Lapanoid refers to the physical phenotypes characteristic of the Laplanders or Sami. They regard their homeland to be the northern extremity of Europe however it is reasonable to believe that they ventured south and brought these characteristics with them.
It is not impossible that they ventured south... but as far as southern Germany and southern France?
Most of the territory inhabited by Laplanders is Nordic, sub nordic or continental nordic.
I think that what they call "Alpine-Laponoid" refers to the shape of the skull or something like that
