I've lived in both the UK and Australia most of the southern immigrants are as tall as the Anglos. Anglos are not as tall as Germans or Scandianvians. Anglos are relatively short for northern europeans.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15974930426740907923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6191565439230824899.post-50723760573420268242015-08-25T04:39:54.233-07:002015-08-25T04:39:54.233-07:00However, the authors also point out that Y-chromos...However, the authors also point out that Y-chromosome haplogroup I-M170 shows a strong correlation with the highest average stature on the continent, and speculate that the link between the two might be Upper Paleolithic hunter-gatherer ancestry: <a href="http://liftheightinsoles.com/shoe-lifts-for-men" rel="nofollow">shoe lifts for men</a><br /> Elizabeth J.

The average Italian male in Southern Italy is 5'8 but 42% of the ethnic Italian population lives in Tuscany and all the regions above it, the real figure is 51% of Italians live in those regions but I am assuming 5 million of them are non-italian immigrants and that is probably a overly high estimate for that 5 million.SargonPrimarishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10480152125526068841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6191565439230824899.post-63797945115345856802014-10-07T19:18:51.501-07:002014-10-07T19:18:51.501-07:00Read an article in a GErman newspaper about an exp...Read an article in a GErman newspaper about an experiment of the University of Exeter who checked the DNA of 250.000 Europeans about how DNA affect height.<br /><br />It claims height deptends to 80% on DNA and to 20% on diet and envoirement.<br /><br />It says that 700 variants in 400 regions of the genome apear to affect height.Fantyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07969348276219179258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6191565439230824899.post-19323900574523941872014-09-29T05:46:49.304-07:002014-09-29T05:46:49.304-07:00"the 'dianric alps' study was made in..."the 'dianric alps' study was made in Croatia, dalmatian towns, not BiH"<br /><br />No. It included Herzegovina.

Linking unusually high average height...Which part?<br /><br />Linking unusually high average height with haplogroup I-M170 and Upper Paleolithic ancestry in Europe is probably wrong anyway, because the high frequencies of I in the Balkans are most likely due to founder effect during the medieval period as a result of Slavic migrations into the Balkans from what is now eastern Poland and western Ukraine.Davidskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04637918905430604850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6191565439230824899.post-27623112595082910522014-08-13T14:57:32.562-07:002014-08-13T14:57:32.562-07:00My sons (mixed French Canadian and Italian) compla...My sons (mixed French Canadian and Italian) complain about their lack of height - and they were well fed.
