symbioidljI think I'm melungeon.
I have the shovel teeth, the clicky ridge at the base of the gumline, the anatolian bump, my father and his family have a darker tone of skin than the traditional fair skinned scottish... That side of the family has dark/black hair, and my mother always said she had a feeling that somehow my dad's side was possibly breed with slaves or something, because of the physical features of my uncles... It seems to fit in some ways. Of course, I also have the british heritage from my mom, and I seem to have gotten a lot of genetic material from that side, in terms of skin complexion, etc...
I think my dad's side of the family moved to OK from somewhere else, like tennessee or missouri, but I'm not sure. Anyways, i have some interesting leads to explore on my heritage now, and I think it'll be damn interesting.
Then again, I may not, but who gives a fuck. I think spiritually I am melungeon, regardless. A nomad who wanders this planet without a home...
