Καλησπέρα,

Alpino-CM with Altanto-Med/Med Admixture. Very Greek looking.

Atlanto-Med. You look stereotypical Greek.

Nope, he doesn't look Albo or south Slavic variant IMO.

He's some kind of Atlanto-Med or Pontid though.

When you say "MED", what do you mean? Gracile med?

Epirotic Alpine + Atlanto/Basic White.

Standard Greek.

If that's a standard Greek appearance, than the stereotype of what some people think Greeks "should" look like, is not accurate.

Mainland Alpinid-Med. I have never physically been to Greece, but from humble research (and knowing some Greek-Americans) your look appears fairly common on the mainland. I'm good friends with a Greek-American with both parents born as islanders (Crete and...the other's name escapes me now...very near Turkey...) who on the other hand looks fairly different from yourself.

Pontid + Alpine. You look a bit like 7eleven (poster). You're a bit chubby, so that's why some mention Alpine but I also see a bit of it.

So the general consensus here is that I have alpine, atlanto-mediterranid and pontid traits.
Where do you think I would fit except for Greece?

Sikeliot
08-22-2013, 07:03 PM
Other Balkan countries I think. You have a look different than islander Greeks, who in my opinion look more like Sicilians.

Alpino-CM/Pontid, you look Greek. You look kind a short to be South Slavic or Albanian.

Oneeye

You remind me a lot of a Jewish and German descended American I know. I've always thought he looked alpine, so it follows that you would too.

Aren't Greeks tall though?

North Greeks are usually taller than Central Greeks and islanders. I think Central Greeks are the shortest.

Depends on what you consider "tall" .

Well, I studied in a town in north Greece and I saw lots of men taller than 185 cm and very few were shorter than 175 cm.

The few Albos I've met were shorter than the average Greek. Must have been Tosks.

Most Greeks and Cretans are about the same height as (white) Americans, I'd say. Many northern Greeks stick out in the USA. I've seen it. My brothers girlfriend, for instance, is from above Salonika somewhere, and she's taller than a lot of men here.

Robust Alpinoid with a Med influence, you look distinctly greek.

Yes. I think he can pass in Plovdiv. Some people can resemble him

lol you do have indeed a common face. You remind me of people from different countries. There is a German trainer in my studio whom you look similar to. You also remind me of a Turkish guy from western Turkey.

alpin/pontid, you look greek, but you might pass in some regions in south albania

Looking at your features, excluding the light eyes and hair, you look like a typical modern day Greek. Atlanto Pontid.

Your profile says "west macedonia". Do you have ancestry from Florina (Lerin)?

Trun

If he can pass in Plovdiv he can pass in almost whole Bulgaria, still I think he looks very distinctively Greek.

He has dark hair.

I have ancestry from some villages near Grevena and Kozani.

I thought I saw light brown for some reason. My mistake. The eye colour isn't typical in Greece though.

There are Albanian men shorter than 172 cm? Kastrioti will not be pleased. :p

My hair is dark brown, but in the sunlight it becomes much lighter. The light eye colour isn't very common in central and south Greece and the islands, but it's not uncommon in north Greece.
