Excellent example of a pure Iranid ( Iranian actor Phoenix Raei)

[Avicenna]

I would say this is a really good example of an iranid . He can pass in all parts of Iranian pleateau . Where else can he pass?

[Samnium]

I think he can definitely pass in Italy although some pictures are a bit off, but he doesn't look outlandish as some peninsular arabic phenotypes or berber.

That's because , and I'm probably using some sort of psuedo science here , the iranid phentype formed by the mixture of Yamnaya / steppe folk + CHG Iranian farmers . Both are not far off from what you get in southern Europe / Balkans ( steppe + Anatolian farmers )

Also, I think he passes a little better in Greece rather than italy no?

Absolutely, though Iranians and Europeans are different people, they are not strangers apart, I have seen italians that could pass in Iran and viceversa.

It's not Kuwait or Egypt, Iranians are generally fairer skinned and display more fair traits too (steppe inheritage through the people of the past).

His nose is med. His skull isnt angled. And wheres side profile? IMO more med than Iranid.

[Immanenz]

i think he looks more like a robust Irano Med (Eurafricanid/Cappadocien intermediate)- i also think he passes to some degree in Greece.

[Hamilcar]

Very west asian looking

that's the kind of average iranian I have in mind when I think of Iranians

He has a high head , his nose can be found among iranids, o mean what kind of med are you talking about? Both types have straight or aquliiine noses.

[Dr_Maul]

I agree he is fairly stereotypical

[reboun]

Yes, Iranid.
