Ladogan Phenotype - Face Features & Origin
The Ladogan phenotype is a siberia human phenotype documented in historical anthropology literature. This page presents the Ladogan phenotype average face composite, its geographic distribution, physical characteristics, historical background, and academic references.
Average Face
The Ladogan 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 Ladogan phenotype is native to Siberia. 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: 60.00°, 100.00° (latitude, longitude).
Physical Characteristics
Pale to fair skin, usually straight, sometimes wavy, blonde to dark brown hair, mixed eyes. Medium height, meso- macroskelic, endomorph to mesomorph. Meso- brachycephalic, mildly hypsicranic. Mildly leptorrhine, often round-tipped nose. Relatively low, very wide face with a great interorbital distance and a wide, heavy mandible.
Historical Background
Ancient, mostly Europid type of Northeastern Europe and Western Siberia associated with the ancient Kammkeramik culture. Probably played a role in the formation of modern Uralids and Baltids. Survives in people of the Ural region, especially Khanty, Mansi, and Chuvash. In low frequencies it extends west to Europe and east to the Altai.
