Are Andaman Islanders and Negritos Negroid or Australoid?

[Homo Insapiens]

^Aeta of Phillipines seem to look like a mix of mongoloid and negroid or australoid, like how all southeast Asian negritos do. It’s only Andaman Islanders it seems who look unmixed among negritos, unsurprisingly considering their geographic isolation.

Southeast Asian negritos look like they’re a mix of mongoloid and either negroid or australoid, which one is more likely?

Should Andaman Islanders or Melanesians & Australian Aboriginals be used as an assumption for one half of their ancestors, which is better?

Unmixed Australian Aboriginals seem to look even more archaic than Melanesians, they seem to be the most archaic looking people in the world. I’m not thinking about their cognition of course, that’s another matter, I trust that all populations in the world have the same overall mental characteristics, including emotions and intelligence. Trying to avoid sounding like some sort of racist, in case anyone gets the wrong idea. This is an anthropology forum, anthropologists study and compare physical characteristics.

If Andaman Islanders share the same ancestors as Australian Aboriginals outside of Africa, then they must have neotenised greatly after splitting from them, Australian Aboriginals and Andaman Islanders seem to be at opposite ends of the neoteny spectrum of humanity. Otherwise, they could be descended from another wave, a later wave out of Africa, from the ancestors of Australian Aboriginals.

Another reason is that Aboriginals and Melanesians have Denisovan input which is not found in Negritos.I think its the Denisovan input that gives the more archaic features.

I believe in that too but there is no confirmation that it is the case of it being responsible for that.

They're connected genetically to South Indians via AASI

They're only similar to Negroids in that they developed/evolved/originated in Hunter-Gatherer community where there was also hot/tropical climate

While Northeast Asians evolved as they are from the advent of rice farming and evolution in cold-weathered climates/conditions

This Denisovan is only found in Pacific Australoids (including some Southern Aetas too).

How come negritos are only found in the Philippines, the Malay peninsula, & the Andaman Islands today?
Are Andaman Islanders pure negritos? Are they the only pure negritos today?
How come they’re not found anywhere else in southeast Asia?
There’s more than plenty of mountainous islands in Indonesia that could harbor them, yet none of them have negritos today.

Probably a combination of both.

Probably a combination of both.

What? You clearly don't know what you are talking about. They are an Eastern Non African population that split from the ancestors Early East Asians 50 KYA. They are bona fide Crown Eurasians. You and other Euros are closer to SSA populations than they are.

Andaman Islanders have similar Denisovan intergression levels as East Asians (0.9%). Onge/Jarawa also is closer to East Asians genetically than other Pacific island Oceanian folks interestingly

There is no such thing as "Australoid" as an concrete term. The ancestors of Proto-East Asians, Andaman Islanders, Aeta, Papuans, Melanesians, AASI trifucated early on in Sunda Land (all are called "Eastern Non Africans" or ENA). Eastern Non Africans are Southern branch of the Intial Upper Paleolithic folks who created the Ahmarian Culture in the Levant. The Northern Branch of the IUP went to Europe and created the Bohunician culture (no they were not the ancestors of West Eurasians)
Onge, Hoahianbinh, and Proto East Asians form a clade to the exclusion of other Eastern Non Africans. All ENA have an common intial Denisovan Intogression, with futher intogression of Denisovan ancestry in Papuans, Australians. East Asians have low Denisovan as does AASI and Anadaman Islands relative to other ENA, but East Asians have dual pulse intogression two different Denisovan populations, one southern that it shares with other ENA groups, and one is nothern Denisovan group that is close to the Altai Denosevan genetics. East Asians are the by product of Proto E. Asian ENA mixing with the Northern IUP groups who populated Europe and Siberia, but those Northern IUP groups got replaced by Early West Eurasians (EWE)
