”Murdering thugs of the Morea” pretty harsh characterization. There were atrocities on both sides but there was actually minimal bloodshed between Christians unlike the French Revolution. My family in the Morea fought to protect their villages and they yearned for autonomy religious or...
I completely get the flaws with G25 and maybe this guy Davidski has an agenda but here's my thing as someone interested in their own personal genetic history. At least with G25 I can compare myself (to some degree) with other Greeks from my region (Peloponnese), Thessaly, Macedonia and Albania...
I tried your model as well.

Ok thanks I wasn’t completely sure and yes I realize that trying to model modem populations with these ancient components (from some of these non academic samples) is difficult. Is there a reasonable Neolithic Iranian sample? It seems like their distances from CHG is pretty significant.
Oh no I'm just trying to understand all of this as well. I added Iran Neolithic to Greek averages:

I'm guessing that some are from academic samples other's not. The one thing I can say about my own raw data is that all four of my grandparents were born in the Peloponnese (I know each of their villages and history) before 1890 which is what Stamatayanopolous used for his own paper.
Here's a Veneto sample with about the same IE but with additional WHG:

I keep coming back to Mehmet Ali's supposed scheme to slaughter the inhabitants of the Morea and replace them with Egyptians. Is there anything more to say-thank God for the West's intervention.
I've made note of that "up to 14.5% Slavic ancestry" to other posters on this site (and other sites) and they insist that's it's up to 30% Slavic by using a Bronze age Aegean population and an Early Slav sample which really doesn't prove anything. You're just using using the most Neo Anatolian...
