Negroid Phenotypes Written

Dinkaid (Nilotid)

Black skin and kinky hair. Very tall, the tallest of all modern phenotypes. Hyperbrachyskelic, extremely ectomorph with thin hips and rather gracile upper bodies. (Hyper-)dolichocephalic, mildly hypsicranic. Wider faces than Shillukid. Mildly platyrrhine, the forehead steep, the lips full and the chin sturdy. In some individuals, pseudo-Mongoloid eyes can appear. Prognathy is weak or absent.

Pre Nilotid (Nilotid)

Black skin and kinky, sometimes tight-curly hair. Medium height, brachyskelic, but with a longer torso than Nilotids proper, ectomorph to mesomorph. Mesocephalic with a very wide, flat face, and a great interorbital distance. Mildly platyrrhine nose. The nasal root is depressed and wide, the forehead steep, the chin marked. Prognathy is moderate.

East Sudanid (Sudanid)

Dark brown, sometimes black skin, usually kinky hair. Tall, long-legged and mesomorph. Mesocephalic, sometimes dolichocephalic, mildly hypsicranic. (Hyper-)platyrrhine nose. The face is large with relatively narrow eyelids and bulging lips. The frontoparietal region is flattened. Prognathy is moderate, body hair weak.

Sudanid (proper)

Dark brown, sometimes ebony black skin, usually kinky hair. (Rather) tall, (hyper)brachyskelic and mesomorph. Mostly dolichocephalic or mildly mesocephalic, mildly hypsicranic. (Hyper-)platyrrhine. The face is large with big eyes and massive, bulging lips. Occiput and prognathy are usually pronounced. Body hair extremely weak.

Congolesid (Congolid)

Dark brown, sometimes light brown skin. Kinky, rarely peppercorn hair. Rather short, mesoskelic with an endomorph to mesomorph body. Meso- sometimes brachycephalic, orthocranic. Large, angular face with prominent cheekbones. (Hyper-)platyrrhine funnel-shaped nose with an extremely depressed root. Lips thinner than in Sudanids, body hair stronger. Occiput flat. Prognathous with a receding chin.

Mountain Dama (Congolid)

(Bluish) black skin with kinky or peppercorn hair. Short to medium height, mesoskelic with an endomorph to mesomorph body. Dolicho- mesocephalic, orthocranic with coarse facial features, a platyrrhine nose with a depressed root. Often prognathous, body hair relatively strong.

West Bambutid (Bambutid)

Medium to dark, sometimes light (yellowish) brown skin with (reddish) brown-black peppercorn hair. (Very) short, (hyper-) macroskelic, mesomorph, occasionally hairy body. Rarely steatopygic. Meso- brachycephalic, orthocranic, rather small-headed. (Hyper-)platyrrhine. Compared to East Bambutids bodies are taller, faces longer, nasal roots higher, and prognathy stronger.

East Bambutid (Bambutid)

Dark, sometimes medium (reddish) brown skin. Brown-black, rarely blonde peppercorn hair. Very short (males 140-145 cm), (hyper-) macroskelic, mesomorph, infantile. Mesocephalic, orthocranic. Hyperplatyrrhine. Face round, prognathy weak, receding chin, upper lip convex, lips rather thin. Relatively hairy body. Weak steatopygia.

Central Bantuid (Bantuid)

Dark brown, sometimes black skin, usually kinky, sometimes peppercorn hair. (Rather) tall, brachyskelic, mesomorph. Dolichocephalic, chamae- orthocranic with narrower skull and wider nose than in other Bantuids. (Hyper-) platyrrhine nose, mouth large, lips rather full. Prognathy and receding chin more pronounced in women.

North Bantuid (Bantuid)

Dark brown skin, usually kinky, sometimes peppercorn hair. Medium tall, brachyskelic, mesomorph. Dolicho- mesocephalic, chamae- orthocranic. Rather wide face. Meso- platyrrhine nose, narrower than in other Bantuids. Mouth large, lips rather full. Eyes often narrow. Prognathy and receding chin occasionally found.
