North African phenotypes. The main types of North Africa.




Here is another video that shows The typical look of the North Africans.
This is the typical North African that you see in Europe. In France, Italy and in Spain.

On a side note...If you notice in the first video. The whitest North African type the Berberids, they look kind of like the Gypsies from Spain. Even if they show little to no SSA admixture, They do not look European or like a Spaniard.

A Brazilian who posted in one of the videos said ¨the Saharid examples resemble the typical Brazilian pardos (triracials). ¨

I agree. They do look kinda like a Brazilian pardo

North Africa was originally Capoid & Aethiopid, until Caucasoids from West Asia invaded North Africa, which created the Ancient Egyptian civilization.

then laters invasions from Romans, Germanics, Arabs, Turks, Greeks, Iberians, & more recent the British, Italians, & French made North Africa more Caucasoid.

There's also more recent Congoid ancestry from the Arab Slave trade, & Turanid ancestry from the Ottoman Turks.

The Moors were indeed Arabid & Berberid, but Middle Eastern phenotypes, however, by 1492, the Moriscos were mainly of Iberian ancestry, with some Arab-Berber ancestry, I scored some Arab & Berber DNA in some companies from my Morisco ancestry.

I also see many North Africans who look mestizo, I would see them in Europe and I always found those phenotypes very interesting, look at Nassbean, he can pass for a harnizo with no problem

i found those phenotypes more common in Algerians though, but among Moroccans, it wasnt that rare either
she is moroccan and looks mestiza
