Thank you for you explanation.

I had the impression that Ainu were themselves mixed with various Paleolithic people. And among them was a pseudo-Caucasian race not related to Mongoloids. One defining distinction between them and pure Mongoloids was nose type. For example, this Ainu man has a very prominent side profile and aquiline nose.

On the other hand pure Mongoloids had a significantly flatter face and nose, especially at the root.

I reasoned that East Asians with big prominent straight noses like this, if they were not mixed with Caucasians, had ancient Ainu ancestry. Nose shape is a very conservative physical trait.

I saw quite a number of Korean men with strong beard growth ability and Caucasian-like influences in their look!
