If Indian/Paki didn't had South India admixture, would they look Persian, Iranic?

[ButlerKing]

South Asian descent of Paki, Indian, Rohingya, Sri Lankan, Bengali are all dark skinned

Pakistani/North Indian have large portion of Iranic/West Asian component but also signficant 30-50% of South Indian admixture but many of them look more like middle easterners.


Take a look at the genetics of Sindhi. What makes modern South Asian people distinct are their South Indian admixture otherwise today they look just like middle easterner or North Caucasus








The Sindhi have 55-60% West Asian Iranic, 35-38% South Indian admixture.

And many Sindhi people do look more Middle easterner

[ButlerKing]

Actually the highest west Asian DNA are found in Adydhei and North Caucasian people which makes them a better candidate of what unmixed South Asian look like not like Iranians who have nearly DNA components from SouthWest Asian which is more closer tom Kurds, Arabic components.

Probably they would still all look ugly since they marry their cousins and are all inbred.

[Mortimer]

so you say those light eyed, light haired People are typical of iranians?

[Swearengen]

Sindhi appear to be about 40% south indian. What % are punjabi/kashmiris.

according to this genetic distance map, punjabis, etc. and most north indians in general are much more south indians (tamil) than sindhis. Actually, punjabis are closer to tamil than they are to Sindhis.

[ButlerKing]

North Indian more Tamil than Sindhis?

[Swearengen]

if you look at the genetic distance map, punjabis and other north indians cluster closer to tamils than to sindhis. Sindhis appear to be an anomaly.

[Swearengen]

From that map, punjabis are probably around 75% south asian.
