What do Syrian people look like?

Depends on their ancestry. Syrians Mainly look Mediterranean White, like the Italians and Greeks--which is due to the Greek/Roman-Byzantine presence in Syria in the past. A good number of Syrians are just Arabized Greeks and Romans. Then there are some Syrians that look like Arabs from the Arabian peninsula, they are either Bedouin, or are descendants of Arab invaders of the 7th century. Keep in mind, Syria was not Arab until the 7th Century Arab and Muslim invasion. You'll also find many Syrians who are blonde hair, fair skin, and blue eyes- who are descendants of the Crusaders. Then there are the Syriacs, the native Aramaic speaking people of Syria; they either have a Mediterranean look from the mixture with Romans, or sometimes Semitic looking.
