Tumulus graves were part of most of ancient IE tribes, Mycenaean and Illyrian including.
In my opinion, the region of Pieria during the bronze age wasn't Illyrian. It was Tracian, Mycenaean, or something else. Illyrians settled there at the end of the bronze age, circa 1200bce. Many of them became Hellenised or Hellenic, including Macedonians, Mollosians, etc etc.

What about the tumulus in Pigi Athenas Πηγη Αθηνας, did they come from Andromeda too? It so fun to see you bounce around like a windup toy trying to cover the obvious “tumulus burials” a sign of Illyrians.

Mycenaean(Seima- Turbino culture) vs Illyrians (Kurgan Culture). So no, at that time only Illyrians used tumulus in the Balkans.

come on guys be serious.

Modern Arvanites claim that they are Greeks, but any serious scholar acknowledged them as ethnically, Tosk Alban people.
Tosks are ethnic Albanians whom were part of the Hellenic cultural world area. Many of them claim as being Greek. But certainly they aren't. They are just an ethnic Albanian subgroup.
With Macedonians was the same. It would be like today being an American

[Piro Ilir]

From Argos fled to the country of the Illyrians three brothers of the descendants of Temenus, Gauanes, Aeropus, and Perdiccas; and passing over Illyria from the mountains they came into the upper parts of Macedonia to the city of Lebaia."

"Now that these descendants of Perdiccas are Greeks, as they themselves say, I myself chance to know and will prove it in the later part of my history."
-Herodotus.

Herodotus clearly tries to attach the Macedonian Royal dynasty to the Hellenic nation. Nevertheless, the region where these four brothers settled was Illyrian. This is obviously politics. It was crucial for ancient rulers of barbarian Illyrian descent to claim Hellenic inheritance.
Even today the southern Albanians use pejorative vocabulary against North Albanians. Generally calling them , barbarian.

Alexander I of Macedon, was the Macedonian king or ruler so called 'The philhellene'. He attached the Macedonian Illyrian tribe into the important Hellenic nation. He gave important help to the Greeks against their Persian foes. Basically, this ruler invented the fake political myth of Argead dynasty which was of Hellenic descent from Argos. It was his work which allowed the Macedonian nobility to participate at the Olympic games.
Everything claimed by Herodotus is merely politics

Considering that common Macedonians still spoke their native dialect long after Hellenization, why did no one notice that they were in fact Illyrian?

Nice joke
Did you hear the other joke?

Here another joke from Eupedia
R1a-The Greek branch
Little is known about the arrival of Proto-Greek speakers from the steppes. The Mycenaean culture commenced circa 1650 BCE and is clearly an imported steppe culture. The close relationship between Mycenaean and Proto-Indo-Iranian languages suggest that they split fairly late, some time between 2500 and 2000 BCE. Archeologically, Mycenaean chariots, spearheads, daggers and other bronze objects show striking similarities with the Seima-Turbino culture (c. 1900-1600 BCE) of the northern Russian forest-steppes, known for the great mobility of its nomadic warriors (Seima-Turbino sites were found as far away as Mongolia). It is therefore likely that the Mycenaean descended from Russia to Greece between 1900 and 1650 BCE, where they intermingled with the locals to create a new unique Greek culture.

Mycenaean(Seima- Turbino culture) vs Illyrians (Kurgan Culture). So no, at that time only Illyrians used tumulus in the Balkans.

You are definitely forgetting the Thracians. The Bulgarians and Greek archaeologists have been finding them all over the place. There are about 320 unexplored ones in Western Thrace alone and probably more in Bulgaria.

And it seemed no great maruell that Amurath had bene vanquished, and dis∣comfited by the Albanois, to them who sawe so many warlike youthes, and the strength of those forces that were then with Scanderbeg. Then did it appeare that the ancient noblenesse and valour of that nation was returned into Macedonie: and those olde times long since past and gone, of Alexander and Pyrrhus, did seeme to be renu∣ed and restored againe.
