Removal of population with full or partial "Mongoloid" origin
I have reinstated the information regarding the Mongoloid admixture in various populations of the world. I have done this simply because this page is speaking about the historical term "Mongoloid" and having a look at the sources you will realise that some of these groups were classified as "part Mongoloid" which warrants their inclusion in this article. This page is not, and has never been, about "pure Mongoloids" as that doesn't make sense considering the fact that this is an outdated term no longer used in the scientific community. This page is about who was classified as "full Mongoloid" and who was classified as "part Mongoloid" by various anthropologists of the time. You need to take note of the fact that anthropology is spoken about in these sections. e.g. "Katz and Suchey (1986) did a study separat[ing] the Mexicans who had a Mongoloid appearance from those who had a Caucasoid physical appearance" as seen in the "Mestizos in Latin America" section. "British ethnographer, Herbert Hope Risley classified the people of the Ganges Delta up to Bihar as "Mongolo-Dravidian" or the "Bengali type" and "Howard S. Stoudt noted that the Sinhalese differed to the Indian Tamils because they were large chested with more Mongoloid faces" both of which are found in the "South Asians" section. Please read the sections before you start removing information and no, this page is not limited to people who are "full Mongoloid" or of "predominantly Mongoloid" origin. This page is about Mongoloids, people who are full Mongoloid or partial Mongoloid as classified by anthropologists at the time the term was widely used. If you want to discuss your thoughts on all of this, then we can talk in this section. I also think inviting Ephert (talk · contribs) who has successfully gathered of all of this information and carefully chosen the correct pieces of information for this article should also be invited to discuss the situation. I understand you're speaking about anthropology only, but even that alone, would mean pieces of information found in some of these sections you deleted must be kept.(2001:8003:4E67:F600:55F3:B57B:17FB:4569 (talk) 02:23, 25 September 2019 (UTC))
- I agree with the IP editor’s reinstatement of the content regarding Mongoloid admixture that was removed by User:DerekHistorian.--Ephert (talk) 08:00, 26 September 2019 (UTC)
- Referring to the content that User:DerekHistorian removed, User:DerekHistorian, in their edit summary, said, "I'm removing these sections. I think these sections are way too much, they should only apply to Mongoloid and predominate Mongoloid anthropologically. genetically," indicating that User:DerekHistorian believes that a greater than 50% (predominate) Mongoloid standard should be the standard for a population's inclusion in the Mongoloid article. I disagree with the greater than 50% Mongoloid standard that User:DerekHistorian is proposing. I agree with the following statement by the IP editor, "...this page is not limited to people who are 'full Mongoloid' or of 'predominantly Mongoloid' origin." I think that populations with 50% and lower Mongoloid percentages are relevant to the Mongoloid article. I think that populations with Mongoloid admixture are relevant to the Mongoloid article.--Ephert (talk) 09:21, 26 September 2019 (UTC)
- None of the sections there are partial Mongoloid. They don't belong the Mongoloid SKULL SHAPE anthropologically nor genetically. So how are they Mongoloid? All these people all they have is minor Mongoloid DNA. If you're going to add partial Mongoloid why not add partial Black/Negroid where it's DNA is present in Europe, Middle east, North Africa, Latin America. Why not also add a partial Caucasoid where it's DNA is also present in half of Africa, all the middle east, North Africa, parts of Asia. Why not add partial South Asian which.
- ACCORDING TO THIS GENETIC AUTOSOMAL DNA. Central Asians, Southeast Asians, Middle east people should also be partial racially South Asian Indian/Pakistani genetically. They are as South Asian as East European Finns, Saami are Mongoloid https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Jueri_Parik/publication/8373878/figure/fig10/AS:267942692651040@1440893924678/The-spatial-distribution-of-Indian-specific-mtDNA-haplogroups-R5-and-R6-and-West.png
- This is what wikipedia lead section already mentioned " Due to covering a large and diverse population, from Native Americans to Vietnamese, the Mongoloid classification is difficult, but Mongoloids do share some similar skeletal and dental features.[8] "
- None of those sections of groups belong to the Mongoloid or predominately Mongoloid except for example like Kazakh, Kyrgyz from Central Asia.
- I'm removing these sections. I think these sections are way too much, they should only apply to Mongoloid and predominate Mongoloid anthropologically. genetically. Finns, Sami, Iranians are racially Europoid 90-95% with minor Mongoloid. Almost all the South Asians are Europoid/Dravidian-Australoid with tiny Mongoloid 5% except for some ethnic groups who are not even typical South Asia. Many Turkic ethnic groups are basically Caucasoid with minor Mongoloid. Meztizo can be also 70-90% European or African/European mix not necessarily Mongoloid, they also have African admixtures in different levels. DerekHistorian (talk) 7:52, 25 September 2019 (UTC)
- @DerekHistorian: I'm sorry but you sound extremely ignorant. Since when did this page ever speak about "pure Mongoloids"? The answer is, it never did. The fact that you literally say that Southeast Asians are mixed Indian and Pakistanis shows me that you don't know what you're talking about. Also, Middle Easterners have no Indian and Pakistani ancestry, neither do Central Asians. Also, since when did "South Asian" equal "Indians/Pakistani"? For your information, there is also no such thing called "Europid". Also 5% Mongoloid? There is no such thing called "Mongoloid genes". You obviously are very confused over this topic because you're conflating a dated racial classification with modern science. Where are you getting this information from? You say this is about anthropology, did you even read my initial comment? If you did, you would know that certain anthgropologists classified certain groups as "part Mongoloid" because they exhibit "Mongoloid" charactersitics and I included some examples of this, pulled from the text that you deleted, in my initial comment. Stop being stubborn and take the time to read every single section on that page before you remove content. Have you done that? No you haven't because if you did, you would have not deleted all of the information. All you have done is remove a whole of information with a whole lot of sources. If you continue with this behaviour, and fail from actually reading the content in each section beyond just the sub-heading, I will be going to the Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard or Wikipedia:Dispute resolution to seek mediation. Also, the fact that you reverted my edit a second time means that you're borderline entering an edit war and that's against the rules. This page is about the historical classification called "Mongoloid" and that includes every group classified as "pure Mongoloid" as well as those that are classified as "partial Mongoloid". Read the content that you have deleted in a timely manner or I will be getting external help to resolve this matter. Also do not yell in edit summaries.

- Firstable what is the point of cherrypicking outdated pseudo-science anthropology information that were removed since 2011. This wikipedia should be about skeletal skulls of Mongoloid people but none of those people from section belong to Mongoloid. The lead section already said this " Due to covering a large and diverse population, from Native Americans to Vietnamese, the Mongoloid classification is difficult, but Mongoloids do share some similar skeletal and dental features.[8] " For example the part about "Howard S. Stoudt noted that the Sinhalese differed to the Indian Tamils because they were large chested with more Mongoloid faces" is such a superficial pseudo-science. Including the other pseudo-science source. There are many sources that does not even claim Native American have Mongoloid skulls.
- You are including racially people like Finns, Saami, Iranians who have about as much East Asian as Arabs, Middle easterner people, South Europeans have have Sub-Saharan black admixture.
- Here is the East Asian autosomal DNA. By your logic all people from Southern Europe, Eastern Europe, North Europe, Middle east even up to Egypt should be considered part Mongoloid since their mongoloid admixture range to various degrees https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-p_vcmYwVYSM/Vg7EbAJH1VI/AAAAAAAAo6s/wfPGWbolbW8/s1600/East-Asian.gif
- The green colored map shows South Asian DNA admixture dominant in the Indian continent but is also widespread to Southeast Asia, Middle east, parts of Southern Arabia and southern Central Asia, and Xinijiang China by your logic these people be partially South Asians, the study is from science journal. ::: https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Jueri_Parik/publication/8373878/figure/fig10/AS:267942692651040@1440893924678/The-spatial-distribution-of-Indian-specific-mtDNA-haplogroups-R5-and-R6-and-West.png , the study shows Middle easterner, Iranians, Central Asian also have South Asian admixture not just being Caucasoid with minor Mongoloid.

- @DerekHistorian: blogs are not reliable sources. Nigos (talk • Contribs) 00:22, 26 September 2019 (UTC)
- @DerekHistorian: Of course it’s a pseudoscience source because Mongoloid is a pseudoscience term. All the sources that confirm Native Americans to Vietnamese are "Mongoloids" were confirmed by pseudoscience journals and articles like "The Living Races of Man". Why are you conflating modern genetics with pseudoscience terms like “Mongoloid”? There is no such thing called “Mongoloid”. Modern genetics uses terms like “Eastern Eurasian”, “South Eurasian” and “West Eurasian”, not terms like Mongoloid or Europid. Your inability to discern modern genetics from pseudoscience renders this discussion useless. You have removed sourced content on a pretext that does not make any sense, simply because of the fact that “Mongoloid” is a dated term from a bygone era. Not to mention, the fact you pulled out blogs as a way to back up what you’re saying. Blogs are not a reliable source. Mongoloid is an outdated term and this page discusses every group that is of full or partial Mongoloid origin as classified by the pseudoscience sources published during the era this term was considered accurate. I don't know what you're on about when you're talking about "skeletal structure" because this is an outdated term. You have read absolutely nothing of what you have deleted. So based on that, I’m going to revert your edits because nothing of what you’re saying is justifiable. You’re obviously confused over what “Mongoloid” is. If you still feel you’re in the right, then I am happy to seek mediation on this issue and establish clarity over the fact that “Mongoloid” is an outdated term rooted in pseudoscience.
- What ethnic groups do you think these people come from? 1, 2 and 3. I'll give you the answer, the first is of a girl from the Guaraní (Native American) tribe of South America, the second is of a famous Bengali singer and the third is of a Sinhalese actress. Anthropologists of the 19th century classified people from all of these groups as either "full Mongoloid" or as "partial Mongoloid". This page isn't about skull shapes, it's about groups that were classified as being fully or partially part of the outdated Mongoloid racial classification by various anthropologists throughout history. So stop trying to turn this page into something that it is not.
- Also, no that source does not indicate they have South Asian admixture. They display the distribution of certain haplogroups. Haplogroups are not necessarily connected to someone’s ethnic origins. Please, you don’t even know what you’re quoting or saying. You’re just pulling random maps, yet have no understanding of what they’re explaining. You obviously have absolutely no idea of what you’re talking about. This discussion is absolutely pointless. There is no need to engage in a discussion with someone that obviously does not have an understanding of human genetics.

- So since you acknowledge it's pseudo-science, why why did you include groups that are not even anthropologically East Eurasian nor genetically. If you were so interested in pseudo-Mongoloid traits why didn't you include Capoid people ?
- Capoid described by anthropologist as sharing some superficial similarity with Mongoloid such as the epicanthic eye fold and flat noses
- Look here --->[1]
- The occasional occurrence of Mongoloid or pseudo-Mongoloid eyefolds in some African Negroes and particularly in the Capoids.
- Earnest Albert Hooton - 1946 -
- what's the point of making examples of your superficial Bengali individuals that could even be just supeficial pseudo-mongoloid. You selected Bengali that looks like 1 in a million when 99.99% of them look like these---> [2] typical of Indian/Pakistani looking type of people.
- Even places like North Africa who are 82% Caucasoid 18% Black African can look pseudo-Mongoloid and mentioned even by historians. Pseudo-mongoloid Berbers? Epicanthal eye fold or slanted eyes are found in some Berbers of North Africa, a region without mongoloid admixture. Since admixture from East-Asians is impossible in North Africa, some authors described this feature as Khoisanid.
- Go ahead an look at the pictures. You should be stating that North Africans are also part Mongolois
- http://www.forumbiodiversity.com/showthread.php?t=32676
- And it is mention Towards the north " aethiopian ", pygmoid and pseudo-mongoloid types become more numerous.
- Bantu, Issue 1 --- Source [3]
- Famous singer Bjrork from iceland known fro her pseudo-Mongoloid traits when both her parents are clearly white
- [4]
- How does that source not indicate South Asian admixture? That was only a example of their South Asian mtDNA haplogroups distribution, I didn't even edit their Y-DNA haplogroups. This autosomal DNA shows Iranian Tajiks than Mongoloid. By your logic every race in the world is mixed because most people in the world have a bit of DNA of that and this. Source --->[5]

- @DerekHistorian: This page is about Mongoloid, an outdated racial term. It has nothing to do with East Eurasian which is a genetic component that originated in Eastern Asia. This page speaks about every group that was classified as full or partial Mongoloid in origin. All groups that were classified as full or partial Mongoloid must be included on this page. You can't just pick and choose what you want and conflate modern genetics with pseudoscience terms.
- "superficial pseudo-mongoloid"? I'm sorry but that doesn't make sense. For your information, they're not. Let me explain, one of the major populations that settled in South Asia were the Austro-Asiatic-speaking migrants from mainland Southeast Asia. They brought Austro-Asiatic languages to South Asia and that's why Austro-Asiatic languages are spoken in parts of eastern and northeastern India, Bangladesh and Nepal. Their ancestral component is known as Ancestral Austro-Asiatic (AAA), this element was introduced to various other ethnic groups in eastern South Asia like the Bengalis. The smallest of the major migrations to eastern India and Bangladesh was the Tibeto-Burman-speakers from Tibet. They brought Tibeto-Burman languages to Northeast India. Their ancestral component is known as Ancestral Tibeto-Burman (ATB) and this element was introduced to other groups in eastern South Asia at a smaller scale. Did you know any of that? No you did not. No, it doesn't indicate South Asian admixture on a large scale at least. Please educate yourself on what Y-DNA and mtDNA haplogroups are. Also, why on earth has this discussion turned to genetics when Mongoloid has nothing to do with genetics? Mongoloid is an outdated racial term from the 19th century. Speaking about modern genetics means nothing here. We follow what the anthropologists said based on their observations. So all of this content coming from you makes no sense because you don't decide what is included and what is not. We follow what the sources say and it says that the Bengalis, for example, were classified as "part Mongoloid" whilst the Native Americans were classified as "full Mongoloids". This is a page about an outdated term and as a result, this page will reflect it as such. So stop disrupting this page with your obviously misinformed beliefs that modern genetics and outdated terms like Mongoloid are correlated. Mongoloid and the other historical racial classifications are outdated biological taxons that are no longer in use anymore. In due time, I will be reverting your edits and restoring the last stable version of this page. If you revert them again, I shall then open a case with the help of the administrators to settle this matter in an official manner.

- I'll tell you this, there's no point arguing about this stuff. This page has been created through the use of sources. You're just purposely avoiding a swathe of sources in order to push whatever your beliefs are regarding this topic. Well you can't do that here on Wikipedia. Like I said, we follow what the sources say. Doesn't matter if they're "full" or "partial" or only have a "sliver", if they were classified as "Mongoloid" in anthropological studies, then they're included. There's no point trying to ignore what the sources say.
- Conclusion This page is about an outdated racial term called "Mongoloid". All of the pieces of information on this page reflect the archaic way of determining race during the time this term was widely used. As a result, all populations that have been classified as full or partial Mongoloid origin by various anthropologists of the time have been discussed on this page.

- I suppose you didn't even bother looking at this autosomal DNA. http://i.4pcdn.org/pol/1398888033132.png] many ethnic groups from Middle east, Arabia, Central Asia are mixed with South Asian genetically and Tajiks have more South Asian DNA than Mongoloid. South Asians are only 5-10% Mongoloid for Bengali 15-20% compared to North Africans who are 18-21% Black Sub-Saharan. Even if Mongoloid is a outdated racial terms there's no need to include people that look superficially pseudo-mongoloid. The Native Americans, Jomon, Ainu, Taiwan aborigines are Mongoloid with pseudo-caucasian traits too. Now as for real biracial, even ussually people who are 3/4 white and 1/4 black or Mongoloid always almost end up look white let alone those who are 4/5 white. THOSE Iranians, South Asians, and many of the Turkic group are not part Mongoloid, they have have minor Mongoloid influences. I'm not denying that Bengali, Indians, South Asian have Mongoloid admixture but it's not significant enough to make them consider biracials or even part Mongoloid. Native Americans in many anthropology are not even classified as full Mongoloid. "Great Surprise"—Native Americans Have West Eurasian Origins
- Oldest human genome reveals less of an East Asian ancestry than thought. BY BRIAN HANDWERK, NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC. PUBLISHED NOVEMBER 22, 2013
- Nearly one-third of Native American genes come from west Eurasian people linked to the Middle East and Europe, rather than entirely from East Asians as previously thought, according to a newly sequenced genome. Source---> [6]Based on the arm bone of a 24,000-year-old Siberian youth, the research could uncover new origins for America's indigenous peoples, as well as stir up fresh debate on Native American identities, experts say. Although these claims are controversial. Many Native Americans even without west Eurasian admixture don't look like the typical Mongoloid people you see. For example Haplogroup X is also one of the five haplogroups found in the indigenous peoples of the Americas.[12] (namely, X2a subclade). Although it occurs only at a frequency of about 3% for the total current indigenous population of the Americas, it is a bigger haplogroup in northern North America, where among the Algonquian peoples it comprises up to 25% of mtDNA types.[13][14] It is also present in lesser percentages to the west and south of this area—among the Sioux (15%), the Nuu-chah-nulth (11%–13%), the Navajo (7%), and the Yakama (5%)[15]. mtDNA X is either part of the East Asian migrants of Native America but the haplogroup itself is not east Asian origin but it could have already existed in native americans. The distribution of R1 in Native Americanis believed by some to be associated with the re-settlement of Eurasia following the last glacial maximum. One theory that was introduced during European colonization.[42] or both. Overall they are 2/3 genetically East Eurasian but even their East Eurasian is properly not typical of people from Asia's East Eurasian. Many Amerindians tribes with 0% west Eurasian admixture still look pseudo-caucasian. That mal'ta boy who introduced west eurasian genetics to native American look predominate east asian mongoloid too. THIS WHOLE WIKIPEDIA PAGE only cherrypicked sources that classified them as Mongolians/Mongoloid no the sources from back than 2010-2014 which mentions many Native Americans and Amerindians having pseudo-caucasoid morphology-DerekHistorian (talk) 7:58, 26 September 2019 (UTC)
- @DerekHistorian: If you want to talk about genetics then please go to a forum, this is Wikipedia. Okay but I'm sorry, your thoughts and feelings on who you think is of partial Mongoloid origin and who is not doesn't change the facts published in the source. We follow what is published in the source. Also, just so you know, I'm not saying that Bengalis and other South Asians are "biracial" people. I'm merely explained to you two particular migrations that intermixed with other migrations of humans that created the people of South Asia. What I'm saying is they have diverse origins.

- Many groups have intermixed but they still have their own racial classifications and genetics. You're using pseudo-science sources. Uyghurs for example range in phenotype to Mongoloid to Caucasoid unlike Bengali who all look like typical of India, Pakistan. DerekHistorian (talk) 8:29, 26 September 2019 (UTC)
- I'm using pseudoscience sources because this article is about a pseudoscience topic. What else am I supposed to use? This whole article is about a pseudoscience topic, the vast majority of the sources listed on this page are pseudoscience sources. Also, I'm not a Bengali but you may be surprised by what you learn about them if you actually took the time to read about the genetic history of the Bengal region. Not to mention the diversity in their apperance, they don't all look the same (It's actually quite interesting). (2001:8003:4E67:F600:8014:D8B6:B260:511F (talk) 14:30, 26 September 2019 (UTC))
- Posting to an old thread, I would like to correct the IP that [7] is not an ethnic Bengali person. He is of Manipuri and Tripuri tribal descent. It should be noted that a lot of tribals were influenced by the Bengali culture including Manipuris and Tripuris. As for genetics, admixture tests depend on individual calculators. According to one 23andMe calculator, all typically South Asians including Bangladeshis scored most 98+% of "South Asian" with fractional percentages of foreign origin. As for other tests, the 'Bengalis' are actually BEB samples of Bangladeshi Muslim Bengalis from Dhaka, taken from 1000 genome project. It should be noted that since Bangladesh uses "Bangalee" as a nationalistic term, they can be from other sources too. Even among ethnic Bengalis, there is a sharp difference when east Eurasian component is concerned. The Bengali Muslims of Bangladesh typically average around 12 percent in Harappa, Lazaridis, and recent calculators, similar to Burushos or a little higher than Tajiks. The Hindu Bengali Brahmins and Bangaldeshi low-caste hindu Bengalis show much less, ranging from less than 1 to 5 percent in Harappa, averaging around 3-4 percent in a recent calculator, similar to Khatris, Rors, Jats; less than Kashmiri Pandits, Khos, Kalash and Jammu Brahmins. I can provide the reports. It should be noted that the classification of eastern south Asians is similar to that of eastern Europeans, Baltics in the 19th - early 20th century based on brachycephaly and supposed east Eurasian admixture, as a ploy to call them inferior. The British time classification were not just pseudoscience, they were a political tool as well to befriend new groups and alienate other ones. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 12:51, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
- Okay I stand corrected in regards to your first sentence. As for the rest of your comment, I don't know what you're trying to achieve. It's a fact that Bengalis have East Eurasian admixture (which you are obviously also aware of and you literally mention in your comment), all this other stuff you're talking about however looks to me that you aren't exactly fond of it and are trying to downplay it. For what reason? I don't know why but Wikipedia is not the place to be having discussions on your feelings. (101.182.40.99 (talk) 11:32, 6 February 2020 (UTC))
- This thread seemed very much forumish when I stumbled upon it. I'm not interested in pseudo-scientific crap but when people bring genetics and incorrectly labelled pictures in the midst, I had to talk a little. I'm not downplaying anything, just that I don't like exaggeration of things, a narrative propagated by some 19th pseudoscientists that east Eurasian is only restricted to eastern India. Similar to what people presume when they talk about eastern Europeans, Balts and some Scandinavians. It is a fact that East Eurasian is notable throughout the northern South Asia (Indo-European speakers) and is significant in the populations that I explained above. Since you talked about AAA component, in a test, the BEB (Bangladeshi Muslims from Dhaka) showed it at 17.2%, PJL 1 (Pakistani Punjabis in Lahore) 17.3%, GIH 1 (Gujaratis from Houston) 13.8, Telugus in UK 16.5 to 20.7 %, Sri Lankan Tamils in UK. 17.8%. The Bangladeshis didn't show any elevated levels of AAA compared to other geographically distant groups in South Asia. In another research from the same lab, Santhals showed 64% AAA. These ancestral components like AAA ATB are artificial constructs based on proxies from modern populations. Birhors for AAA and Jamatias for ATB, for whom the numbers are fixated. It gets inherently flawed when we take living samples to simulate ancient DNA. When used with real aDNA like "LAO LN La364" (ancient samples from Laos) as a proxy for Austro-Asiatic used in modern G25 calculator, these very samples showed much lower for example PJL (Punjabis from Lahore) 1.67, BEB (Bangladeshi) 4.17. Even Austroasiatic Santhals only 20% and even Birhor 20.83%. Ironically fully ATB Jamatias showed 30+ percent LN LAO. Contrary to what you said, the east Eurasian in major South Asian population is mostly of Indo-Tibetan origin (NPL Chokhopani) (aDNA from Nepal's Chokhopani). For all these groups above, viz Khatris, Rors, Jats, Kashmiri Pandits, Khos, Kalash, Khos, Jammu Brahmins, Bengali Brahmins, Burushos, Pathans, Bangladeshis, Burushos, Tajiks, Gujaratis, etc. It likely entered in the genepool at the time when Buddhism was spreading, Indo-Greeks, Mauryan Empire, Pala Empire, etc or might have come as part of steppe migrations. Personally I'm not fond of samples taken from 1000 Genome, since these are not diverse, not to mention, the Gujarati, Tamil and Telugu samples were taken from non-resident south Asians, which is likely to bring more inaccuracies. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 09:31, 8 March 2020 (UTC)

The Bengali Muslims of Bangladesh typically average around 12 percent in Harappa, Lazaridis, and recent calculators, similar to Burushos or a little higher than Tajiks. The Hindu Bengali Brahmins and Bangaldeshi low-caste hindu Bengalis show much less, ranging from less than 1 to 5 percent in Harappa, averaging around 3-4 percent in a recent calculator, similar to Khatris, Rors, Jats; less than Kashmiri Pandits, Khos, Kalash and Jammu Brahmins. I can provide the reports. It should be noted that the classification of eastern south Asians is similar to that of eastern Europeans, Baltics in the 19th - early 20th century based on brachycephaly and supposed east Eurasian admixture, as a ploy to call them inferior. The British time classification were not just pseudoscience, they were a political tool as well to befriend new groups and alienate other ones. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 12:51, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
- I'm using pseudoscience sources because this article is about a pseudoscience topic. What else am I supposed to use? This whole article is about a pseudoscience topic, the vast majority of the sources listed on this page are pseudoscience sources. Also, I'm not a Bengali but you may be surprised by what you learn about them if you actually took the time to read about the genetic history of the Bengal region. Not to mention the diversity in their apperance, they don't all look the same (It's actually quite interesting). (2001:8003:4E67:F600:8014:D8B6:B260:511F (talk) 14:30, 26 September 2019 (UTC))
- Many groups have intermixed but they still have their own racial classifications and genetics. You're using pseudo-science sources. Uyghurs for example range in phenotype to Mongoloid to Caucasoid unlike Bengali who all look like typical of India, Pakistan. DerekHistorian (talk) 8:29, 26 September 2019 (UTC)
- @DerekHistorian: If you want to talk about genetics then please go to a forum, this is Wikipedia. Okay but I'm sorry, your thoughts and feelings on who you think is of partial Mongoloid origin and who is not doesn't change the facts published in the source. We follow what is published in the source. Also, just so you know, I'm not saying that Bengalis and other South Asians are "biracial" people. I'm merely explained to you two particular migrations that intermixed with other migrations of humans that created the people of South Asia. What I'm saying is they have diverse origins.

Map from the Horniman museum is correct
Dear user: Rsk6400 ! Why do you call the map outdated? The Caucasian , Mongoloid, Negroid and Australoid groups of races exist accoriding to the genetic distances of various ethnic groups based on autosomal genetic researches.--Liltender (talk) 17:28, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
