    Default Which Sicilian Aprician is the Most Typically "Sicilian-looking" Sicilian?

    There are others that we do not have photographs for, so the battle will consist of Sikeliot vs. Sicilianu101 vs. Alfieb. All three members have given permission for these three photographs to be used in this thread. [Edit: photos removed]

    Sicilianu101 (Messinese [Eastern Sicilian])

    Sikeliot (Messinese [Eastern Sicilian])

    Alfieb (Palermitan and Trapanese [Western Sicilian])

    I don't even have Sicily in my name like those two, so I'm at a distinct disadvantage.

    BUT, two of my three photos were taken in Sicily, so there! (Palermo and Messina, to be exact)

    Depends on what people think Sicilian looks like.

    If people think it's Greek, I win.
    If people think it's Levantine, Sicilianu wins.
    If people think it's neither but just an ambiguous swarthoid, then you win.

    Hmmm....I'd say Sicilianu and yourself are quite typical, but I'll choose Sicilianu since he has a distinctive Greek/Med Islander look, whereas you can fit in continental Italy and maybe the Southwest Europe

    Not Sikeliot

    Alfieb looks distinctly Southern Italian/Sicilian.
    Sikeliot looks Greek.
    Sicilianu looks Jewish, Palestinian, Cypriot, Lebanese, or Syrian.

    I personally think alfieb looks more Sardinian or Iberian and not Sicilian.
    I think the remaining two of us fit better, but depending on whether one thinks Sicilian looks more Greek or more Levantine.

    You don't think he looks more Iberian?
