Are there any differences in facial features of Asian Indians and Native Americans?

I was just curious because somebody thought i was natvie american as i have slightly reddish brown skin, and yellowish-brownish eyes turning upwards slightly. I am in fact 'Asian Indian - Sikh' %26lt;- (didnt know how to put it :S)Are there any differences in facial features of Asian Indians and Native Americans?
do NOT even entertain the idea. americans are very ignorant about the indigenous people here especially about how we look. for decades and even today, people think this guy

is native. he is ITALIAN. so americans think we look like italians. hollywood cast taylor lautner as a native, when he isn't native at all, so now they think we all should look like him. they cast fillipino and asian actors as natives so they think we look asian.





the fact is the vast majority of americans have never met an indigenous person in their entire lives so they have NO idea what we look like, just the stereotypes. so you have brown skin and its obvious you aren't african american soooo....oops you must be native right?





just shake your head and move on.Are there any differences in facial features of Asian Indians and Native Americans?

Natives have different eye structures (more mongol influence) and different nose type in general.





Indians are more brown/tan and seem to have more slender features for face (natives a little bit more round facial shape) while slightly larger lips.





It depends on the person though..I just pulled up the first two pictures of Native and Indian and compared them.
WHAT KANEIN SAID!!!!!








Look at my yahoo 360. Ignore the picture of me in Hijab. Do I look asain? If you hung around natives regularly, you could tell us apart from yourself. Even with my Israeli (used to be called Palestine) ancestry (1/8), I still don't look asain.
only slight
in general, native american women are more attractive...my opinion.
