On AG there was a dominant narrative imposed by a group of users on various topics. Those who disagreed with this dominant narrative were often banned.

Rome was the capital of an empire and the most populous city of its time. No evidence "Imperial Romans" were all locals admixed with East Med migrants. Some were indeed foreigners, other migrants...

Thank you, it's definitely different.

First it must be defined what Roman DNA is, then an answer can be tried.

Can someone explain to me whether this Reich's hypothesis is the same as Renfrew's?

I don't think they are all very precise instruments but the results come out similar to yours also by using averages with your model.

J2b-L283 is unlikely a Phoenician/Berber marker, it has been found in Sardinia, and in North Africa it came from Italy, Greece, or the Balkans.

Also Greeks, Albanians, Bulgarians, Macedonians, Montenegrins, Romanians, Moldovans and others, and even some Serbs and Spaniards, can carry percentages of Tur_Tepecik. Tur_Barcin and Tur_Tepecik...

Very unlikely. From what you posted your closest population is the Greeks from the Peloponnese.

Dodecad K12b results make much more sense in your case, as mentioned by Palermo Trapani.

I do not understand how conclusions can be drawn from port city necropolises, since it is a given that they were frequented by foreigners because of trade.

Albanian_Catholic_Mirdite looks like an outlier. Possible miscalculation in the average or an outlier not representative of all Albanians. Albanians do not plot with Italians, Albanians are part of...

Already done, post #5

Similar results with K12

Only Italians and Greeks in the PCA. She is slightly southeast of the Central Italians and has an anomalous position compared to the Greek averages.

She is north of Southern Italians and southeast of Central Italians.

These are from the original Dodecad K12b datasheet and are academic samples

There are two Tuscan averages on the original Dodecad K12b datasheet: Tuscan HGDP (7 individuals), TSI30 Metspalu/1000Genomes (21 individuals), Jovialis is using only the former. When all averages...

Interesting, Jovialis. I wonder what would improve the fit of the Sardinians.
I've used both older and updated samples (I don't see any contradictions between the two).

People believe what they want to believe.

Calculators do not know what ancestry the populations considered in the models have.

According to these models, there is Eastern Mediterranean admixture in all Italians and in all Balkan...

Are you aware that these models are actually very misleading? You can model other populations in this way as well.
