Pontic Greeks have Pontid and Alpinid as their main components, just like other Greeks. The only difference is that unlike the rest of Greeks some of them have obvious Caucasian and even Iranid influences. This is exactly what we would expect from a group of Greeks who lived isolated from the rest of Greeks for hundreds of years and interacted with very different peoples than they did. Balkan Greeks had contacts with Albanians, Bulgarians, Serbs etc while Pontic Greeks with Armenians, Georgians, Iranians... this is what marks the distinction between them, not their Greek ancestry.

This is how -the most swarthy- Pontic Greeks look like
As with every group of Greeks, Pontians are stereotyped by their darkest individuals, not by their average looks

Well, he's darker than average Greeks, that's for sure. Although his looks are more common among Pontians you can find Cretans and Cypriots who look like him. Sicilians are not that far from this groups, so it makes sense

It's true that mixed pontic greeks don't look pontic. 100% pontics look different though.
