The African Mongoloid Race - San/Khoisan People

[East or West India Best]

This man is Ken Hirai, a popular Japanese singer and his family are from Northern Japan. Do you think he can be mistaken for South Asian? or Caucasian?

Definitely has a very Caucasian look to him, you do too. High nasal bridge that connects to forehead is a uniquely Caucasian trait. That with thicker eyebrows and facial hair, double eyelids, hair on arms, for sure.


The girl has a very middle eastern look and if the last guy told me he was Oriental I would be shocked. Japan is the Eastern most Caucasian frontier

It is due to our D2 chromosomes, which we have retained from our South Asian (Caucasian) ancestors. Just amazing how genetics plays a role , eh? Its been over 10,000 years since the first South Asian came to Japan, yet the genes still bears witness to their presence.

Actually most these "Caucasoid" looking Japanese got their pseudo-Caucasoid appearance from the Ainu people.

However, the Ainu people only carry the haplotype D, so there is in fact nothing Caucasoid about them.

Among the oriental countries such as China/Mongolia/Japan/Korea/Vietnam, only the Chinese and Mongolians do carry the haplotype R1a. However, there is nothing Caucasoid appearance on us despite we are the only East Asian nation along with Mongolia to carry the Indo-European haplotype.

There are also AINU people in Japan; these are the original colonizers of Japan. They do not look anything to 'typical Japanese' if you observe their facial features. The Ainu inhabit Northern Japan, used to inhabit all of Japanese Islands before the arrival of the Yayois (migrants from China and Korea) who eventually 'usurped' the islands from the Ainu.

Canadians don't say eh!

I'm more amazed that how far ancient man got around and the miniscule differences between man because of this gene flow. Had we not been so promiscuous there would be distinct sub-species (even full on species).

Are Ainu the people that generally give to 100 years old? I've heard there is an ethnicity in North Japan were people live to 100 on average.

It shows to you, buddy, we're all interconnected. The Family of Man.

Caucasoid genes are recessive. I've heard Chinese disliked Caucasian features until the British came. So any genes would be selected against and after a while it would disappear from your pop.

Yea amazing that only two subspecies of man exist: homo sapien sapiens and those guys from Australia.

LOL!

Yes, Ainu are one of those that live long, tho the Okinawans do, too. Ainu Japanese eat healthy, and they consume a lot of fish, as well as whales (a traditional food source), dolphins (a traditional food source). I guess the high intake of omega 3,6 from fish products helps to protect their hearts, and circulatory system from atherosclerosis and arteriosclerosis; all cardiovascular diseases.

 

[Ryuzaki]

Very interesting thread.Did not know about Mongoloid-Africans or Caucasian looking Japanese

You need the genetic framework for the environment to matter. For example, we Indians are very prone to heart disease. Healthy food may mitigate it to a degree, but it would be that much.

 

[ChineseTiger1986]

Tell me this AINU WOMAN does not look Caucasian:

I doubt this woman is actually an Ainu, definitely a westerner in the Ainu dress.

As for the rest, look pseudo-Caucasoid as I said, but genetically they are not Caucasoid at all.

Japanese have genetically zero percent of Caucasoid Y-DNA and mtDNA, those offsprings from the interracial marriage don't count.

Chinese have 3-5% of Indo-European Y-DNA, but we have zero percent of Indo-European mtDNA, thus we look nothing like them.

 

[Aepsilons]

For example, we Indians are very prone to heart disease.

Really? I never knew that, would it be linked to oil use in cooking? I do know that in Southern Indian cooking (such as in Tamil Nadu and Kerala) the local cuisine uses a lot of coconut oil and coconut milk , which are also very rich in cholesterol. Is coconut oil used prevalently in Central and Northern India?

We still prefer our own appearance nowadays.

Having sharp features doesn't mean you are Caucasoid.

The Mongoloid individuals with sharp features still look very different from the Caucasoid.

No, it's genetics.


AS FAR back as 1959, medical researchers in Singapore already reported a higher incidence of coronary heart disease among Indians.

A study by University of Malaya professor C.S. Muir published in the British Heart Journal in 1960 reports that based on a study of 552 deaths in Singapore, Indians here were 10 times more likely to die of heart disease than the Chinese or Malays.

Analysing the cord blood of about 1,000 newborns, NUS Associate Professor Heng Chew Kiat and his team of six researchers found that Indian babies have about three times the level of cholesterol and lipoprotein (a) – a type of cholesterol – than Chinese babies.

Indians and Heart Disease: Nature or nurture?



Actually our food is quite healthy. It's full of anti-oxidents and the oils we use are the healthiest. Save for restaurant food and snacks, we don't really use too much oil.

Very interesting. It is an example of the role of genetics and environment affecting the overall health of the individual. I guess in this case, its best to know one's family history and to take the necessary prophylactic steps to delay any onset of heart diseases. Its best to watch what we eat, and most importantly to have an active lifestyle with diet and exercise.
