The White-Baltic-Baltic (also White-Baltic-Baltic ) race [1] is a small race in the composition of the large Caucasian race . Distributed in northeastern Europe . It is characterized by medium growth , light pigmentation, straight hair , average development of the tertiary hairline , short nose (a significant percentage of raised bases and concave backs), mesokephaly or brachycephaly [2] . This is the most light-pigmented race [3] , especially with regard to hair color . One of the main physiognomic differences from the Atlanto-Baltic race is a shorter nose [4] .
This race as a group of populations is not identical to the East Baltic type . It is distinguished under this name by N. N. Cheboksarov [5] , and is present in the textbook by Ya. Ya. Roginsky and MG G. Levin ( 1963 ) [6] . V.P. Alekseev ( 1974 ) called this race the Eastern Baltic, and in the scheme of V.V. Bunak ( 1980 ) this race is called simply the Baltic [7] . According to Bunak, her symptoms are as follows:
- a large proportion of light brown hair and light colored rainbows ;
- face width about 140 mm;
- medium high nose;
- middle nasal index [8] .
Distributed in northeastern Europe from the eastern and southern coasts of the Baltic Sea to the Urals (northern groups of Russians, Belarusians, Lithuanians, Latvians, Karelians , Vepsians , part of the Komi Republic) [9] .
