I’ve never known any uzbeks. But I knew a couple tajik girls that were absolutely GORGEOUS. I thought they looked greek.
The Uzbek girls I met were KBR secretaries. Their eyes were round but tilted upward at the corners just like I Dream of Jeannie. Knockouts! They are Turkic which separates Central Asian from Asian, and in fact expressed an afinity for modern Turkey whose ancestors migrated west from C.A. Later learned Uzbek-Turkish intermarriage is common among them.
Heh, heh, they claimed Greek ancestry (or Macedonian) for any Uzbek I saw with blonde features which they said came all the way from Alexander the Great and his army while passing through on their way to India.
Hmmm.....
