 imgur.com/gallery/hIGAXHvNot all of these can pass directly/as-is, but I don't see anything super off with their facial structures so they'd at least be structurally adjacent |

shirvanshah Here are some selected Xi'an/Shaanxi street people In your opinion, could they pass in Thailand?       Please compare not their aesthetics (eg. skin, styling etc.) but their baseline facial morphology to the Mlabri people in that picture. Do you see what I mean by facial structure adjacency? Ie. if you took some of those Mlabri, actually fed them well, raised them with better dental care, and not in the wilderness, they could potentially look rather similar?

 Another thing is that Thais like eg. right absolutely do not pass in NW China. Somehow their facial structure might actually be more distal than those Austroasiatic hill tribes. I suspect this is due to having different components (direct Austronesian, maybe some sort of more eastern HG) which aren't found much in NW Chinese |

The Tsou people (who are often used in these pictures) were documented in the 1900s to have the most prominent nose bridges in Taiwan. This means they might have the most prominent nose bridges in Asia. Tsou language poem reading |

 Way's perception of some Tibetans he met, what are your thoughts Throw? The Tsou appear to oftentimes have a retracted mouth area and that prominent nose area. |

View AttachmentWay's perception of some Tibetans he met, what are your thoughts Throw? The Tsou appear to oftentimes have a retracted mouth area and that prominent nose area. I agree with this, though some southern Tibetans do look "aesthetically" off from Han (eg. they look like some zhongyuanoid to loess plateau type but too dark and with curly hair) Also for some reason Khampas might have longer faces than Amdowa Also I think currently Tibetans are broader-faced compared to Shaanbei/Jinbei farmers but the most recent Hequ pic graduates tbh have the same proportions as Tibetan monks now. So their faces might be similar widthed |

Yes, I suspect that bulk Tibetans are not as "horsefaced" as certain eastern northern chinese for sure, they may be more prone to this compact structure.

I recently noticed that many mammals living in Tibet/western China/southern Central Asia looked weirdly square   Do these animals share facial morphology with western east asians |

 Hequ climate. This is colder than what I expected. Are there any research climatic influences on phenotypes? |

Haha, finally revealing that you frequent Tieba regularly, no wonder why your claims are very similar to the ones made by Sinocentrists there. |

Indeed regarding those ancient samples from Laos. Heck, even the isolated Mlabri and Htin tribes represented the original Austroasiatic better than the Wa.  For some reason I still find these Mlabri somewhat passable in places like Gansu... they somehow look more similar to certain northwestern Han than Tai-Kradai/Viets do? I think none of them is passable in Gansu. I haven't met that many Gansu people, but the ones I've met or seen look no different from other Northern Chinese. |

Nose shape, facial structure, and eye region are different. The Tibetan guy probably passes better as Native American than Austroasiatic peoples such as Mlabri, Mons, Bahnar, or Khmer. Here's a picture of three Mon girls, I don't think they look Tibetan, Gansu, or Northern Chinese at all.  |
