Some similar Jomon shifted Japanese phenotypes

Likely a more common Jomon phenotype variant to Central and Southern Japan as opposed to Jomon shifted individuals from Northern Japan who have more affinities to Ainu phenotypes.

Amur River: the OG point for all Mongolic/Turkic/Tungusic/Koreanic/Japonic people and language?

All these groups I've mentioned all share a common ancestry that ties back to Amur River HG (Mongols have more of the Baikal however). If youve heard about the Transeurasian theory by researcher Martine Robbeets, the original homeland was speculated to be in Northern Manchuria.

As for the language itself, I find that Korean Japanese and Mongolian have the same melody when spoken. Not saying the words sound anything alike but they all seem to have same cadence especially when spoken formally like a newscast. Plus, going back on the Transeurasian theory they share identical grammar structure and agglutination.

It seems like Han Chinese is the only one out of East Asia/Northern Asia that don't fit into this club. We as a whole don't have Amur River (apart from Northern Han and that's a small percentage) nor does the language sound anything alike. If anything, Sinitic is closer to Tai-Kradai than to it's neighbors.

Now I have a question - between Korean and Japanese who has the most Amur River in them?

What phenotype likely was Charlie Kirk? He had strong E1b facial features from the Balkans, Levant and North Africa imo

I often used to picture his phenotype of physical features atypical for his ethnicity (likely American of Western European descent due to the surname “Kirk”)
He came across as exotic with a very Natufian-influenced skull shape that originated in the Levant —> Balkans to Western Europe through the Roman Empire. For example, in the British 6-8% of individual males have the paternal lineage (E-V13) which is linked to Natufian or Near East migration to the Balkans.

Thoughts?

Some unique Japanese phenotypes

The second image is an additional image of the guy in the middle of the first photo. How would you classify them/where could they pass.
