J2b2-L283 (proto-illyrian)

[Hawk]

I wouldn't bother too much, samples are from Neolithic, if they dig deeper the adjacent regions to more north/west very likely J2b2-L283 will show up.

Cetina are Late EBA samples, the start of EBA to Cetina Late EBA samples, there is a 1000 year gap (timelines of EBA start might be disputed region by region though, in Aegean it is usually estimated to start in 3200 B.C while in inner Europe 2500-2300 B.C, Chalcolithic to EBA transition might differ region per region). If you are talking about Late Neolithic to Chalcolithic transition and from Chalcolithic to EBA transition, it still works out. It's a chronology.

Hi there, I am new to this Forum. My Y-DNA haplogroup is J2b2-L283, my father is from Krk ( Veglia ) island in Croatia.
I did my test with FTDNA and I also discovered that there is a man from Calabria with whom I share the same male ancestor app. 2.000 years ago.

Just look at the Greeks. You don't see North Greeks arguing or fighting with Cretans/Aegeans or vice versa because the former have Slavic and Germanic DNA that the latter lack

Mr Maciamo I follow your posts and I really find them interesting. However, I inderstand that you are not aware of the recent Greek history. Of course there is plenty of slavic and Germanic DNA in North Greeks but the majority of them are of Asia minor origin due to population exchange of 1922. More than 60% of nowadays North Greeks are immigrants from the former Eastern Roman empire and these people have no relation, or perhaps minimal relation to balkans. They also have no mongoloid or arabic connection, at least culturally. They are strongly connected to Greek islanders, including Crete. Thus, there would be no chance North Greeks to ever have an arguing with Cretans as they appear close to them. As you are an expert on DNA's you coud make a research on this topic and I believe that you will be surprised by the results. Thank you.
