Facial attributes to find ancestry?

Question:Is there a site that contains all the facial attributes of all the races of the world?

For instance it would say like " here is a picture of a typical person with english heritage" or " this person would be an example of someone with greek heritage"

I dont know something like that. That way I can find out where I might come from.

Thanks

Well, the celebrety list is interesting.
What you are asking about is anthropology and various museums, most notably the Field Museum in Chicago have faces and scuptures of various peoples around the world.
The problem with what you want to do is the mix of "races" is not nearly precise enough.
When I was in Thailand, there were the round faces of the ethnic Chinese and the tapered faces of the ethnic polynesian (my word). But if you were matched with one or the other, how would you be sure of Thailand vs China vs all the other Polynesian peoples?
My background is German directly to Iowa and 5 generations there before I was born (mother) and English for at least 4 generations then 3 long New England generations (father). Who knows what was picked up with spouses in those 150 years after leaving the "homeland"
I live in Texas and the range of Mexican faces and their overlap, especially at the more Aztec/Indian end with oriental faces and "native american" faces constantly bewilders me.

why don't you just have a dna test?- that way you can find out for sure.

you can upload a picture on MyHeritage.com and it will upload lots of celebrities that the computer generated that you look alike or resemble. The majority race of the celebrities you look alike is probably your race also. Thats the only type of site I know about that has a database of different facial features that belong to all the different races

I don't believe you are going to find a typical English face etc.

Actually most nationalities are a mixture of different types of people. The expression, "I am a full blooded Irishman, Italian, German or whatever,' I think sounds dumb. It sounds like they are comparing themselves to their pedigree horse or dog.

England, for instance, had Celtic people, then the Romans came and then the Germanic Anglo, Saxons and Jutes, then the Danes and then the French speaking Normans. They are a nation of mutts.

Most other countries has had invasions,boundary changes etc. Racial purity, so to speak, just doesn't exist.

We have a lot of silly kids putting their picture on this board asking people to guess what their ethnicity is. Most of the time it looks like they have the camera at the end of their nose. No one can tell by looking at someone's picture, what they are.

Check out this site. It sounds like what you are looking for.
