NORDID:
Description:
The classic Nordid type. Strongly depigmented Northern European dolicho-mesocephalic leptomorphs. It presents the end point of the distribution and is rare in its pure form, but frequently found in mixtures with various of the adjacient types.
Body:
Tall, Ektomorph
Status:
Core population in Southern Sweden. Found across many regions of Northern Europe. Nowadays it can also be found in North America and other regions. Population decreasing as a result of low fertility, intermixture and migration.
Description:
Blend between Nordid and Dalofaelid. More frequent than the two pure types. Has several subtypes, like the Tronder in Norway which blends with Borreby, the Anglo Saxon in Britain that blends with Keltic Nordic, Friterpian in the Netherlands and Reihengräber in Germany. Common in Germanics.
