I don't particularly care, I am just interested in anthropology, came across this and was unsure, and I'm posting this on this forum and sending to some friends to gather other people's opinons.

Why would you care that I care?

If that is you, the link needs to go as we do not allow personal information to be posted on here, especially not pictures.

That all the posters there are muslim, and that he's presenting a europeanish phenotype--I figured that it would be a trick question.

People from the caucasus are always inserted into conversations about ethnicity to befuddle self-proclaimed experts.

Let's play spot the chechen:

In case you haven't figured it out, they're all chechens.

If I had to guess... some kind of European? I'm terrible at this sort of thing. Isn't Chechnya quite close to Europe in any case?

I know next to nothing about my family tree, so stuff like this always makes me wonder what parts of the world my relatives could be from...

Chechnya is Eastern European in the Caucus. Used to be part of Russia, if I'm not mistaken.

When I first saw this I also thought he was from the Caucasus

And I also thought he looked like a Tatar, I think I'm leaning towards Tatar because it says on his profile he's a Muslim

LOL just noticed that:laugh:

I've actually asked what nationality I looked like on other forums, and I get described as anything from Spanish to Russian, Scandinavian to Ukrainian or Italian. I think people can look like almost any nationality regardless of where they are from within areas of close genetic similarity such as Europe.

Who here doesnt know what their origins are? My mom lived in a town of 100% German immigrants and ancestry (that's small town Iowa for ya'), but my dad was adopted. I'm pretty sure he has some french, irish, and polish in him, but it's a toss up. Some family members look Jewish, and some don't...

what a boring blend I am. My friend is Norwegian, Danish, Colombian, Peruvian. Pretty hawt.

I have no fucking idea either. My Grandma says she's Irish, Dutch, and French. But my Grandpa is adopted and he had no idea what he was and I get just about everything from my dad who looks just like his dad. Sometimes I get mistaken as being Latino or Native American when I get really tan during the summer. But I really don't care to be honest.

I'm half Italian, with at least 1/2 of that being Sicilian, possibly 3/4ths but we are unsure (not quite sure what part of Italy my great grandmother on my father's mother's side is from) and the other 1/4 of my Italian being Calabrian. I'm also an 1/8 German and 1/8 Scottish. We are unsure how much Irish there is in the Family, since we don't know whether my great grandmother on my father's father's side was Irish or English (Her last name was Thompson). So I'm either a quarter Irish or 1/8 Irish and 1/8 English.
That is of course only going back to he beginning of the 20th century, who knows what is mixed in before that.

Yes, but I think he may have realised it said Muslim on his profile then quickly said that he wasn't a Muslim to try and confuse people

Half Irish, my mother's family being from County Cork... My family was a bunch of ne'er-do-wells who were involved in the IRB and got run out of the country by the Brits for it. The other half, my father's side, is potentially all German, but there's some suspicion that some of my direct ancestors may have migrated there from someplace in Scandinavia (Sweden to be precise) before emigrating to the States (sometime shortly after the American Revolution).

I'm mostly English, with some Irish on both sides, and a large part of my mother's ancestry unknown. More distantly, there is Scottish and Welsh, and further back there are alleged links to the continent, especially the Netherlands, France and Germany. I may also have a recent Scandinavian ancestor who, at this moment in time, is most likely to be Danish.

My mum's family is from the moon (darkside), and my dad is half-English, half-Neptunian, half-Icelandic and a third Swiss with a hint of salt and pepper.

By that I mean, who gives a shit? :confused:
