The graph above is a somewhat normal average(?) (North) European. Or not? Grandpa 1, Grandpa 2, Grandpa 3, and Grandpa 4 — seems to fit nicely. Except they are way too Viking.
By the way, there are currently around 151 Categories, so only 4 are somewhat normal. Even if Vikings travelled, they were not really mixing with the locals ( this is a scientific paper fact).
And that’s where it gets interesting ( besides now having way too many grandpas on the Salme Ships, which defies every probability )
