Are Trans and East Mediterranids the same?

[LorenzoSpitaleri]

They look very similar. Both seem like an intermediate of Eurafricanid and Gracile Med. Many greeks, italians and other southern europeans share the same neolithic mediterranean haplogroup E1b1b that North Africans have.




I found a map somewhere which classified East Med as the proper form of South Med.



"Many reported typical, gracile Mediterranids (or East Mediterranids, because they are higher-skulled) from North Africa (Coon, 1939; Peters, 1940; Fischer, 1943; Heberer et al. 1969)" on the Transmed description.

Jason Cerbone, of italian descent. Classified as East Med, looks transmediterranid imo.




Luigi di Maio, gracilised transmediterranid.

Is transmed not just someone who passes all across the Mediterranid transitionally?

No, just a transexual person of Med phenotype.

Not sure about the origin of the term. Perhaps because East Mediterranid and South Mediterranid aren't exclusive to East and South respectively, therefore making it a phenotype that transitions to multiple areas as you said. Could also be a blend of the words "Trans-Saharid" and "Mediterranean", as one of the other names for the type is "Saharid".

I imagine the Med type is in general little altered between Portugal and S Asia though heavy mixture with other elements means that the populations on the whole look different in every country, Luigi Di Maio could even pass in N India imo which goes to show that the differences in Med types are not that vast.

Med types, even the most southern types, are very rare and still distinct from south asia.

I disagree, he could pass as typical in North Africa, now indids, like mediterranids and orientalids are all mediterranoid, which does validate your argument to a certain extent but in general an atlanto-mediterranid won't pass in India and a North Indid won't pass in Spain.

That is because Atlanto Med's are supposed to be more robust i think, N Indid's especially in the higher castes and among Sikh's often look almost southern Euro, perhaps the eye and nose area is slightly different but they do not differ radically if their Dravidian mixture is absent, Luigi di Maio would not look out of place in a Indian part of London imo.

I think it’s the former moreso because Saharid is a brown skinned caucasoid type of North Africa
