Dinarid+Pontid.

Turanid does not mean he can pass as Turk.

And that's not what I said, read again.

Obviously, he's not full Central Asian Turanid. But he passes as Turkish Turanid in ways in which he cannot pass in other MENA countries.

Dinarid+Atlanto-med

its however absurd calling him Turanid, as he looks like a Turk (or Romanian) with zero Turan admix.

I see your point, but in the way phenotypes are organized at the moment Turanid and Aralid overlap almost completely. Splitting the hairs between Turanid and Aralid has very little use, but creating a new category for Turanids in Turkey would be very helpful. We already have a category for Turanids in Hungary (Alföld), why not one for Turanids in Turkey? - they're certainly a lot of them there, and they're also quite distinct from Central Asian Turanids.

Now regarding the OP guy, I cannot put him under Alföld, because Alföld has some Baltid influence and this guy had Dinaric influence instead. So I would say he's Turkish Turanid plus Dinaric.

South Italian

[aherne]

He doesn't look Romanian at all... More like Armenian or Turk. Middle/Near Eastern

[Nurzat]

looks very Turkish to me - from what I've seen in my wife's Turkish telenovelas

[Rogan]

I see nothing Dinarid about this guy. Passes best in Asia Minor
