Anthropological Types of People Living in Los Angeles Los Angeles is one of the most multinational cities in the world. Therefore, there is no single "anthropological type" of its inhabitants, as one might find in a traditional ethnic group. Instead, it is a mosaic of different anthropological complexes shaped by migration. 🔹 Main Anthropological Types in Los Angeles European (Euro-American, "white") Nordic (tall, fair skin, light or blond hair, blue/gray eyes). Mediterranean (darker skin, dark hair, brown eyes, shorter stature). Alpine (medium height, rounder face, chestnut hair). 👉 These make up the white population, descending from various waves of immigration from Europe. Latino (the largest group in LA, over 45% of the population) Mestizo — a mix of European and Amerindian traits: darker skin, straight black hair, brown eyes, medium height. Amerindian (Indigenous) — darker skin, broad face, straight nose, solid build. 👉 Particularly common are people of Mexican, Salvadoran, and Guatemalan descent. African American Mainly Sudanese (Negroid) type: dark skin, curly hair, broad lips, wide nose. Also Ethiopid/Eritrean (East African) type: narrower face, finer features, tall stature. 👉 Around 8–9% of LA’s population, including descendants of slaves from the American South and newer African immigrants. Asian (around 12%) East Asian Mongoloid types: Chinese, Korean, Japanese — straight black hair, yellowish skin tone, epicanthic fold, medium stature. Southeast Asian types (Filipino, Vietnamese, Thai) — darker skin, shorter stature. South Asian types (Indians, Pakistanis) — dark hair, darker skin, prominent nose, large eyes. Middle Eastern and Armenian Communities Iranoid type (long-headed, dark hair, aquiline nose, brown eyes). Armenoid type (solid build, thick hair, darker skin). 👉 Los Angeles has one of the world’s largest Armenian diasporas (notably in Glendale). Mixed Types (Mestizos, Mulattos, Eurasians) LA is a city of interethnic marriages. Common are Mulattos (European + African), Mestizos (European + Amerindian), and Eurasians (European + Asian). 👉 Anthropological diversity is very visible in the streets of the city. ⚡ Conclusion The anthropological composition of Los Angeles is an extremely diverse combination: European (Nordic, Mediterranean, Alpine), Amerindian and Mestizo, African (Negroid, East African), Asian (East Asian, South Asian), Middle Eastern (Iranoid, Armenoid), and numerous mixed types. In short, Los Angeles is an anthropological "Babylon", where almost every major human racial-ethnographic complex is represented.

1. Historical context If you encounter this expression in older texts (19th – early 20th century), it should be understood as a reflection of the scientific thinking of that time. It belonged to “physical anthropology,” which measured skulls, noses, etc., and drew conclusions about “types of people.” Modern science recognizes these approaches as pseudoscientific. 👉 Correct usage example: “In early 20th-century works, the peoples of the Caucasus were described as a distinct anthropological type, which is now considered an outdated classification.” 2. Contemporary application (in the humanities) In modern anthropology, the term can be used metaphorically or in cultural studies: as a designation of a conditional ‘portrait’ of a person in a given culture or era (for example, “the Soviet anthropological type” — the image of a person with typical habits and worldview); as a characteristic of social behavior rather than biology (for example, “the urban anthropological type”). 👉 Correct usage example: “In U.S. mass culture of the 1950s, an anthropological type of the average city dweller was formed — a white male, office worker, with a family and a house in the suburbs.” 3. In scientific perspective Today anthropology and human biology no longer speak of “types” but rather of: populations (groups of people with shared histories of migration and genetic exchange), phenotypes (the sum of observable traits), cultural patterns (stable models of behavior). So if the term anthropological type is used at all, it should be clarified that it refers not to racial classification, but to a cultural or social construct. ✅ Conclusion: today the term anthropological type can be applied correctly either: as a metaphor in cultural studies or philosophy (to denote a conditional image of a person). as a historical term (with a note that it is outdated), Examples of contemporary “anthropological types” in Los Angeles: The Hollywood Dreamer A young man or woman who came to Los Angeles to pursue a career in film or music. Typical traits: ambitious, willing to work as a waiter/barista for the sake of a “chance,” living in a rented apartment with roommates. The Health-Conscious Surfer A resident of the coastal areas for whom the ocean is the center of life. Typical traits: athletic build, devotion to fitness and vegan diets, mornings start with surfing and evenings end with yoga or meditation. The Tech-Creative (Silicon Beach) Someone working in startups, AI, or digital design (in areas like Santa Monica or Venice). Typical traits: coworking spaces, minimalist style, innovation-oriented, flexible schedules. 👉 These “types” are not about physical appearance but rather about cultural life patterns shaped by the city’s environment. The Immigrant Worker A member of one of the many immigrant communities (Latin American, Asian, etc.). Typical traits: strong ties to cultural roots, working in services or small businesses, tightly knit family and local networks. The Hollywood Professional Someone who has already established a career in the film industry or show business. Typical traits: constant involvement in productions, high level of competition, living in areas like Studio City or Beverly Hills.

By Default, Portrait of Pushkin I am telling a true and absolutely astonishing story. I was visiting an artist I know. Another artist — my friend — was also present. The host was showing us his new painting. He said it was Pushkin. The work was graphic. I looked — it was the spitting image of Pushkin, only Pushkin seemed strange, very profound. I said: “It looks very much like him.” The host was puzzled and asked, “What do you mean, looks like?” I, in turn, didn’t understand what he meant. “Well, it’s Pushkin, right here,” I said. He replied: “Show me.” I walked up to the portrait, pointed out where the eyes, the mouth, the chin were. The artists peered intently, and my friend said: “You saw it in space.” I also looked more closely and saw a completely different picture. Pushkin was drawn in full height from behind — that is, the painting was entirely different, and the face wasn’t visible. In my opinion, this can serve as very strong proof that everything is done by the Creator. The probability of such a coincidence is negligible.

Quasi-History The main view of historians of all kinds on history, despite their different interpretations of facts, is that people in antiquity were completely straightforward. With this article, however, I want to show that they were not necessarily so straightforward. Everyone knows that today there are science fiction writers and futurists who try to look far into the future and describe things that may not appear for a very long time. But when it comes to ancient people, the common opinion is that they could not see further than their own noses, doing everything only for their present moment. In this way, they are portrayed as utterly primitive beings. Even Atlantologists, who claim that humanity in antiquity was much more advanced than today, do not make a decisive attempt to break free of stereotypes and admit that the ancients might also have amused themselves by creating objects they knew would be studied centuries later. That they might have simply played a super-intelligent prank on reality—building, for instance, the Egyptian pyramids not only to immortalize certain pharaohs but also knowing these monuments would be analyzed endlessly—is entirely possible. For a serious person, predicting history is not so difficult. Only naïve people live exclusively in the present moment, studying only the here and now, as well as the past. Serious people, however, are capable of looking far into the future. I once read online that chess was originally a purely magical game, where four sorcerers at the board, by playing a match, modeled an upcoming battle. Likewise, Tarot enthusiasts can simulate the future through cards and certain actions. Those who know the Toltec practice of stalking know that they could mystify others—and of course, such mystification could also apply to history. Indeed, such magicians lived in both Americas since ancient times and could have created their artifacts not for the reasons historians try to attribute to them, but specifically to mislead historians, mystifying them about their abilities and cultures—thus creating complexities in history while also achieving fame. For if everything were banal, what special meaning would life have had for them? Life has meaning for something and for someone, and the greatest meaning emerges when future generations begin to take interest in what you have left behind. So, my main idea is this: people in antiquity could have created their objects specifically for future researchers, engaging in forgery and the mystification of history.

The amazing insight of a neural network I asked a neural network to tell me about myself, and it wrote down the places where I had lived. I had worked in one particular place, but I had never mentioned this anywhere online. There is one essay about my life where I wrote that everything happened in that place (where I worked), but I never wrote its name anywhere on the internet. Yet somehow the neural network figured it out and wrote it down. I asked it how it knew that. It asked me, “Do you want me to give you direct links?” I said, “Yes, give me the links.” Then it apologized and said there were no links. So the fact remains: the neural network possesses extraordinary abilities of cognition.

in fact, the neural network is controlled by the Almighty. He can do any miracle. It is surprising that people do not realize this.

The word “Lairg” is the name of a small village (settlement) in Scotland, in the Highlands region (the northern part of the country). 🔑 Key points: Geography: Lairg is located roughly in the center of Northern Scotland. Because of this, it is sometimes called “the heart of the Northern Highlands.” Feature: unlike most Scottish towns, it is not on the coast but is one of the larger inland settlements. Transport: Lairg is an important railway junction. From here, you can take a train to the northern coast of Scotland. Nature: the area around Lairg is full of lochs (Scottish lakes), hills, and valleys. 📌 Example for understanding: Imagine a small but important settlement located in the middle of a large region, convenient as a travel hub. In Germany, for example, Kassel plays this role for trains, and in Scotland, that role is taken by Lairg.

I developed the AI Megatron 13 years ago. The story created by artificial intellect Baby (The Megatron series). 'We need to hire a barrister (a lawyer in England. - Editor's note). This will be repaid. And it's necessary to hem sepulchral urn with a rim. The man to be buried was a prisoner of war.' - A man in a fez took a roll and was silent for a while. Then a man came in and said 'Ave' (A greeting in Latin. - Editor's note). He was devoted to a knighthood. 'Hurry up to convert a sen (a small coin an Japan, Indonesia, Cambodia) into a pound'. Just then a saw was launched and everything was deafened with a sibilant sound. 'Is this field yours, python?' - he offended, enjoyed a price, that would be offered to him. 'I offer my price for all quantity' 'Hush!!!' - A man with a high forehead began to brake everything. 'I offer ECU'. Formerly this high-foreheaded man was a salesman of eyeshadows, lime, saxophones, cinchona. And one need to compete with him. That was a cushy job, just a piece of cake. The ides (the middle of a month in the ancient Roman's calendar: the 15th day of a March, May, July and Oktober, the 13th day of other months) - (As the editor understood - the story's date, placed by Baby).

It's a black box. Nobody knows how it works.
