Description
Cappadocian is an ancient Mediterranoid phenotype that developed from a Gracile Mediterranid and Arabid blend. Shows intermediate features of both types. Probably originated in the Cappadocia region due to the Natufian migrations into Anatolia. Initially spread into Europe by ancient Greek colonists from Anatolia, its presence was greatly expanded during late antiquity by inmigration and resttlement of Anatolians and Syrians into Southern Europe by the Byzantine Empire. Nowadays, it is rare in its homeland of Anatolia and more common in Southern Europe.
This type can appear in Malta, Cyprus, Greece, Southern Italy (especially Calabria and Sicily), and to a lesser extent, Anatolia and the Iberian Peninsula. It has spread to the Americas as a result of colonization.[1]
