Nùmmiru dui.

[Sikeliot]

Btw these are all from one province. Guess which :)

[alfieb]

Paliemmu

[Sikeliot]

Paliemmu

Yes. How did you figure?

[alfieb]

Diversity in phenotype is greatest there, and #4's motorcycle jacket.

[Sikeliot]

#2 doesn't look European to me. I am surprised you both picked him.

Personally I might have gone with #4 but I would have said #2 over most of the rest.

[Balmung]

2, 3, 4, 5 is what i stereotype as Sicilian.

[Sikeliot]

#3 isn't that common looking due to having Berid/Berberid looking features but he is part of the variation so I included him here too.

#1 is really pan-Italian looking, whereas #6 looks genuinely Northern European.

[alfieb]

Yeah, 3 does not look typical in Palermo. 1 and 6 do, but not elsewhere on the island.

2,4 are pan-Sicilian, 5 is very South/Western Sicilian.

[Sikeliot]

Where would you say each of them passes outside of Sicily?

I'd say #1 passes anywhere in Italy, #2 fits in the Levant, #3 looks Iberian, #4 is the typical 'Greek' look of eastern Sicily, #5 looks Levantine, and #6 can pass in Germany, Denmark, or Sweden.

#1 is very Italian
For #2, I voted (on your poll) Malta, Greece, Albania, Cyprus, Turkey and Lebanon.
#3 looks like a North African, but given the higher Berberid/Berid influence in Iberia I agree
#4 anywhere in the Med really.
#5 could pass in much of the Arab World
and #6, I don't think he looks that Northern, but more than most in the Med region, sure.

[Sikeliot]

#5 has a look similar to Lance Bass from N-Sync.

[alfieb]

The gay one?! I would say he looks more like Joey Fatone, the heavyset Italian guy.

[Peyrol]

3rd certainly not...never seen this phenotype among sicilian-piemontese...

[Sikeliot]

I mean #6. The more North Euro looking one.

Joey Fatone has Armenoid influences and IMO looks like a chubby version of David Schwimmer.

[jerney]

#2 doesn't look European to me. I am surprised you both picked him.

:picard1:


#6 can pass in Germany, Denmark, or Sweden.

I would never guess this guy to be from Sweden or Denmark. Although he could pass in Germany because he has a somewhat neutral, I wouldn't consider him typical at all

[Sikeliot]

3rd certainly not...never seen this phenotype among sicilian-piemontese...

he looks Iberian to me.

I am surprised you picked #6 though, he is the least Mediterranean of the bunch.

[Peyrol]

Number 6 reminds me an old friend of mine who is from Palermo.

[kabeiros]

No 1 looks like a pale Armenian
No 2 looks like a Turk
No 3 looks like a Berber
No 4 looks like a textbook Greek
No 5 looks like ????????
No 6 looks like Italian or even central European

No one looks specifically Sicilian to me, but I'll go with no 4 :)

[riverman]

..........

[riverman]

whereas #6 looks genuinely Northern European.

looks very Italian to me, that's where I would guess him.
anyways IDK about the OP question because I didn't realize a couple of those types were in sicily

[Sikeliot]

Number 6 reminds me an old friend of mine who is from Palermo.

Ah ok. That's where all of these are from actually.
