What's the origin of hunter eyes?

It looks like Hunter Eyes are just as dependent on strong browridge and deep sets as the actual eye shape itself.

I excluded models who looked non-white or who didn't have a profile-view photo taken against a blue background.

Photos I selected:

Code:

This was maybe the best example of "hunter eyes" among the models. He has non-protruding eyeballs, low palpebral fissure height, and low upper eyelid exposure. He also has low supraorbital rims, so that he has a short distance between the eyebrows and the eyes. The eyeball looks like it's embedded within the face, so you can't see it pushing against the lower eyelid.

These ones have shittier eye shape, with more protruding eyeballs, higher orbits, and higher upper eyelid exposure. The skin around their eyes is also darker and more unevenly colored.

First one is probably asian mixed, you call shittier eye shape the others but ask the girls and they would choose them.
This is caucasoid eye shape

Probably original Mesolithic trait. Nowadays the most common in Western Siberia and VUR due West Siberian admixture.
Interestingly such eyes seem common in North Africa among Berbers.

Spoiler!

Is it true?

Western Hunter Gatherers had Hunter-eyes. Anatolian Farmers and Caucasus Hunter Gatherers brought scleral-show (eye-lid exposure) to Europe. I have no idea what Indo-Europeans had, but probably a mix as Indo-Europeans were essentially a mix between Western Hunter Gatherers and Caucasus Hunter Gatherers.
