    Default Mongoloid traits , Atlas Berbers.

    Berber folk of Atlas mount in Morocco has preserved some very old Cromagnon features , which some of them end up pseudo-Mongoloid like in the Saamis some expamples below.

    In fact I don't think it is real Mongoloid but definietely old isolated Cromagnid feature:



    However, Niskanen argues that the Finnish ‘mongoloid look’ actually involved features inherited from early European (Cro-Magnon) man which have remained due to Finland’s cold environment and its relatively late move to agriculture.

    "Cromagnid" ? - I dont think its any of that. You dont find it a coincidence that the indigenous people on the opposite end of the Continent........in a similar desert environment also have pseudo "mongoloid" features?





    They have been there for a VERY long time. They even have light skin and limb proportions like North Africans.


    Kurki et al. (2008) examined Later Stone Age (40,000-10,000ya) skeletons from
    coastal South Africa, which possesses a cooler and drier climate than that characterized
    for tropical regions.
    They found that the samples‟ brachial and limb-to-trunk indices
    were more similar to northern mid-latitude populations, with indices falling closest to
    North African samples
    , than to lower latitude African samples, suggesting groups from
    more southern and coastal African latitudes should not be included into a larger Sub-
    Saharan group.
    The features that North Africans have that you call "Mongoloid" were likely present in Africa on the southern Tip and possible the Northern Tip before "mongoloids" existed. Admixture from Mongoloaids, Saami, or "Cromagnids"
    are not needed to explain it.

    However these pseudo-Mongoloid Atlas Berbers have straight falling hair , white skin and an Eurasian (european+asian admixture) appearance. Khoisan people don't look remotely like that and there's probably no genetic link between the both peoples aknownleged.
    By the way a study found out MTDNA link between Amazighs and Saamis proving the Cromagnid origin of this phenemon.

    Don't think cromagnid or any other mixture are responsable for it. It's indigenous.
    The link between Berbers and Saami is only represented by Haplogroup U5b which is rather infrequent in Berbers (6% max).

    I wonder how negro-centrists would react to these phenotypes LOL. Would they be dumb enough to think it's from mongoloid admixture? Or would they be smart enough to finally reject their ''Tuaregs are the purest Berbers'' thing?

    thats why i called it cromagnid , it's what coon stated that early berberids were a cromagnid subtype. aren(t you the one fond of that anthropologists.
