This one was not behind a pay wall, which is good. It features photographs by Lebanese photographer Omar Reda, with interesting ones of the Kalash tribe, Pakistan, who have Nordic features, such as blonde hair and blue eyes. The genetics of this Indo-Aryan group are controversial, but it is possible that they are the remains of the Aryan invaders from thousands of years ago. But, there are alternatives: “A study by Qasim Ayub, Massimo Mezzavilla, and Chris Tyler-Smith (2015) found no evidence of their claimed descent from soldiers of Alexander. The study, however, found that they shared a significant portion of genetic drift with MA-1, a 24,000-year-old Paleolithic Siberian hunter-gatherer fossil and the Yamnaya culture. The researchers thus believe they may be an ancient north-drifted Eurasian stock from which some of the modern European and Middle Eastern population also descends. Their mitochondrial lineages are predominantly from western Eurasia. Due to their uniqueness, the researchers believed that they were the earliest group to separate from the ancestral stock of the modern population of the Indian subcontinent estimated around 11,800 years ago.”

“Lebanese photographer Omar Reda, 37, dreamed of traveling ever since he was a child, watching National Geographic documentaries on TV.
Shooting with black and white film in university kindled an interest and eventually sent him off on a cross-continental journey to capture the wondrous diversity of tribal cultures. Recent travels landed him in Africa, following a successful Pakistani expedition.
Omar also visited the Kalash tribe in Pakistan bordering Afghanistan, whose “unexpected” genetic features are of clear Arian ancestry.
Their blue, grey, and green eyes, blonde hair, and often fair skin have a certain charm melded with the garb, adornment, and culture of distinct Middle Eastern heritage.
“The mystery of the existence of this tribe and how two cultures blended together” was Omar’s inspiration, he said. “Looking at the Kalash eyes has mesmerized me. It is unbelievable that they live in this area.”
This rare tribe offers a glimpse into the wondrous variety of our world and the humans that live here.”
