- I2a-Y18331 > A2512*
I continue to stand by my last hypothesis. Namely, for I-Y3120 to have been pushed into Greece after the destruction of the Celtic settlement of Tylis in 212 BCE. They would have probably re-settled somewhere within Greek Macedonia. After some 100 years we have the creation and TMRCA of Ι-Υ18331 per YFull.Per YFull there are new sub-branches under Y66192, Y182158 and below that Y182752. Greeks are in every Y18331 sub-branch as well as Y18331*. What is your opinion as to when Y18331 entered Greece, as seen by the samples today? Do you think it was a one-time migration or did it happen in different events?

Then again, i don't discard the hypothesis of @Aspurg. It could also be Bastarnae who carried I-Y3120 in Greek Macedonia, at approximately 180-170 BCE. They were also probably a Celtic tribe originally, especially during that early time that concerns us.
