Interesting post of yours, but I will clarify my position.
-
Mediterranean (broader sense) = Aurignacian - if by Aurignacian is meant a race with a smaller skull and non-Cro-Magnon morphology.
-The UP designation of a race is also in my opinion confusing, I usually say
Cro-Magnon instead.
-About
dinarization, the most reasonable explanation I know of so far is that of Coon. I always thought that there was something both Mediterranean and Cro-Magnoid about dinaricized types.
-There are also more or less Mongoloid forms in Europe.
So, that makes my view of Europe a three races system as well, except that your three races system is a two races system in my view, and then I add Mongoloids to complete the system. I think you forgot about them.
