The most dolichocephalic person I've ever seen.

I would say Italian (maybe from Sicily)

Hmm interesting, are there people who look like him in Sicily ? I've never been there so I don't know.Originally Posted by Gabriele Pashaj
And I don't know the ethnicity of this guy, so I guess we'll take what the majority says eh ?
I'd say he looks North African. Tunisian, Moroccan, even Egyptian perhaps. Sicilian, really? The Sicilians I've seen are nothing like that, but I know few of them.
Doesn't take the picture format

What I know of this guy is that he was thought to be Somali or South Asian by some people
Maybe they weren't serious when they classified him
I would agree, that or maybe a Yemeni.
I've never seen a Sicilian who looks like that, much less any other Italians, and I know hundreds of them.
These are a pretty good cross section of the ones I know.
Students from a small town outside Palermo who were helped by the Zimbardo foundation:
Some famous Sicilians who came immediately to mind:
Luigi Lo Cascio
Robert Loggia:
Luca Parmitano-astronaut
Andrea Camilleri-author
Falcone and Borsellino-heroic Sicilian prosecutors executed by the Mafia
This is about as "exotic" as it gets: Francesco Scianna
Giuseppe Fiorello:
Yet, his brother:
Sicilian women can range from this...Maria Grazia Cucinotta
To this...Giusy Buscemi
Obviously, these are both actresses. Not all Sicilian women are as beautiful as Giusy Buscemi. A lot of Sicilian women are very brunette yet more beautiful than Cucinotta, imo.

Could he pass as generically Jewish?
Is he Saudi or Emirati?
Definitely not Sicilian nor Northern African.
Oh, why is he not North African, I was starting to believe that.
Ok .. to make this more fun :)

I've never seen a Jew who looks like him except perhaps Yemeni Jews, and there's controversy as to how much Jewish ancestry they actually have.

Samaritans, who are pretty close, are very different.

Seems like some t-roll put this out there, particularly as he didn't reveal the actual ethnicity.
When people don't reveal the actual ethnicity and a link to check it, it's usually a big red flag.
Based on the modeling, Yemeni or perhaps some Bedouin like people in the Sinai might be right.
I would say no.
I've always wondered whether I'm a tr0ll or not.
I know I'm honest, in tr0lling ? this duality is a gift from the green god of primordial darkness.
I thought this pic 1; Saudi , pic 2; Yemeni because he looks more gracile , more long faced.
You're too sensitive. :) I was speaking of the person you said first posted it.
About the MDLP British_Roman population.
Is there any of you who can provide some information?
Maybe from Egypt ...

I must add also that I’m so sorry that I said that he was MAYBE from Sicily .... my intention was not offensive ... bhooo
I saw a remote similarity with a younger Franco Battiato, but maybe not. lol
Thank you for your answer
Yeah, don't mean to start an argument, but people shouldn't be offended over inaccurate guesses in classification threads like this, it ruins the fun and discourages participation. I doubt you were t-rolling unless you guessed him as Chinese or Russian.
mmmmmmmmm dooouuughhhnuuuutz
I understood thank you

I don't know what game some of you think you're playing, but I'm not amused.
Please let's not pretend there's not a cottage industry out there posting the most exotic Sicilians they can find and then saying all Sicilians look like some Middle Eastern or even Indian or God knows what other nationality. NONE of it is done honestly or with good intent. I don't know who you think you're kidding.
Some Sicilian phenotypes overlap with some phenotypes from Turkey or the Middle East. There's nothing unexpected about that or offensive in pointing it out. Most don't. There's a lot of variation in Sicily, as I tried to show.
@Ironside,
Please repost the pictures, preferably as imgur shots so they don't disappear again. I'd like to take a shot at finding out who he is.
You didn't find it odd that the person who has his pictures AND his gedmatch results won't tell you his actual nationality? Pretty t-rollish behavior, wouldn't you say?
If you didn't want my reaction you shouldn't have sent me a pm requesting my participation.
@Lenab,
The first two pictures indeed look like Sicilians, some of the models don't. How do you know they're Sicilians?
Franco Battiato:
I didn't think of him, probably because the original subject looked so dark. There is some similarity. Is whomever started this happy now? Mission accomplished?
