English Nord-Atlantids?

[Exeter]

(he remind me of some Austrians)



(slightly Cro-Magnoid)

(perhaps the best example!)

[Señor Malo]

Lord Byron and his daughter Ada Lovelace (born Byron); I wander if they are englisc nord-atlantids or just dark-haired nordids?

[Carnyx]

One of them has unprogressive ear lobbes, like Byron. I.E. no ear lobbes at all.

You are right! in the profile portrait it looks as if his ear lobbes were merged to his head. yet, wouldn't it be rather an individual variation more than a racial trait?

[Exeter]

He is probably a good example, and is especially in profile similar to the young man I thought is one of the best I have found.

In my opinion, some of them look more in the Atlanto-Mediterranean range, specifically:

Individual, I imagine.

Not sure, I can see what you mean with the morphology of the second one. He is a bad example, I agree. They are way too fair (especially hair). Atlanto-Mediterranids are brunet and not that light-haired and pink-skinned (these two are a bit tanned and the photo was taken a sunny day). I can only speculate in the case of Nord-Atlantid. I have not seen any textbook examples, unlike Scando-Nordids, which I have seen plenty of in various physical anthropology books.

I picked out football players in a team who are Nordids, and whom maybe are Nord-Atlantids. There are better examples of Atlanto-Mediterranids. There are also Faelids in the same team.

Nord-Atlantid of Lundman is an intermediate or transitionary type between Göta and Insular (gracile Mediterranid).
