Iberian race
The Iberian race is an obsolete racial classification of humans based on a now-disproven theory of biological race. It is said to have major populations in Spain and Portugal (the Iberian Peninsula), hence its name.[1] According to The Journal of African American History, the Moroccan Berbers also belong to the Iberian race.[2] The race also spread to the French areas of Aquitaine and Pyrénées-Orientales.[3]
Features
According to William Z. Ripley, the Iberian race is known for having long heads.[4] They are also known for their short stature and dark brown hair.[5][6]
