Groups of Sicilians

[Sikeliot]

You can clearily see the whole spectrum of the island in these pics, from ''woggish'' to regulars.

I can't see Sikeliot reason for his rage.

I don't know why you guys are all so dense. I am mad because I am always accused of posting only dark people, but the spectrum in these photos and frequency of types is identical to what I post.

They look regular Med people, a crowd of Turks would look woggier, let alone crowd of Syrian Arabs.

I think they look similar to island Greeks. There are types in these photos that couldn't fit in Iberia and France.

Of course they are, so why you accused Iano of cherrypicking?

Well when I saw the photos not enlarged, the people all seemed very light. But then when I enlarged them I realized, his photos look like mine. Yet you can tell by his arrogant tone in this thread that he thinks they're not, and he is posting them to get back at me, but he's just being hypocritical because he's reinforcing what I have been saying for years.

Now do you understand why I am upset? I get blamed for everything here, just me and only me.

Not cherrypicked Sicilian

By virtue of only posting one person specifically with a point, yes he is.
You're obsessed with me!

Of course Sicilians look overwhelmingly Southern European, but what IS ridiculous is to claim that, in comparison to other Southern European groups, they are uniquely swarthy and exotic. Here are some Andalusians for comparison: http://www.theapricity.com/forum/sho...rmans-or-Turks

No, but they are surely at the top of the list. Also those Andalusians do not represent most of Spain, which consists of far more Atlantid types than you see in those photos or these.

In terms of features, the Andalusians are more European. Coloring wise they are just as dark.
