Phenotype

Uralid Phenotype - Face Features & Origin

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

Average Face

The Uralid 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 Uralid 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

Light brown skin, straight or wavy, usually brown, sometimes red, blonde, or black hair and mixed eyes. Short, macroskelic, endomorph. Mesocephalic, chamaecranic with a mesorrhine, moderately prominent, and occasionally plump nose (especially in females). The face is flat in some individuals. Hair growth is average, cheekbones and the folds of the upper eyelids are strong. Lips very thin.

Historical Background

West Sibirid subtype, especially common in the basin of the Ob River among Khanty and Mansi people. Sometimes in Altai and Khakassia. Due to the harsh Siberian climate, this type was never very numerous. Today, the indigenous groups are largely outnumbered by Russians.
