New and Exciting: The Racial Analysis Calculator

[AWAR]

This is what I got !?
Could that be right? I'm 180cm, very heavy-boned, light pigmented. Frans at Skadi classified me as Borreby.

I know I got a huge head, but is that result (endocranial 1954 ccm ) correct? From what I know, Europoids have around 1400ccm.

Results of Racial Analysis


Terminology is according to Vallois (1965). Endocranial volume is estimated according to the Pearson formula (Comas, 1960).


Your cephalic index is: 78 (mesocephalic)
Your height/length index is: 68.3 (hypsicephalic)
Your height/breadth index is: 87.5 (acrocephalic)
Your facial index is: 82.1 (euryprosopic)
Your upper facial index is: 53.6 (mesene)
Your nasal index is: 73.3 (mesorrhine)
Your estimated endocranial volume is: 1954 cc (aristencephalic)


Euclidean Distance Cosine Similarity
Proto-Europoid: 29 0.218
Mediterranoid: 33 -0.048
Alpinoid: 20 0.541
Irano-Nordoid: 34 -0.322
Dinaroid: 37 -0.463


Your classification is Alpinoid (using Euclidean distance) and Alpinoid (using Cosine similarity).

According to Euclidean Distance:

You are metrically closest to Plate 6, Figure 3 (distance = 14)
You are metrically furthest from Plate 41, Figure 3 (distance = 71)

According to Cosine Similarity:
You are metrically closest to Plate 6, Figure 3 (similarity = 0.677)
You are metrically furthest from Plate 46, Figure 3 (similarity = -0.858)

I did my results again and this time it was done as Dienekes recommended (with an aluminum folly ), and I am confident that bellow results are much more accurate than the previous ones I posted?

It turns out that I am dolichocephalic while my closest PIC is Borreby (weird, dolicochepalic and borreby - at the same time ; I am tall and heavybuild/not fat at all, at 1m90cm and 103kg ; I have brown hair and brown eyes and light skin, was blond as a child ; with heavy beard and medium body hair ).

note: I would still like Dienekes to analyze my results.

Your classification is Proto-Europoid (using Euclidean distance) and Proto-Europoid (using Cosine similarity).

Borrebys (My 'cranial cross', although certainly not my 'facial cross', is plate 1 in the above link whivch is same as plate 4 mentioned earlier in Euclidean Distance and Cosine Similarity)

CARPATHIAN AND BALKAN BORREBY-LIKE TYPES
www.legioneuropa.org/Racediv/CSCoon/Papers/p8.htm
(there they have other Borreby-like Montenegrins and number two would be much more similar facially to me, although I am younger, than any other pics in that site)

The five types listed in the results of your racial analysis represent five clusters discovered in a multivariate analysis of 152 individuals whose anthropometric measurements are given in the photographic supplement of Coon (1939). The names of the five clusters are arbitrary labels corresponding to traditional designations. They are based on metrical similarity based on nine variables of the head, and should not be interpreted as denoting "races".

I get the feeling that the Pearson formula tends to overestimate.

Your distance to your closest match (14) seems very high. I suspect something wrong with your measurements.

I think I did it right this time. I believe I am some sort of palaeolithic, autochtonous type of Montenegrin. I measured some other people in the same way, and no one got weird results as I did.

Here, compare the measurements to some photos of me:



You can see that I have a short nose that has a wavy form, both convex and concave. I have a very tall head, with a flattened occupit, and a weirdly sloping forehead, with strong 'bulbs' over my eyebrows.

[AWAR]

Hey, Zetaman, are you a montenegrin too?

[Zetaman]

Pozdrav Care,

Yes I am Montenegrin also (Serb from Montenegro)

ps: I though that ZETAman would give that away (my serbian internet nickname is Zecanin while Zetaman is its English translation).

[skord]

The more Serbs here,the better

[AWAR]

Pozdrav i tebi care!
Veruj mi, i ja sam protiv ovih novih tendencija u CG, po kojima Crnogorci nisu Srbi. Ja sam poreklom iz CG, a zivim u Srbiji.

Odlican ti je nickname, Zetaman!

Aj sad po English:

I think that there is some totally specific type of Montenegrin Cro-Magnid that only resembles borreby. What would you say about that? ( That's why I got weird results ). BTW. I'm 25 yrs old.

So, how are those who measured themselves happy with the results they got?

Makes more sense than anything I have heard from others who have classified me from two(low quality) pics,except dalonord,a moderator on skadi, classified me the same as my result from the calculator,strange...

As for me, it makes more sense than the previous classifications that I'm a mongoloid/capoid ;D

[Zetaman]

Even the body proportions are telling me Borreby-like Montenegrin type (Dinaric like long legs, small trunk and borreby like robust consitution, ROOOAR I feel like a bear, a Montenegrin Bear ).

Hey, Zetaman, we have similar results again!
I do lift weights a lot, that's why I got such a huge chest circumference and body weight.

Yay! I got one right!

I was wondering if you are 'Skord'...
