Tuscans

For those who wonder what tuscans(center-north west Italy) look like, here are the faces of several tuscans taken in some medieval reenactings across the region.
These are the real faces of Tuscans cause these reenactings took place in little cities not affected by internal or external immigration(usually).

I reallly don't think Tuscans look different than other northern Italians. Despite all the talk of how they are mixed with ancient Anatolian and whatnot.

Off topic, but in the US, if two men took a picture like this, people would interpret it as gay. In other countries this doesn't happen so much.

They're both handsome too.

I heard that Tuscans have funny accents when speaking.

Of course!

Is called "Gorgia", and precisely is the non-pronunciation of the "c" lecter...for example, for say "Cado mentre cammino" (i fall when i walk), they say "Hado mentre hammino" (with a heavy aspiration of the "h").

The gorgia is an etrurian heritage.
