My last of this type of thread. Multiple choice, as always.

I am including all of North Africa in this.. Moroccans, Algerians, Tunisians, Libyans, and Egyptians.

Moroccans;

Every anthropologist will say that they belong to a Mediterranean phenotype!

Where would you fit them best, if you had to choose a couple of the places I listed off on the poll?
Very north African.

Like I said before, Eastern Euro's do look like Eastern Euro's, Southern Euro's do look like Southern Euro's, East Asians (from China) look like East Asians, West Asians do look like West Asian and North Africans look like North Africans.

All these folks are a product of the climate and food of a place where they live!
 
I don't know. I was never in that part of the world, nor in Africa, nor in Arabia. So I can't see it. You should better ask someone from that region.

Can you say what's a difference between a fella from Laos and a fella from Vietnam? But people who live there know the differences. This is what I mean, lol.

All I know is that some Egyptians don't consider themselves as Africans, but more as Arabs / Southwest Asians.
 
Most North Africans cannot pass as local anywhere in Europe. Not a worthwhile discussion.

I do not agree with you. If I look at this map these folks have between 20-30% and in some areas like north Algeria even 30-40% the Mediterranean admixture. So I guess that many North Africans share same DNA with Europe!

Also Europe has some African admixture.

BTW, Egyptians have MUCH more West Asian admixture than other North Africans.

I think Algerians and Tunisians look pretty much the same, Libyans and Egyptians are similar, and Moroccans are most different.
 
IMHO, the answer to the poll is nowhere.
 
They don't fit anywhere. And not in Southern-Europe. We have hundreds of thousands of North-African immigrants here and they are very distinguishable.
 
Quite ethnic Berbers can pass as natives in many different European areas. But they are actually a minority in North Africa.

PD: The "some" North African admixture in Iberia an Italy is incredibly low. Ridiculous to consider this.

That is true. But North Africans also share elements with Europe that are not North African specific, i.e. the Mediterranean component, the SW Asian component and in the case of Egypt and Libya, some of the West Asian as well.
