Where are the Nordics ?

“The ‘Nordic race,’ like other human races, has no present existence. Its former existence, like that of all ‘pure races,' is hypothetical. There does, however, exist a Nordic type. This occurs with only a moderate degree of mixture in certain limited areas of Scandinavia, and is also to be found, though very much mixed with other types (so that all intermediates and recombinations occur), in Northern Europe from Britain to Russia, with pockets here and there in other countries. Where the Nordic type is most prevalent, in Scandinavia, there is no evidence of any ancient civilisation having been attained at all comparable to that of the Near East, North Africa, India, China, the Mediterranean or the Aegean."—Mr Julian Huxley.
