For those who were unable (unwilling?) to grasp the differences between human races the first and second times I posted about them, here's yet more information -- to clarify or confound, depending on you.

The Caucasian Face Fine Hair: What about Dravidians and many East Africans? They do have fine hair, yet are not Caucasian. Large Eyes? You need to read some novels based on European imperialism in Africa. Many times Africans were described as having large eyes. Narrow Nose? Pretty stupid generalization, especially when present on a more ancient West Asian and African population. When I say West Asian, I am referring to the Dravidians and similar looking people of the Arabian Peninsula and Southern Iran. The same applies to East Africans, even Bantus. 8. Orthognathous: Why is the Caucasian phenotype so broad (hence 'usually' is included), while the more ancient Negroids are so specific? The Negroid Face is downright false as well, with terms like 'very curly' hair, like come on, most Africans don't have peppercorn hair. It is only the Khoisians that have such hair texture, and most Central and East Africans do not have 'very curly' hair. Anyhow, even if one has 'moderately curly' hair, they can't be classed as Caucasian. PS: IP: Logged |

Granted the idiocies of the un-educated Eurocentrists - Given the blatant fraud of mis-educated ones... ....but why do non-Eurocentrists attempt to refute racist terminological fallacies, by repeating them 'backwards'(?), which is what they want and expect. Sorry, but I do not consider this... 1 pale skin. His Asian example Lucy Lui, His 'white' woman, Sarah Tabrizi, is in fact 1/2 Iranian and could just as easily constitute a vast combination of mixed West Asian or Afro-European phenotypes, including Mexican, Dominican, Puerto Rican...... Only the Black female example is selected to constitute a strict representation of a supposed 'race' archtype. The reality is, most people DO NOT constitute such archtypes, which is why attempting to justify race using phenotype isolate is B-O-G-U-S. Most have some features that could just as easily be ascribed to 'other' races.

The big problem with most of this material is that racial groupings are artificial and many times are relative to the societies in question. The same person, who is considered White in Brazil and many Latin American countries, but has a little African Blood or Features, might be considered Black in the U.S., Colored in South Africa, and Southern European in Germany or Sweden! Therefore, it is wrong to use your own biased views or ethnophobic ideas to label people. Many African Americans, who are mixed and have lighter skin color or Caucasian facial features, are not considered Black in many African Nations, including South Africa, Europe, Asia, and South America. The United States is a Racist Society and therefore American Standards are not accepted in many nations around the world and for very good reasons. For example, the rulers and elites in Haiti are mostly lighter skinned Blacks or should we say mixed people, but according to the Native Haitians, these people are not Black at all, and most Haitians think of them as White People. Therefore, your attempts at using racist views to label people Black or whatever, just because that is the way it is done around you and in your myopic part of the world is totally invalid and is a form of racism in and of itself. This is the same idea, as Afrocentrists trying to use the Biased Racial Categories of Eurocentric Racist Europeans for their own agenda!! Simply put, it is like using garbage to prove that your garbage is just as good as their garbage!! [This message has been edited by ABAZA (edited 13 March 2005).] IP: Logged |

The Caucasoid example is a perfect Mediterranean type. She differs from the Negroid in almost every respect -- more than even the Mongoloid does. If she were untanned and adapted to a cold climate (i.e. had light skin, hair and eyes) she would be Nordic. Her "Latina look" is due to the Mediterranean ancestry in most Latin Americans, which can often dominate their phenotypes. Of course, she looks nothing like the Nicaraguan Mestiza blind rasol posted. That woman's Native American admixture is plainly evident in her bone structure. And the kid that rasol "analyzed" to show his "Negroid traits" is, ironically, not even Mediterranean. He's more Alpine, which explains his broader features. Mediterraneans are known for their sharp, angular features. His are more common among similar Northern Paleolithic types:

It has already been explained to you that Nordics and Mediterraneans are virtually identical: "The Nordic-Iranian type D1 lies between Anglo-Saxon and Keltic area norms, and D2 is the earlier pre-Bronze Age Corded form which Coon identifies. Type D3, lighter and more hawk-nosed, is transitional to the Mediterranean type B4 and to type D4 (Iranian), which is the Proto-Iranian of Vallois, Irano-Afghan of others, and Proto-Nordic of Krogman, and which is more linear and more rugged than D3 and has a more tilted chewing plane, more nasal convexity, and deeper occiput. Type D5 approximates Coon's Danubian-Halstatt and successor Central European forms." (Angel, 1971)

To Evil Euro The reference group "low IQ slave descendant" used as epithet could be easily seen to be a) false and b) trivial. a) According to Lynn and Vanhanen(2002) the IQ of African Americans(85) is higher that all of West Asia(~83) and South Asia(81) and on approximate par with Southern Europe(see Lynn 1978). b)Africans were enslaved in the Western hemisphere from approx. 200 years(Haiti) to 300 years (Brazil) while Europeans were enslaved in Europe for some 1,000 years under the severe freedom denying strictures of feudalism Slavery aalso lasted for at least 1,000 years in West Asia and South Asia(its caste system was founded on the principles of unfree labour) and the same for East Asia where slavery and peonage were the norm--thereby allowing the development of land-owning ruling groups.

And the 5% that actually deals with science 1) deliberately ignores skeletal analysis, and 2) is flat-out wrong: "Frequently, it is erroneously contended that the high (85-95%) within-group variance of human populations is inconsistent with the existence of races because differences between individuals are greater than differences between groups." (Bamshad et al. 2004. Nature Reviews Genetics 5, 598-609) The AAA should keep politics out of its pronouncements, and leave genetic research to the geneticists.

Evil Euro has yet proven: 1) Southern Europeans are pure. 2) E3b originated is not African. 3) Existence of a generalized human stock in Africa (aka Mickey Mouse Theory) Whether race exists or not, the fact is such discussions do not even fit into the current debate. It is quite obvious that you are just a low life racist, whom seems to believe that Negroids can only look like the exagerrated West African, while Europeans can have traits that go from Negroid to Mongoloid! This sort of logic coming from you is clearly false and has been debunked several times. IP: Logged |

Only Qafzeh and Skhul seem to lack these primitive features, and rate as "generalised modern humans".

One prior study of Hispanics did not suggest a distinct cluster possibly because of the heterogeneous origins of that Hispanic sample....our sample was from a single location in Texas and was composed of Mexican Americans. The results indicate that using genetic clusters instead of race/ethnic labels are likely to simply reproduce race/ethnic differences which may or may not be genetic. Therefore researchers performing studies without racial/ethnic labels should be wary of characterizing differences between clusters as genetic in origin.

I highly doubt that Australians would want an article stating that they derived from Negroid. I suggest you, instead of looking at such unreliable articles, actually observe the actual evidence. Take a look at this picture: Are you telling me the picture of the adult fossil found Herto is not Negroid? If not, then define Negroid? If you believe that a Negroid is the variant that you post some time ago, then you are wrong. Even in West African, most of them do not look like her. If you consider the skeleton from Herto a generalized human than many Africans living in West Africa are 'generalized humans' as well.

Sumerians are related to the Elamites and the Dravidians. These three groups, even though illogically branded as Caucasoid did not come from Central Asia, nor are their language 'Caucasian', the cultures of these land were not 'Caucasian' and they were very dark skinned, unlike the pale skin nomadic Caucasians. They do, have straight hair, but their hair texture is not thick like the Caucasoid counterpart. These people are West Asians, non-Caucasian or non-Negroid in origin. Note: The first Caucasians that migrated to the Middle East were the Hittites and this was during the peak of the Sumerian civilization. Caucasians would not have the capability to build such a civilization because they could not develop a civilization in Central Asia. Hittites, were lucky because they were able to conquer and then adopt the West Asian writing system. IP: Logged |

^^^^^^^^^^ Living proof of negro inferiority ^^^^^^^^^^ Even a cursory look at the paper's diagrams and trees immediately indicates that the authors make some extraordinary claims. They used a single genetic marker, HLA DRB1, for their analysis to construct a genealogical tree and map of 28 populations from Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Japan. Using results from the analysis of a single marker, particularly one likely to have undergone selection, for the purpose of reconstructing genealogies is unreliable and unacceptable practice in population genetics. The limitations are made evident by the authors' extraordinary observations that Greeks are very similar to Ethiopians and east Africans but very distant from other south Europeans; and that the Japanese are nearly identical to west and south Africans. It is surprising that the authors were not puzzled by these anomalous results, which contradict history, geography, anthropology and all prior population-genetic studies of these groups. Surely the ordinary process of refereeing would have saved the field from this dispute. We believe that the paper should have been refused for publication on the simple grounds that it lacked scientific merit. -- Risch, Piazza and Cavalli-Sforza, 2002 Relationships between populations based on DNA sequence diversity data at the HLA-DRB1 locus, displayed as a correspondence analysis plot (similar to principal components analysis; see Chapter 6) in which clustered populations are genetically similar. (a) Populations, with names indicated; (b, c, d) Three alternative groupings of the populations (there are others). The grouping chosen by Arnaiz-Villena et al. (2001) is (d) (adduced as support for a sub-Saharan origin for the Greeks) but is essentially arbitrary. Why is it preferred to alternative groupings shown in (b) and (c)? If the population origins were unknown when the groupings were made, would it affect the outcome? Note that this locus is generally regarded as being under strong selection.
