Arizonid Phenotype - Face Features & Origin

The Arizonid phenotype is a north america human phenotype documented in historical anthropology literature. This page presents the Arizonid phenotype average face composite, its geographic distribution, physical characteristics, historical background, and academic references.

Average Face

The Arizonid phenotype average face is a composite synthesized from multiple individual photographs by historical anthropologists. It represents a statistical impression of recurring facial features, not a real person.

Geographic Distribution

The Arizonid phenotype is native to North America. The historical distribution below reflects approximate centers of prevalence documented roughly 1500 years ago; modern borders and population movements have since blurred these boundaries.

Approximate coordinates: 45.00°, -100.00° (latitude, longitude).

Physical Characteristics

Light yellowish/reddish-brown skin with straight or wavy, dark brown or black hair. (Rather) tall, meso- macroskelic with an endomorph to mesomorph, very robust body. Brachycephalic, orthocranic. Mildly leptorrhine, prominent, straight or slightly convex nose. The face is wide, hair growth moderate. Eyes mildly slanted.

Historical Background

Relatively recent North American contact type. Started to develop as Athabaskan speakers of Canada migrated South during late Pre-Columbian periods, and became more numerous when Europeans reintroduced the horse to America, which facilitated bison hunts in the prairie. Today typical in Apache, Navajo, and Comanche, also in some neighbouring tribes. Still relatively numerous.
