Did romans and greeks write about them being big? They are the tallest in the world.
Also doesn't this disprove the idea that EEF = small, since Serbians and even Greeks to an extent are taller than most north Europeans?
Why are they so tall? Is it diet related?
> and even Greeks to an extent are taller than most north Europeans?
Lmao wtf are you smoking?
T. Greek working in Germany
Maybe not most, but they are taller than Brits, Ukrainians, Belarus, Russians, etc. Talking about averages here.
no, Greeks are short.
>1.78
>short
Wut
it's obviously the east European ancestry overall making them tall, plus of course some recent selection which never hurts, there's little need to discuss this, it's one of the most robust associations as far as distal sources goes, EEF were manlets, east European foragers massive
>it's obviously the east European ancestry overall making them tall
Shouldn't Russians, Ukrainians, Belarussians and even Romanians be taller then?
No they have a lot of Siberian ANE (not especially tall).
The tall gene is from local HGs
Yes
So why aren't north west euros taller, since they have more European hunter gatherer?
No moronic homosexual
Otherwise east slavs would be taller too but they are midgets
This
Not the same HG
No
Other way around
Mountain peoples tend to be short and wide like dwarfs
Balkaners are tall because of I/L haplogroup
An haplogroup shared with scandis
HGs where tall
HGs had bigger rounder skull
HGs had a tennis-ball more in frontal-brain power
Modern Dinaric Men are tall and have a very round big head
Farmers are smol domesticated little head creatures
Dinarics HGs population survived for long time by hiding in mountains raiding the farmers stealing their food
Other places where this happened the farmers eventually ganged up and killed the HGs
but Dinarics are very wide and big area unlike Pyerenes
>round
Dinaric men all have horse faces tho
And round face is neotonic
Not robust
>slavo
Slavs are not known to be tall
Its mostly because of local dna
>Dinaric men all have horse faces tho
I didnt say face I said the head look at the forehead
Bosnians heads look like a basketball
Illyrian genes best genes
Albanians confirmed not Illyrians
Albanians 100% Illyrian you smelly slavshit. Evidence is clear as day pic related.
>Albanians 100% Illyrian
Opinion of short men discarded
>short
Are you blind monkey?
Albanians 179, shorty
>Slavs are not known to be tall. Its mostly because of local dna
Come on anon, the extraordinary height is directly correlated with the distribution of the Balkan I2 variant. This I2 variant wasn't present in the Balkans during the Roman period and spread sometime during either the gothic or Slavic migrations, but more than likely both since goths were a part of the Slavic ethnogenesis and this haplogroup has cousins that are present in Ukrainians, poles, and Belarusians.
>goths were a part of the Slavic ethnogenesis
Ustasha go back to Italy you stink, Black person
From my experience, Dutch people seem to be the tallest
Proves the allegory about the Tower Of Babel. They're trying to touch heaven and angering God so its no wonder they're one of the most sinful areas of the world
I thought they were tall cause they were mountain men and the competition was fiercer.
>184 in Bosnia
Keep in mind most of those are Boomers and the war generation who lived in deprivation. The younger generation that had enough to eat are freaks of fricking nature.
No.
The height in the region is a result of a slavo-gothic population settling in the region sometime after the fall of Rome.
>bastarnae
>bastards
These guys were mega rapists. Our Albanian holy war is to exterminate these land thiefs.
EEF and HG are outdated theories from the early 90s.
>since Serbians and even Greeks to an extent are taller than most north Europeans?
You are probably confusing Gayreek swarthoids with Montenigerians, or some Gregh Albos.
If it’s all about l haplogroup then Scandinavia should be taller. Romania should be as tall. Belarus as tall. Germany has more l than Netherlands
They eat a lot of meat and kill each other often.
We had a serbian guy in our high school basketball team carry us every game dude was a beast only ever eat meat in every meal.
If you look up meat intake in Europe, dinaric alps countries are basically the lowest. Do they make up for it with eggs and dairy maybe?
Easy, stats are fake. Do you really buy into statistics from former communist countries?
Tall genes from genetically tall East Euro WHGs.
Tall genes came to them from paleo-balkans genome and slavic warrior culture accelerating selection for taller men
I tho that south europeans were short but i was looking the stats and they arent they are a bit shorter than north euros but they are the tallest people on the world
Yugoslavs are inferior barbarians, you can’t change my mind
I don’t disagree
Recent genetic studies regarding burials dating to the Avar age have just been published. Graves containing Germanic grave goods have been found in this context, most likely reflecting gothic/gepid/Lombard individuals who remained in Pannonia after the arrival of north-east Asian avar ruling class. The autosomal DNA of these “germanics” show them to be most similar to modern Serbian and other west Balkan populations. Tall, dinaricized phenotypes were probably introduced by goths and the other barbarian peoples that settled the north balkans and Pannonia in late antiquity. Donarci phenotypes are also common in north Italy, which has historically been the tallest regions of Italy and also supposedly had the highest amount of settlement by goths (Romagna) and lombards (Friuli)
>~~*Recent genetic studies*~~
avars are from north Caucasus region
graves containing G*rm goods just means the based Slavic Avars pillaged and raped the G*rms
