Description

Widespread group, common all over the Mediterranean and adjacent regions. The tall Atlanto Mediterranid subgroup is typified by the narrow-faced Eurafricanids , but many include broader-faced, more ancient, cromagniform Berberids and the eastern Pontids , who seem connected to ancient Indo-Europeans of the Eurasian steppes (e.g. Kurgans around 5000 BCE). The small Gracile Mediterranid subgroup is usually regarded as the most typical Mediterranid. The short-nosed, wide-faced, and short Paleo Sardinians represent an older variety. Trans Mediterranids show intermediate features between Gracile and Atlanto Mediterranid. Mediterranoids in a broader sense include Orientalids and Indids. European colonists spread them all over the Americas.[1]

Physical Traits

Long-headed, dark-eyed, with light brown skin, and straight to curly, often dark and abundant hair. Occiput protruding, chin small and well-modeled, mouth small, slightly softer and fuller than in Nordid, skulls often smaller.
