The Illyrian arrived in Italy 1500 Years before the Greeks, and they mixed with the locals too.

Multiple Tribes, in some case related with each other, migrated, settle, and mingle with the locals.
Everywhere in Europe.

The Greeks too are not exactly the same everywhere in Greece.
The Ratio and Percentage of genes similarity makes a Population.
