Why did greeks depict themselves as nordics when todays greeks look like swarthy arabs?
>>
>>2719982
Greeks today looked no different than the ancient Greeks. They were never Nordics, they were always tanned mediterraneans.
>inb4 ottomans
I'm really loving this meme of how a small population of people could easily the displace the genotypes and phenotypes of the much larger native population just because they managed to conquer them. There really wasn't much racemixing during the ottoman rule. Also people of Greece have mixing with the people of Anatolia since ancient times, so your notion that there used to be "pure" Nordic Greeks is false. Also Greeks are in the same genetic cluster as the rest of Europe while turkey is far from it

Another thing to add to this, compare the climates in which Northern Europeans are indigenous to the climate that Greeks are indigenous too. No fucking shit they are going to look different.

I always find it funny how the question is always why do Greeks look like Turks and Arabs? It's never the other way around which is more accurate. Also cherrypicking pictures means nothing, for every swarthy "Greek" you post, I can show you a pale one.
Another thing, most of these "Greeks" most posted on the Internet to disprove that they're not European and whatnot, Greeks are actually never posted. It's always gypsies, Turks, mixed people from Greece, or Cypriots
>>
>>2720232
>Also, a demographic minority in one of the Ionian islands hardly proves that Greeks were replaced.
For that matter population replacement is a remarkably rare event, or at least has been in the last 2-3000 years. Invaders very rarely have even just a minor impact on the gene pool unless they're a full blown migration populace or they're invading a rather sparsely populated area.

>meant turkish invaders, sorry
I'm nitpicking and in no way I'm implying the ionians have been turkified, but I have to remind you that the Septinsular Republic was under Ottoman sovereignty for a whopping 7 years.

>For that matter population replacement is a remarkably rare event
Indeed, yet it happened very recently in Cyprus when the Turks invaded. Which, I guess, is one of the reasons people associate Turkish invasion with ethnic cleansing and replacement. There's no documentation of any such thing happening on the mainland, however.

Also the greek man who hosted me told me how ancient greeks were taller and some had red hair. But that doesn't make them nordics. Even the brown haired blue eyed greeks I saw had the similar greek skull shape to the rest of greeks.

Other way around. It's the Turks that got Hellene'd. Turks are from Eastern Asia, a bit to the West of Mongolia, yet modern Turks don't look Asian. What happened is the ruling class changed and the plebs adopted their religion and language.

It's similar to how the Central Asian Turks got Scythed and don't really looked that Asian either.

That's not accurate, all Europeans only draw a minority of their ancestry from that (generally dark-skinned) population. Their Bronze Age steppe and Neolithic Anatolian input is greater (with a North to South cline and vice versa). This is what Europeans look like when forced to choose from those three populations.

In fact, British Islanders (UK + Ireland) are the lightest-skinned populations around, more so than Scandinavians even.

>>2724739
Keep in mind that there are no pure Neolithic populatinos left in the Middle East. They all intermingled with each other and certain types of ancestry expanded at the expense of others. But yes, Turks look mostly like pre-Turkic Anatolians wiht a significant chunk of Central Asian ancestry and some recent Balkan admixture (converted Balkan Muslims migrating there).

Those ancient Western/Central/Southern hunter gatherer populations were much darker than any European today.
