Like I already said, this person's ethnicity is not very clear. But some people guessed right : This person has distant italian and french, very distant greek and probably a tiny fraction of hungarian.

I started this thread because this person has never known his full ancestry composition and want to know what other people think

Thank you for you answers

The majority of the jewish people are originally from the Levant, they practiced endogamy for hundreds of years so, even now, some jews can sometimes look different from the other people of the country (for example, polish jewish will have more chances to be brown eyed than the other polish people, even if now it is really difficult to make the difference beetween jewish and non-jewish european)

And thank you for your answer

This is why I thought this thread would have fared better in the Genealogy forum.

I wanted to post this thread in the genealogy forum but I thougt that too many people would tell me "this is not an anthropology forum" rather than answering the question. So in "other topics" nobody can question this thread's position and focuse on the subject

I've seen these type of threads posted in Fashion and Beauty. The OT forum becomes a catch all for too many odd threads. Genealogy is the best fit in my opinion. Even the World forum might be a better choice. The mods will of course decide in the end. Sounds as if your questions have been answered anyway..

I saw that some people were bothered by the anthropological questions on the genealogy forum. So I wanted to avoid to annoy anybody by posting this thread here. Apparently it failed... Sorry about that then

And yes I think it has been answered But I'm still curious to know if there is any other guess
