I did not say Albanians are Pellzg. Pellasgoi were a pre-Illyrian population who inhabited Albanian territories. The name Lissus is Pellazg. So is Larissa. Its documented by Greeks. Pellasgoi are relatively recent people. After Illyrians came eventually Pellasg people of Albania were assimilated and eventually became Ilyrians. So Pellasgoi are a pre- Illyrian, pre-hellen people probably inhabitants of most of Italy. Don't you think that Etrusca. were also Pellasg related people. Thats why Albanain genes are classified under Italy/Greece grouping as the legacy of common pellazg ancestry
Albanians have nothing to do with the Pellasgians, leave those fairytales to the hyper-nationalist Albanians. We came from somewhere in the Dinaric mountainchain as attested by the three main haplogroups among Ghegs found by ancient DNA.
Albanian language is a mix of those along with more modern non-genetic cultural influences of other languages.
The only main Neolithic farmers were G2a who were annihilated by conquerors.
Some clueless posters don't even realize that J2b1 is almost as distant in split age with J2b2 as R1a is with R1b alone! 15 600 years!
