Why do Tibetans look like Inuit/Native Americans? Do they share

Basically, yes.

Cold adaptation

Yes. Chances are the Inuit group share the same ancestor genes as Tibetan ones.

Why aren't Tibetans Nordic like? They both have cold adaptation.

Stop being dumb you retard.

>Nordic
>Cold adapted

Nice joke man. Southern Scandinavia is super warm. I guess some Swedes with Mongoloid eyes might be cold adapted though.

because they share recent ancestors and sprung from similar populations.

>>3333861
european/west eurasian populations are cold adapted to an extent. asians below certain latitudes generally aren't but it depends.

>>3333884

Mongoloid physical appearance originates in ice age China. A cold place indeed.

>because they share recent ancestors

No. How could they? Stargates?

>>3333895
classical mongoloid traits, as well as most modern skull shapes are more recent than you'd imagine. even paleoindians exhibited considerable variation compared to their modern descendants, despite a clear line of genetic continuity being apparent. iirc the modern craniometric shape doesn't begin to take hold until the mid holocene.

>No. How could they? Stargates?
similar origins and gene flow, native americans are basically an isolated offshoot of various ancient northeast asian hunter gatherer populations who also contributed admixture to different groups. although tibetans aren't really as good of a comparison as other groups are, like the kets.

You mean the worst possible example of a population with "recent gene flow" to or from Native Americans with no exchange, I agree fully.

>>3333941
ssa would be the worst desu

>>3333314
Didn't they cross over the behring strait?

>>3333314
Tibetans are basically the same caveman-era Asians that first colonized the Americas. They stayed sufficiently isolated until the modern day that their appearance never changed.

They've had 2 major recent changes to human evolution. Lactose tolerance (separate from the general indo-euro population) and high-altitude gene. All within the last 10K or so years, if I remember right.

Europeans aside from Russians barely experience actual cold. Scandinavia had a Mediterranean climate when it was settled.

>Do they share the same ancestors?

Of course they do. Asia and North America were link and practically one landmass, animals, people and even stories and culture went back and forth.
