Pigmentation of Finns

[Supercomputer]

These are the only studies I was able to find. Are there any other?

Eye colour of 854 Finns in Norrbotten (northern Sweden) were:

Light 52,4%
Mixed 32,7%
Brown 14,4%

Swedes from Norrbotten and Skaraborg in southern Sweden:

Light 89,6%
Mixed 5,1%
Brown 5,2%

Saamis:

Light 11,0%
Mixed 53,5%
Brown 35,5%

Probably some bias in those stats (about the Swedes and Saamis particularly), but whatever. I can't prove that at the moment.

This seems to be poorly synchronized. Only blue in the light category for Finns and hazel under brown. For Swedes it's all light under light and only pure brown under brown.

What did a shrink know about ethnicities during the Nazi era?

Finns from Savolax in eastern Finland were on average 85-88% light-eyed. Interestingly, the dolicocephals were less so. Hair colour averaged 40% dark blond, 30% brown and 20% dark brown/black. Here, the dolicocephals were blonder than the rest. German data.

Only people with prominent brown eyes have been from Savo. This is only my observation. As to the hair color, it is on average in Finland darker than anthrotards expect.

Science by the physician K. A. Haartman on the anthropological
tribal types of Finland. It was the same year that Anders Retzius
gave his fundamental lecture on the cranial shape of the Northern
people before the Swedish Academy of Science. (There is obviously
a direct historical connection with Haartman's lecture; however,
nothing further is known about it.) Beginning with the then very
eagerly pursued study of Finnish tribes (we must remember that
this was the age of awakening nationalism), Dr Haartman
sketches a very simple picture of the Finns. However, Haartman
likens the Karelians to "desert Bedouins" (!), with brown hair,
blue eyes (!), long and high-vaulted crania, narrow faces, and
straight, narrow noses. The Tavasts were completely blond, with
turned-up noses, broad and low-vaulted crania, and also a shorter
and broader build than the Karelians. The Savolaxians were
viewed as a mixed race of Karelians and Tavasts. Although this
assumption was wrong, it continued to serve as a basis for Finnish
tribal typology until the end of the nineteenth century. It was even
elevated to a sort of canon in the works of Gustaf Retzius (son
of A. Retzius) following his travels in Finland in the 1870s.

Actually Savolaxians ARE mixed Karelians and Tavastians. All other observations are wrong. In the linguistics we know that the Savolaxian dialect derives from the Karelian language. We also know that hundreds Savolaxian surnames came from Karelia, but also their own exist. But then their genes are somewhere between other Finns and Karelians, after taking into account that they seem to be their own group due to the genetic drift from the East Finnish expanasion.
