Natufians

Natufians

 

representatives of an ancient anthropological type, established as a result of the study of Mesolithic human skeletons found during the excavation of the remains of the Natufian culture (Southwest Asia). The Natufians were characterized by dolichocrany, medium height, moderate prognathism, and a wide and fairly prominent nose. Many scholars consider the Natufians to be ancient representatives of the Indo-Mediterranean race.
