  4. Sofia says:

    Greek Cypriots tend to be darker than Greeks due to the Arabic influence throughout their history. She is actually considered very light for a Greek Cypriot.

      wow she’s half irish ??? She looks even dark for a Greek ! She looks like an average arab more

        Greek DNA still the same since antiquity. They don’t have arab ‘influence’ and only because they are darker than germans or scandinavians, for example, it doesn’t mean they aren’t caucasians. For me, facial features are more important than skin tone.
