amr ibn El A'as conquered egypt , he did agreement with nubians & actually islam only did not reach these areas until 13th centuary.
the average South sudanese is propley the blackist group on earth

Aegyptid + Berid

Berid/Berberid + Aegyptid.

[Smeagol]

You'd think so, the way they depicted them, but there were hair studies done on the lower Nubians that concluded the hair was mixed, but slightly more Caucasian.

[Mn The Loki TA Son]

Egyptid-Berid+Alpine.

[1stLightHorse]

Looks like a depigmented Mulatto.

[Sharkeatpeople]

Berberid-Aegyptid

[fyoosha]

Probably one of those Egyptians with Circassian ancestry.

[randomguy1235]

Probably one of those Egyptians with Circassian ancestry.

I doubt it. He looks Aegyptid, just depigmented/very light by random genetic chance.

[Peter Nirsch]

albino-egyptoid.

[Odelia]

Asiatic alpine and egyptid...passes as a light skinned african american
