The Europeoid race, in different classifications is called Caucasoid, or Eurasian race (Europeoids) - it is extended in Europe, North Africa (to the Sahara), Near East, middle East and central Asia, North India. Characteristic features of the population: the color of the skin, hair and eyes varies from the very bright shades in northern groups to very dark in south and east, hair straight or wavy, soft, face orthognathous, in the horizontal plane (as seen from the top) noticeably comes out forward, superciliary arcs frequently well developed, low orbits, angular, the section of eyes always wide, but ocular slot can be small, no epicanthic fold, usually large nose, sharply projecting, sagittally oriented nostrils, high nose bridge, narrow mouth, small or average lip thickness, strong beard and whisker growth, average build, brush (?) and wide feet. On the edges of its area the Europeoid race passes smoothly onto the Uralic, South Siberian, Mongoloid, Negroid, Ethiopian and Dravidian races.

The Balkan-Caucasian (or Pamir- Alpine) minor race - is a division of the Europeoid major race. The population of the mountain belt, which stretches from the West to the east of the Pyrenees through the Alps, the Balkans, the Caucasus, El'burs, Kopet Dagh, hindu kush, the Pamirs and Tien Shan to the Himalayas. It differs from other Europeoids in terms of the combination of light skin with very dark hair and in terms of eyes (the darkening frequently going to the side of reddish shades), with stronger beard, whisker and hair growth. Other characteristics: brachycephaly, large nose, frequently with convex spine, big face, frequently massive superciliary arcs, massive thick-set build, frequently tall stature. In the southern regions it passes gradually into the Indus- Mediterranean race.

Types:

The Alpine type of the Balkan-Caucasian race (or the Alpine race) - is the anthropological type of the population of the Alps. It is characterized by high frequency of the concave nasal spine, brachycephaly, light pigmentation compared to other mountain groups and dark in comparison and shorter compared to populations from the plains.

The Dinaric type of the Balkan-Caucasian race or Dinaric race, extended in the Balkans. It is characterized by very tall stature, massive skull and body build, by the large features of the face, by the very wide face and head.

The Pontus-Zagros type of the Balkan-Caucasian race, or Pontus-Zagros race - is extended among the southern Caucasian peoples, for example, the Armenians. It differs from other Caucasian varieties of the same race in terms of smaller sizes, the more frequent occurrence of the omitted (?) tips of nose and the percentage of light eyes, intermediate between the Caucasionic and Caucasian types.

The Assyroid (or Prosoasiatic) type of the Balkan- Caucasian race - is extended in the Near East, occupies an intermediate position between the Balkan-Caucasian and Indo-Mediterranean races.

The Caucasionic type of the Balkan-Caucasian race - is extended in the North Caucasus, in Georgia, Daghestan and contiguous regions, for example, among the Chechens, Ingushes, Ossetes, Karachayevs and Balkars. It is characterized by very wide face, relative to other Caucasian groups by light eyes, by tall stature.


Indo-Mediterranean race

The Indo- Mediterranean (or Mediterranean) race - is a division of the major Europeoid race, extending along the coast of the Mediterranean (in Europe and North Africa to including the Sahara), Black sea and further to the east through front Asia to North India.

The Insular-Iberian type of the Indo-Mediterranean race - is extended on the islands of the western part of the Mediterranean. It is characterized by low stature and comparatively wide face in comparison with the population of the continent.

The Inland-Coastal type of the Indo-Mediterranean race or Iberian race - is extended in the coastal areas of South Europe. It is characterized by general gracility, narrow face, low stature, dolichocephaly.

The Berber type of the Indo-Mediterranean race - is extended among the populations of North Africa, in the Sahara. It differs from the Arab type due to a very high and narrow face, angular features, straight nose, in terms of wider head less high.

The Arabian type of the Indo-Mediterranean race or Semito-Arabian race - southwestern anthropological variety, which passes into the Balkan-Caucasian race. It is characterized by a comparatively low stature, large dimensions of the nose, in comparison with other types of the same race by a wide face. Some groups of the Near East, on the contrary, are very tall and narrow-faced.

The Indo-Afghan type of the Indo-Mediterranean race, or Indo-iranian race - eastern variety, which differs from the majority of eastern varieties in terms of tall stature and great increase in the beard and whisker growth.

White Sea-Baltic race

The White Sea-Baltic (or Baltic) minor race - is a division of the major Europeoid race. It is extended in the east of the north of Europe. It is characterized by the world maximum of the light pigmentation of the skin, hair and eyes, ortognathism, soft straight or wavy hair, and the small dimensions of the orbits. It is distinguished by the very similar Atlanto-Baltic race by a low face, increased percentage of concave nasal spine, and lower stature.

The White Sea type of the Europeoid race - according to Cheboksarov, the light-haired, light eyed, snub-nosed, straight haired, undersized, short faced type of Russian people. It is different from the eastern-Baltic type due to smaller brachycephaly and in terms of more abundant beard.

The Baltic type of the Europeoid race or the Baltic race - according to Bunak, it is the northern circle of types, which differ from the southern ones in terms of lighter pigmentation and other features, the exemplary analog of the White Sea-Baltic race.

Central-European race

Division of the major Europeoid race, extending in the middle zone of Europe, the so-called belt of brown-haired men. Characteristic features: hair dark with light-brown and brownish shades, mixed eye shades, very light skin, compared to the Atlanto-Baltic race the face is somewhat lower and wider, stronger beard growth, whiskers and hair but less than in Balkan-Caucasian race, size and shape of the nose varies greatly, but more frequently nose projects strongly, with straight or bent spine, thin lips, average stature.
