Romania's most northern: The Hutsuls

[oyster]

Ukrainian sub-group, an old sedentary population disregard all the BS written by Romanian or Ukrainian nationalists across the internet. Most probably a Slavic dominant element with some Vlach, Magyar and Germanic touch. Feel free to classify those in the pictures, I don't retain them as necessarily representative. The pictures are from special occasions, as Hutsuls dress as any other Europeans in the day to day life. Estimations go from 40 000 to 100 000 for the total population (although there were over 50 000 Ukrainians only in Suceava + Maramures counties of north Romania combined at the last census)

Magyar and Germanic touch

Can't see them,racially they look more Romanian than Slavic or ukrainian in some cases,but the guy with the ukranian hairstyle should be deported.
The last picture looks very similar to a place in my county btw.

Hutsuls have nothing to do with Cossacks, man... They are highlanders, all of their territory is in the Carpathians, especially on slopes hardly reacheable until modern days. And about looks, as a group (don't take them individually) they would stand out in Vaslui, Iasi, Bucharest and other Romanian regions I know (you don't get to see all-Romanian groups of 20-30 with those features).

Thanks for stopping by, anyway. I was waiting more from Atrox

Obviously most would stand out,but especially the guy with the weirdo hairdo -> that's a "Ukrainian" Cossack hairdo,man...

The examples shown are rather progressive and harmonious, with quite specific regional inspired variants of Dinarid (rather Norid), Alpinoid, Nordoid and Baltoid.

Taras Bulba actors were russians, same as Shadows of Forgoten Ancestors were russian also. In reality hutzuls look more germanic.
