The difference between Caucasoid and Caucasian

[ButlerKing]

Caucasoid is a anthropological racial family of people from Europe, Northern Africa, Middle east, Northern South Asia, Northern parts of East Africa and Southern part Central Asia however many people do not understand that having Caucasoid structure does not make them Caucasian.





Ethnics that can be considered Caucasoid but not Caucasian


Northern Ethiopians, Somalian, Entreans are Caucasoid in facial structure but they still have 35-40% of Negroid DNA in them so they cannot be considered Caucasian.


Many Southern Turkmen can be considered Caucasoid and Caucasian except for those with 27-31 Mongoloid admixture or especially those from the North Turkmenistan which can range 30-50% Mongoloid.



Ethnics who look Caucasian but are not Caucasoid.


The Ainu and the Jomon people of Japan was originally though to be of Caucasoid origin this has now disproven their related with Mongoloid or better said more related with Amerindians, their Caucasian appearance is pseudo Caucasian look. Basically a people who doesn't haven't taken a East Asian Mongoloid appearance.

The Dravidians, their hair, nose , lips, bone structure, facial hair all resembles Caucasians, however those features they have are Veddoid features, they are a Australoid that is different from the Black Australoid.

The difference between Caucasoid and Caucasian

Same thing. "Caucasoid" was probably coined with Caucasians of the Caucasus in mind.

Outdated definitions


North-west and south Euro difference is extremely exaggerated.
