Classify Peter Kürten

[Nachtengel]

Not the Skadi member, but the serial killer.

Fritz Lang allegedly made a film about this guy in 1931, although he denied the claim.
It starred Peter Lorre and was simply called M.

Because of the similarities between the fictional killer in M and real-life Kürten, the film was known as The Vampire of Duesseldorf in some countries.

I saw this one years ago and was amazed at how they captured the nature of such an individual.
Highly recommended.

The skull is somewhat high. The facial length seems high; the facial width seems moderate. Neither the zygomats nor the gonials are pronounced; though from frontal views the gonials at times have a somewhat puffy appearance. The nasal height is short to moderate; the width is moderate. The nasal length and depth are both high. The nasal profile is mostly straight with slight concavity; despite this, the nose is pointed. This combination of nasal characteristics is unusual in my opinion. The mouth width is high.

I would classify him as predominantly Nordid altered by non-eastern Cromagnoid. By Cromagnoid, I mean the broad order of types that either are included among or are derived from the postulated Cromagnid family.
