Default Swiss composite faces, the basic types of Western Central Europe

Swiss composite faces, the basic types of Western Central Europe
Some of the images I used were already presented on Skadi in this

and other threads already.
Beside the Atlantid, Nordid, Alpinid and Dinarid one can find mainly more gracile Mediterranids and Cromagnids/Dalofaelid in Switzerland, probably I'm making composite faces of those later too, though in the material I have from Dodona (Len posted it), there are not enough individuals of those types, which reflects their lower importance in this area of Europe.
Composite face from the Swiss plates: meso- to dolichocephalic, tall, dark or dark-mixed, narrow face and not too strongly deviating (from Nordoid and Mediterranoid standards) facial traits. The result being best described as Atlantid (ranging from tall [Atlanto-] Mediterranids to "dark Nordids" with limited Dinarid admixture ["Keltic"]:

The next element being Nordid, tall, light, meso-dolichocephalic, narrow face:

I made one of the relatively large Alpinid sample too (short-medium, brachycephalic, broad face, not too prominent-long nose, dark or mixed:

Finally Dinarid, only the more typical ones, tall, brachycephalic, narrow-long face, large-prominent nose - the Dinarid looks longer headed because they typical Dinarid short head is less balanced, with some having rather forward pushed head - typical planoccipital, whereas others, which are otherwise typical, have a rather short forehead, area before the ears, in the morph this two patterns overlap to a certain degree and produce a longer headed looking result:

If using both Nordid and Dinarid, the balanced result is closest to "Keltic", though it approaches Atlantid as well:
