IS Flavian a Race of Nordic?

Are the Flavian a separate race from Nordics?

Guenther (1957) classfies the Flavian dynasty (Vespasian and his sons, Titus and Domitian) as predominantly Phalian. Phalians are tall, robust, and light-pigmented. They have broad faces, but long skulls, being essentially a modern survival of the Cro-Magnon physical type.

The Flavians were tall and fair-haired -- unsurprising considering their family name is derived from a Latin word for "blond". Domitian is also described as blue-eyed and ruddy (Sieglin 1935).

I was wondering whether flavian might not be descendents of the original aboriginal europeans, before the arrival of ARYANS. I am referring to people of haplogroup I .
