That makes you dolicocephalic, close to hyperdolicocepahlic. If you measured properly you fit in the minority for Iranian peoples.Here are the scientific studies I know about Iranians :
Morphological Evaluation of Head in Turkman Males in Gorgan-North of Iran, Golalipur et al. (2007)
Out of 198 young Turkman males tested, 8% were dolicocephalic, 40% mesocephalic, 42.5% brachycephalic and 7.5% hyperbrachycephalic.
Cephalometry in 14-18 Years Old Girls and Boys of Shiraz-Iran High School, Vojdani et al. (2009)
They measured the head shape of 867 girls and 960 boys. Among the boys there were 7.5% of dolicocephalic, 28.5% of mesocephalic, 30% of brachycephalic and 34.5% of hyperbrachycephalic. The girls only had 4.8% of dolicocephalic types.
In both studies (North and South Iran), the brachycephalic type is overwhelming. So perhaps your ancestry is not purely Iranic.
I found an old calculator by Dienekes, it requires various skull mesaurements, one of them is the cephalix index, it's 77.5 in my case (mesocephalic). It says I'm "proto-europoid"
what if my CI is 75,2 and head is large 21x15,8?
big head Northern Europe but dolichocephalic = Iberia and Arabian Peninsula
