Genetic study Ancient DNA of Roman Danubian Frontier and Slavic Migrations (Olalde 2021)

Are you supporting the Anatolian route for Mycenaean or am I wrong?

No, I actually think the northern model makes more sense to me (steppe-related groups mixing with Minoans), in terms of where the culture came from. The connections to catacomb culture are very compelling. Though I don't know exactly how much steppe the proto-greeks had by the time they arrived in southern Greece; they could have already been mixed along the way. The Minoans themselves were Anatolian_N plus CHG/IN
 
Clemente et al, in this graphic, confuse the issue imo by not differentiating between "steppe which had a CHG" component, and the Iran Neo/CHG like component by itself, which we know moved into, say, Crete, and from there no doubt into the mainland in the Early Bronze. (It's highly unlikely that steppe reached the Minoans by the Early Bronze.) The "steppe" people, from the evidence of the archaeology, arrived between the Early and Middle Bronze Age. That's why the authors wind up with that left over Hunter-Gatherer, when so far no Hunter-Gatherer remains (EHG OR WHG like) have been found south of the Iron Gates.

As I have mentioned a few times, I think CHG/Iran Neo like ancestry entered Europe in a pincer like movement: one from the steppe, and one from Anatolia.

Steppe people might have reached Greece in small quantities well before Proto-Greeks.

In such quantities will be hard to tell from where Proto-Greeks arrived. If the Armenian connection is valid, than the Anatolian route remains possible as does the route from Carpathian basin.

There is no reason for us to be BGR_IA + Slavic. The PCA says all; Albanians descend from Illyrians + Steppe heavy eastern balkaners: but I'm suppose to believe we are actually descended from near easterners + slavs, and somehow maintained our culture and spirit through that admixture... also the uniparentals don't support near-east introgression. I think Albos do have near-east potentially from *some* assimilation of urban people, as the proto-albanians expanded (but we would also have slavic + vlach aswell), but implying we underwent a massive population shift is nonsensical.

First of all, there's no reason to use HRV_EBA and HRV_MBA when we have HRV_IA. Unless you think there's genetic continuity in the Dalmatian region from the Early Bronze Age..

Just like modern Greek mainlanders plot close to the Logkas samples by coincidence, it's a similar case with other Balkan populations as well. You're doing the same thing we've all been accusing the Clemente et al paper of doing, i.e. proposing continuity arguments that are easily disproven ("Logkas = modern Thessalonicans").

Since all modern southern Balkan groups form a cline, there's 2 ways for your argument to be true:

1) Albanians are pure descendants of early Iron Age Balkan populations and all other Balkanites (including Bulgarians) are basically Albanians themselves. Also, the Slavs never settled Thrace, Macedonia, Thessaly and the Peloponnese, nor did any other major upheaval happen.
2) Albanians are pure descendants of early Iron Age Balkan populations and they miraculously happen to fall on a cline with south Slavs and Greeks.

Anyone know where the Campania and Calabria samples are from? Are they the same unscientifically chosen set by that Northern Italian Nordicist?

Unfortunately, they are those chosen set, with dubious origin with regards to the updated Dodecad list on vahaduo.

I wish "public data" was actually public data. I tried to get modern samples from academic papers, but they require stuff like IRB forums, and such. Which means it is really only for other institutions to utilize, instead of people like us.
 
Can you check Log04 as well?

In MTA this comes close to Albanians:

That sample is not close to any one at 10.17 for the closest.
 
Well, 8 is slightly better. :)

If more Northern Italians from places like Piemonte or Lombardia and the core Veneto i.e. not far northern Alpine areas with other admixture,would post their results it would be helpful.

Caution as always, when you're talking about samples from different parts of Europe it doesn't NECESSARILY mean direct descent from one group to another; it could be that both groups are descended from more ancient groups.
 
Albanians were Southern Italian-like until they received about 20% Slavic admixture it seems, to me.
A large chunk of 20% Slavic, especially in Ghegs is actually Germanic.
The I1 alone is nearly as big as R1a and I2a combined in Northern Albanians. I don't know about maternal side though.
 
Do we know if EEF or Anatolia Neo had 10% CHG/Iran Neo like Minoans/Ancient Sardinians?
I would assume that is a viable vector, for Otzi and all the paleo people of the continent, through farmer related ancestries, much earlier than the later CHG/Iran Neo introgression through Steppe.

Great summary! Thanks.

Never actually visualized how few Ancient Aegean samples we have.
Might want to add the Marathon sample there as well.
 
A large chunk of 20% Slavic, especially in Ghegs is actually Germanic.
The I1 alone is nearly as big as R1a and I2a combined in Northern Albanians. I don't know about maternal side though.

That's weird! Where does it come from? Any guidance from the sub-clades? Historical documents?
 
Strange how North Albanians and Alb from Montenegro have a North-Western shift rather than East. Indeed, the mostly Gothic (minority Norman) Y-DNA could be an indicator. I?d expect that Alb from Montenegro would be in between (more on the Alb side though) of North Alb and Montenegrins, but they?re even more Western shifted than North Albanians.

Let?s not forget how Goths settle en masse in Moesia or how the Ostrogoths held Dalmatia (as well as Italy).

I would speculate that these Goths were initially Romanized due to the fact that many historic Vlach Montenegrin clans have Gothic Y-DNA, eventually losing their Latin personal names and language in favour of the Slavic/Serbian one due to the influence of the Serbian Orthodox Church.

Together with Montenegro, Kosovo, and North Albania, let?s not forget also Thessaly (a Vlach old center) and the surrounding areas have elevated Germanic Y-DNA.

It is my personal speculation and I don?t see it as far fetched the fact that Goths (as a conglomerate of tribes) were eventually Romanized and were later known to us as Vlachs/Morlachs/Latins throughout the Balkans.

The Ghegs are/were Hallstatt derived. That's were I think this signal is coming from.
