These type of profiles even existed back then. There is not much change. Neither is there when you add Albanian regional averages to some of these Illyrians.

Greece, Tuscany, Central/North Italian regions is what people even get today. It depends also largely on the modern averages you use.

[Michalis Moriopoulos]

Logkas' similarity to modern mainland Greeks is actually a perfect cautionary tale about trumpeting any similarities that exist between ancient and medieval/modern Albania. Coincidental distances do happen due to the ever swinging pendulum of gene flow. There is no way on God's green earth that modern mainland Greeks are mostly descended of Logkas. Their similarity is coincidental.

I will look at this stuff eventually, but I still have to finish the BA.

That Logkas 2 sample is probably my closest genetic match (to an ancient sample) that I've come across but it's because of the compositional similarity. I've contested that modern Greeks (especially from the mainland are a transient lot with a lot of North to South movement over the years; Epirus/Thessaly to the Peloponnese in particular. I still don't believe that it's necessarily because of Slavic admixture that modern Greeks from the mainland have higher Steppe (or whatever you want to call it) but because those who gradually moved South into the Peloponnese or even Central Greece already had higher Balkan like IE making the entire peninsula compositionally similar. If you notice there are minor genetic differences between Central Macedonian Greeks and Greeks from say Argolis or Messinia.
BTW that Logkas 4 has really high Steppe and would probably be much closer to Southern Slavs vs. Greeks or Albanians.

[TonyC]

Logkas' similarity to modern mainland Greeks is actually a perfect cautionary tale about trumpeting any similarities that exist between ancient and medieval/modern Albania. Coincidental distances do happen due to the ever swinging pendulum of gene flow. There is no way on God's green earth that modern mainland Greeks are mostly descended of Logkas. Their similarity is coincidental.

I will look at this stuff eventually, but I still have to finish the BA.

That Logkas 2 sample (as I've mentioned before) is super close to mainland Greeks most likely due to the similarity in ancestral components. I don't think it's a coincidence though particularly if this sample represents later Northern Greek archaic populations who may have moved South in later years. Somebody brought the higher Paleo-Balkan Steppe to Southern Greece and I don't necessarily believe it was just those early medieval Slavic settlers.

It's not a dichotomy, Slavs mixed with Balkan people and migrated southwards, Greeks assimilated Balkan ancestry(or Balkan people became Greek speakers during the Hellenistic and Roman period) and then were assimilated by or assimilated Slavs they were in contact with and migrated around, Aromanians and Albanians with lower Slavic ancestry migrated southwards.

Let's put it this way, given how much Slavic Y-DNA Greece and Albania has(regardless of what the exact figure is) wouldn't you say it's fair to say the autosomal Slavic input matches that %(not half because we know Slavic migrations weren't particularly gender-biased)?

Modern mainland Greeks can't descend from Logkas not just because this would require many population events which haven't been recorded historically but also because the Logkas samples aren't Proto-Greek.

The Logkas samples belong to the Armenochori group which is the southernmost extension of west-central Balkan Late EBA/MBA groups of the post-Vucedol-Kostolac era.



This area was included in the Proto-Albanian-Messapic area in one of the presentations of the The Secondary Homelands of the Indo-European Languages (IG-AT2022). I don't think that Armenochori can be Proto-Albanian but one of the many related post-Vucedol formations, which briefly extended up to southern Macedonia and then moved back to more northern locations. In any case, I don't think that anyone would be able to prove that Proto-Albanians = Armenochori group specifically but not one of the many similar groups to the north of Armenochori.

The Proto-Greek-Phrygian area in several presentations was defined as EBA Ezero:

Early medieval Slavic settlers couldn't have brought to Greece any low WHG or high ANF profiles. Most medieval south Slavic profiles we have found so far are much more Slavic than modern south Slavs. The Slavs which settled in Albanian and Greek regions most likely looked like the Slavic individual from Byzantine Anatolia:

Target: TUR_Marmara_Ilipinar_Byz3:I10430
Distance: 6.2195% / 0.06219493
47.0 Yamnaya_RUS_Samara
39.2 TUR_Barcin_N
13.8 WHG

A slightly mixed Slav from Byzantine Dalmatia:

44.2 Yamnaya_RUS_Samara
40.2 TUR_Barcin_N
11.2 WHG
4.4 Levant_PPNB

High ANF/low WHG/~1/3 Yamnaya profiles without significant other admixtures were preserved at the very least in the Albanian regions and then at some point began to re-expand outwards. Maybe they were preserved in other regions too, but we don't have any samples yet for other populations like northern Greeks from Macedonia.

The main point I need to stress is that these profiles can only be maintained via high endogamy. These two modern individuals from Dibra (official G25 coords):

Target: Dibra2
Distance: 3.0627% / 0.03062717

2.8 IRN_Ganj_Dareh_N
1.8 WHG
0.2 IRN_Shahr_I_Sokhta_BA2_I8728

couldn't have had such high ANF profiles without endogamy. Add any substantial Slavic or Anatolian exogamy and they simply can't exist any longer because they represent - with very few other components - very high ANF values, which neither Byzantine Anatolians nor Slavs had.

EDIT:

I don't support any Fallmerayer-like notion about heavy Slavic admixture in any of the two non-Slavic people of the Balkans. Regional profiles like the one in Corinth:

Target: Greek_Corinthia
Distance: 2.2338% / 0.02233795

31.8 Yamnaya_RUS_Samara
6.2 Levant_PPNB
6.0 Kura-Araxes_ARM_Kaps
2.2 IRN_Ganj_Dareh_N
1.0 WHG

can very easily be explained via the admixture of a Deep Mani-like and a Mirdita/Dibra-like profile without any third substantial Slavic component. This doesn't mean that Slavic admixture doesn't exist at all but it's limited and exists in specific areas for specific historical and geographical reasons. Overall, from all medieval-to-modern samples that we have what we can see is that Slavic admixture began to decline after 1100 CE and this decline has only increased in the past 3 centuries, which is an absolutely normal and expected series of events which has occurred in all regions where non-local admixture has been added as a single event. Without constant events, everything returns to its equilibrium.

Who are these samples from medieval South Slavs who are more Slavic than the current ones?With exception Southern Serbs(who are indeed more southern shifted for some reason) the rest of Yugoslavs are mostly Slavic in their autosomal.Sclaveni would had been between Croats/Slovenes and Bosniak/Serbs in autosomal DNA.

I don't know I haven't studied much Greek origin or Greece. My main focus has mostly been on Albanians, I just noticed these samples when running them. You are right about Logkas 4 possibly but possibly like some North-Albanians, North Italians, Bulgarians,Macedonians. Did not really say Greeks descendant from Logkas. Just arguing that such profile could of possibly still existed, for example when we look also at sample found in North Macedonia without adding Albanian regions since in many cases it gets those first

Anyway, I have looked at many ancient samples from the Balkans and to me the change definitely does not seem that ''huge'', it could also be a bottle neck effect as the result of barbarian incursions, that's why Albanians possibly share so many common ancestors within the last 1500 years. Many of these calculators also seem faulty to me, this is why I think studying components and PCA maps where these samples plot, Y-DNA is more important than what exact populations these calculators give, they give more or less the same populations but in different row , distances etc if you understand what I mean. Many of these calculators are faulty, people think they can tell you how much Illyrian or Greek ancestry or Slavic ancestry you have yet they add a bunch of genetically related populations into the calculator. How can a calculator tell you anything about IBD sharing or where all your ancestors came from. Seems to be mostly useful to see how much Neolithic you have vs Steppe and HG.

On G25 I get Greece Thessaly, Greek Macedonia and then North Italian regions as first populations,

I would also argue, lets wait for more samples.

[Avraam Kyriakidis]

I guess you also haven't seen Ancient samples from Greece since you claim there has been a demographic change there

These type of profiles even existed back then. There is not much change. Neither is there when you add Albanian regional averages to some of these Illyrians.

Greece, Tuscany, Central/North Italian regions is what people even get today. It depends also largely on the modern averages you use.

I was one of the first members in various anthroforas that supported the Slavic admixture among mainland Greeks while many of the Greek users were seeing Dorians,Celts and blonde aryans.So,you speaking to the wrong person.What exists for Albanians exists for mainland Greeks as well.I have modeled both populations thousands of times and they both require balto-slavic related drift to get modeled properly.Btw,i dont understand why you insist so much about the Slavic input and not about the west asian input among your people.My post to you above explains clearly the southern shift of modern Albanians in comparison with their forefathers who def lacked anything west asian/anatolian.
