@onasimmac: The Atlanto-Mediterranean type was an older anthropological description associated mainly with Portugal, western Spain and other parts of Europe’s Atlantic-Mediterranean coast. It was traditionally characterized as combining generally dark Mediterranean pigmentation with comparatively elongated and defined facial proportions. Its geographic distribution reflects Iberia’s position between the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean world, where numerous ancient populations and migrations intersected. Today, the term is best understood as a historical visual classification rather than a distinct or scientifically recognized genetic group. #targetaudience #edits #phenotype #iberia #portugal #europa #gene
