The Pamirid race, also Pamir-Fergana race (Russian Памиро-ферганская раса, named for the Pamir range and the Fergana valley), is the most Eastern subrace of the Europid race, a racial category is now considered to be obsolete.
It was said to be common in Central Asia, represented mostly by the Tajiks, Uyghurs[1] and the Pamir people and Uzbeks. Characterized by brachycephalic skull, dark hair, white skin (these characteristics are absent in the Pamir people and the mountain Tajiks), narrow protruding nose and fairly strong development of the tertiary hair cover.[2]
During the Bronze Age, the Pamir-Fergana type was widely represented on the territory of Central Asia among the Indo-European population.
