Your references don't work correctly ~ file corruption AND trojans.

Again, do not mistake a tan for original issue ~ and Saddam Hussein even looked particularly East Asian, yet he was mostly of Arab origin but his part of the world was conquered by the Mongols, and then the Turks, so there's that part.

Facebook and the Univision website are corrupted and have trojans? And I have been going to the Network 54 forum for more than a decade without any problems. I don’t get it. The links work for me, I just tried them. I use those sites all the time.

Every time I encounter an embedded trojan on this particular machine it tells me I've won a prize.

Although it can't hurt this system, the signal is for me to shut down.

You can go to a site every day for years and years and years and then, bingo, "something wicked comes this way".

BTW, no, your first guy doesn't look particularly Naytiv ~ he kind of looks Italian.

A lot of Americans think Indians look like Arabs because that sort of physiognomy was sought out to play Indians in the old movies. That Italian look is probably also Arab. Southern Europe, especially southern Italy and Spain are lousy with Arab genes left over from various periods of occupation. The big arab noses of some of the famous warriors of the plains of the 1800s could well be that same derivation from the Spanish conquistadors and the Spanish population of the southwest from the 1600s.

Could be, plus the Indians are mostly descended from the Yakuts ~ just like the Japanese Daimyo (the former ruling class who conquered much of the main islands in the 500s and 600s.

Eskimos, with smaller noses, are descended from other Yakuts.

Noses appear to not be "fixed", and in the same family you'll find big noses and small noses.

It's the BEAK shaped nose you want to look for, with a "curve" ~ that's shared by the Japanese (with larger noses), the Indians AND the Yakuts ~

The Aztecs had something they euphemistically referred to as “the corncrib”, consisting of a corncrib-like structure that ran along straight out from the base of the staircase of the big pyramid in Tenochtitlan. It was filled with human skulls, and the Spanish estimated that it held around 250,000. They got rid of that, and the temples, and buried various idols such as Huitzilapochtli.

I thought they did the house cleaning because they wanted to control the wealth of the conquered people and part of doing that is controlling the people. If you take away their religious institutions and their festival games and a host of other things you can get what you want.

The Yucatecas are pretty isolated from the rest of Mexico. Their Mayan features would be better preserved especially since the Spanish ruled along a strict caste system ther. The henequen revolutions were pretty bloody affairs driving many Spanish back home to Spain.

Are you talking about the Spanish in Mexico or our own American comintern?

They seem to have similar goals and methods.

There is a partial glyph at the bottom of the statue that reads:

For there is no joy in Ceulville,

Mighty Quetzal has struck out.

I highly recommend “The Caste War of Yucatan” by Nelson Reed. There are a lot of people in Yucatan who look exactly like the carvings and paintings. But there are a lot of Mayan descendants in Chiapas, as well. But there are many in Northern Mexico with a very native cast of feature. Another one: Jose Guadalupe Esparza, a musician, de Monterry:
