Classify some Med-looking Irish celebrities

[Fraisod]

It is obvious. Celts (like ancient britons and gauls) were almost exactly like ancient germanic tribes, the difference is that one trends a bit more to WHG and the other to indo-europeans, but they were low in Neolithic. Greeks and also romans described them to be similar phisically looking barbarians that inhabited after the Danube.

The Romans didn't conquer Ireland, of course, but did conquer Britain when it was still a Celtic culture. Regarding the Britons, Tacitus , in "Agricola", a book named in honor of his father-in-law (Roman governor of Britain), described a diversity among them -- with three phenotypes depending on proximity to other lands: pale brunets with light eyes resembling the people in Gaul, others resembling the Germanic tribes (stereotyped as redheads by Tacitus), and a third group, which even then (the idea of Iberian influence is ancient), Tacitus said were Swarthy like the natives of Hispania.
I was working from memory, so I found the quotation with my added gloss in square brackets:

“The reddish hair and large limbs of the Caledonians [Latin name for Scots] proclaim a German origin, the swarthy faces of the Silures [group of tribes in part of modern Wales], the tendency of their hair to curl, and the fact that Hispania lies opposite, all lead one to believe that Spaniards crossed in ancient times and occupied that part of the country. The people nearest to the Gauls likewise resemble them.”

Aidan Turner looks identical to this guy Armağan Oğuz:

[Gota_type_]

Colin Farrell again


Another one is rugby player Tiernan O'Halloran, who I have posted elsewhere

Both pass unnoticed in Spain but the second one looks like many average Spaniards. So common that if his name was Juan Pérez and worked in a Spanish tapas bar, nobody would say a thing. Extremely typical that is almost comic.

It isn't from Iberian admixture though. When did a significant Iberian migration go to Ireland? Most populations have people that have a range of colouring. Colin Farrell for instance has had a dna test and came out something like 98.6% British & Irish. Also Irish cluster all in the same general vicinity. They don't pull towards Iberia for instance. What would you think if one brother was dark and the other lighter? Do you think their genetics would be different? Anyway just trying to explain that if an Irishman is dark he still would be Irish genetically.

Because many are anthrotard who think that having a hair color shade, eyes and skin is because of foreign contribution in the context of an Irish.

Look at your family if you're Irish: none look like an Arab (extremely rare, I have never seen a single Irish look like a "Mediterranean", that is to say a North African or Levantine), but some might not have the same pigmentation, sometimes shades can be seen, to the genes inherited by some members, etc.

Moreover, children do not only inherit from their parents but also grandparents, great, great-great, etc.

I inherited some of the features (eyebrows, nose, face shape, and others) My French maternal great-grandfather, which represents approximately 6% of my DNA ...

If people are unable to understand the complexity of genetics, that not everything is black or white with genetics, so it is useless to argue with them, they are anthrotard (ignorant) and must move on thing.

This topic has no interest (anthrotard, ignorant), but I wanted to point your comment interesting that puts things in order.

Colin Farrell and Gillian Norris again:

I classify Christine Bleakley as MILF.

[Richmondbread]

Irish supposedly have some Med influence from invading Spanish Armada.

Irish supposedly have some Med influence from invading Spanish Armada.

Do you honestly believe that?

Colin Farrell and Gillian Norris again:

How many times has Colin Farrell been posted on this forum lol

[HoboJim]

Aidan Turner definitely has an interesting appearance. He's dark enough to be Canarian imo.
