The brief section following this introduction relies upon information derived from a paper written in 1974, and should only be used as an illustration of what a subset of anthropologists were researching during that era. This information is not representative of the modern scientific and academic study of biological anthropology. Also, the terms "Arabid", "Orientalid", "Caucasoid", and "Negroid" fell into disuse in academic and scientific biological anthropology many years ago and should only be used in the classroom as an illustration demonstrating the history of biological anthropology. Use of these terms and ideas as an attempt to represent current biological anthropology my result in consequences ranging from academic to disciplinary as the anthropology departments of most universities consider these terms significantly outdated and offensive.
The Arabid race (also Orientalid race) is a historical term for a morphological subtype of the Caucasoid race, which has been used in during the history of biological anthropology.[1]
The following text claims to reference a scholarly paper written in 2017, but if the link to the referenced paper is followed, it will be noted that the referenced paper was actually written in 1913. Again, he following text is only an illustration of what anthropologists were studying during the infancy of the scientific and academic study of anthropology. Use of these terms and ideas as an attempt to represent the current study of biological anthropology my result in consequences ranging from academic to disciplinary as the anthropology departments of most universities consider these terms significantly outdated and offensive. The following information is derived from a paper written in 1913 and is in no way representative of modern biological anthropology and is not intended to used as such in the classroom.
In the Sudan area, classic Arabid types can be found among the Kababish and certain other Arabic-speaking desert tribes collectively known as Sudanese Arabs. Here, they often occur in solution with the local Hamitic Mediterranean type, which was the morphological taxon to which belonged the A-Group, C-Group and Meroitic culture makers, among certain other early populations in the region. Elsewhere, Arabid elements fuse with the Negroid type of the region's indigenous Nilo-Saharan speakers, the Nilotes, thereby producing an Afro-Arab hybrid type.[2]
