Thanks Jovialis, ... more or less, you and I, and most Apulians ... we're all true Apulians :)Originally Posted by Jovialis

I appreciate the comment. It is indeed frustrating and tiring dealing with the "weirdos" of all varieties which our "hobby" seems to attract. It's worse when they're not very bright. Sometimes it gets a bit too much.
At least the one who wanted to send hit men against one of our past moderators is gone, and the one who was going to find our houses and shoot us for being race traitors, and I haven't gotten a vile, graphic, expletive filled woman hating pm in a while, so things could be worse. :)

For ihype02, who I'm sure is lurking here under a sock, from your beloved G25, my husband's results. I get scores of 4 and 5 to modern Northern Italians. Pretty good for samples which are 2400 years old.

It is a dogma that southern Italians allegedly are the only exception in Europe insofar they have, according to them, very little ancestry from the previous millennia, no matter what actual science and evidence say, because they take only G25 earnestly as if it were gospel.
It's true that southern Italians aren't identical to any ancient pop, but they are darn close, and not only on a 2D PCA but also by genetic distance and the affinity to ancient Greek/Mycenaean samples have been noticed again and again in the literature, thus so far the evidence is overwhelmingly in favour of significant continuity (which of course doesn't mean 100% continuity, so to say we claim 100% identity is a strawman), and the explanation that it is "just a coincidence" because south Italy's previous inhabitants got "replaced by east meds", who then mixed with Germanic invaders, is really an explanation that borders more on fantasy than history.
To be fair Hype's model was that south Italians are allegedly only 20-25% mixed with a caucasus-related pop compared to those Himera Greeks, though we must keep the record straight and recall that what Anthrogenica purports to have "discovered" is a replacement by "east meds" followed by another gene flow from north Europe or north Italy.
At this point nothing will change their mind.
Anthrogenica posters think that North Italians are a mix of east Med people largely descended from freed Anatolian slaves, pulled north by Langobards and Romanized Provincials fleeing from the Danube provinces in Late Antiquity and the Early Middle Ages!
^^I've said it more than once.
Show me documentary evidence of a large scale migration of Northerners into, in this particular case, Calabria. Also show me the appropriate levels of Northern Ydna lineages to make that feasible.
If you can't, then the hypothesis fails.
As for fleeing people from outposts of the empire, even if we ignore the fact that there is no documentary evidence of huge numbers of people making the dangerous journey back to Italia, the genomes of the people making that journey would NOT HAVE BEEN "Northern". All these intellectually challenged people would have to do is look at the samples from Szolad. You can clearly see the Lombard samples. A detailed examination of the remaining "Romans" shows many are extremely "Greek like" i.e. like some Imperial Romans, and some are Tuscan like.
A small group of these people would not change the genetic signature of the people then living in southern Italy, even if they were foolhardy enough to want to travel all the way down the boot to the toe instead of taking refuge in the north.
It's all complete stupidity.
To keep the record straight, I have never said nor meant to imply that there was 100% continuity anywhere in Italy since the first millennium B.C.,but this nonsense about replacement and then this fairy tale of mass Northern migration to someplace like Calabria, in particular, is an absurdity.
He and the anthrogenica crowd love G25; well, I gave them a G25 analysis. He didn't think one sample should be used so I removed it.
The Caucasus sample doesn't make the top 25 matches. While some of the 2 way results do use it, others, with similar distances, do not.
Even results like these aren't good enough, neither for them nor for him, although in his case it's a function of a bias based on his own ethnicity.
They dishonestly do analyses using only the Sicani. He nitpicks anything he can so he can ignore the clear implications of the data.
He has a history here of trying in any way possible to deny Greek genetic influence in Southern Italy. Indeed, he tries to deny any continuity in Greece itself.
If someone wants to state that, fine, go ahead and look like a biased fool, but you don't get to lie about results.
According to former TA admin Sikeliot/Tauromenion and similar folks ,yes thats what one
should expect when talking about the descendants of Greek settlers in South Italy.
Probably he will never understand.The fact is that those people came as a folk migration, STAYED, and became ancestors of southern Italians. Do you understand that?
If the talk would be about Slavic or Albanian settlements in Medieval Mainland Greece instead of Greek ones in Ancient South Italy, i'm sure, he would.
It seems some people who post online never learned anything in high scool or college aboutYour problem has always been, in post after post, that you don't want to acknowledge that the Greeks contributed a lot of ancestry to Southern Italians, and that you can't STAND the fact that the Greeks have an illustrious heritage, part of it forged in Southern Italy.
My husband's ancestry is all from areas immediately adjacent to Greek settlements, and some of his people spoke Greek until 200 years ago. In isolated parts of the world language and genes are conserved. Educate yourself: look at a map of Calabria; it's perfect for that scenario.
Classical Greek civilization and its expansions,colonies
I will not go into that statement but it is worth mentioning that Anthrogenica posters, despite acting the role of experts, have defended to the last the eastern origin of the Etruscans by harassing all those who thought otherwise, when the conclusion that they were 'autochthonous' was the one that enjoyed the greatest consensus among scholars for more than 30 years. Hence, near-zero credibility.
As for slaves, the equation migrants equals slaves is always made, but it is more complex. At some point, and rather early if one considers the chronology of the Roman imperial period, citizenship was granted to almost everyone in the Empire.
I had not yet compared my raw-data with these ancient 'Greek' ones

What are the haplogroups?
Giorgia Meloni is half Sicilian and half Sardinian. She would probably cluster with the Sicani or a Himera 409 BCE sample on a PCA.
Sicani were still pretty close to the sicilian bell beaker, right?
Franceso: Here are the distances (Dodecad 12B) < 10 for the Sicani and Sicilian Bell Beaker I4930 (coordinates estimated from GEDMATCH Kit). So considering the Sicilian Beaker is 1600 years or more older than the Sicani sample, reasonable distances in my view. The other Sicani have distances > 10 to about 13.

Clearly there was some admixture in between. I thought I read it was an increase in Aegean like ancestry.
I don't know what this island term means .....................history of Sappada was it was under Veneto region pre-2010 and it was moved under Friuli region since then, it has nothing to do with language.
It was changed to its correct place as it was prior to the creation of Italy.............the first Italian government erred on the border settings ............same as they refuse to say that there is a South-Tyrol in Italy

You're right, for the last five years Sappada has been part of the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region and no longer Veneto. All the more reason why this sample is meaningless. The fact remains that Sappada's original language is Germanic and therefore cannot be used to represent genetically the population of northern Italy, be it Veneto or Friuli-Venezia Giulia. At most, it can represent Italy's linguistic minorities.

La parlata di Sappada/Plodn, il sappadino o plodarisch, è stata classificata come austriaco-bavarese o pustero-carinziana, definizioni che caratterizzano la matrice tedesca dell’isola linguistica alloglotta e i contatti avuti durante i secoli con la Pusteria, il Tirolo dell’Est e la Carinzia. Come le comunità consorelle di Sauris (Zahre) e Timau (Tischlbòng) nella vicina Carnia, Sappada si differenzia nettamente dal territorio circostante per le sue differenze linguistiche e culturali. Il dialetto sappadino può essere definito come una sopravvivenza del medio-alto tedesco: i primi abitanti della valle hanno portato con sé questa parlata, che si è conservata fino al Novecento, subendo influenze lessicali dal ladino e dal tedesco. La grammatica sappadina rispecchia quella tedesca nelle costruzioni morfologiche e sintattiche, sebbene i parlanti abbiano apportato semplificazioni e uniformato eventuali eccezioni, appianando le difficoltà. In confronto alle parlate di altre isole linguistiche, nonostante gli influssi esterni, il sappadino risulta nettamente più fedele alla sua matrice germanica, fatto dovuto sicuramente all’isolamento.

treading in unknown waters when you want to exclude languages in italy which are not italian .........we have albanian, greek, german, french and slav pockets of language all over italy
most likely reason the populace wanted the change in sappada is that like Sardinia, Friuli pay no taxes to the state, while Veneto does ...................but staying under Cadore in Belluno province, Veneto would have been more profitable IMO
When we describe the Sicani as indigenous or autochthonous, what does that mean exactly?
1 - Do we mean that the ancestral components of the Sicani first coalesced into a single population in Sicily?
2 - Or do we mean that the population had been in Sicily for a significant length of time, perhaps a 1000 years, before the Greeks began to colonize the island, but that the Sicani had in fact originated elsewhere, perhaps in Iberia, perhaps somewhere on the Italian mainland, perhaps even Illyria?
3 - Or do we mean that the Sicani were an Iron Age population that was largely continuous with earlier Bronze Age populations in Sicily, but contained certain new elements from elsewhere? And if this last meaning, where were the post-EBA but pre-Greek elements from?
This comment by Markod, comment #31 on the 2019 thread devoted to Fernandes & Olalde, "Arrival of Steppe & Iranian Related Ancestry in Islands of the Western Mediterranean," seems to support notion that a major ancestral component of the Sicani came from Illyria ==
Just gotta love how conclusions are drawn absent any evidence from archaeology or genetics.
You snicker relentlessly. However, if you look at my comment just above, #246 on this thread, you will see that I actually posed a very naive, three-part question. I am definitely not drawing conclusions about where the Sicani originated. I simply pointed to Markod's comment regarding possible origin of the major G lineage among the Sicani (which happens to be my own), and this lineage appears to have been in Sicily at least since middle Bronze Age.
So let me yield the floor to you, and maybe you can address the 3-part question I posed in comment #246.
Going back to the paper, already quoted by Real Expert on page 1 of this thread, it looks Iron Age Sicani largely descended from earlier Bronze Age populations in Sicily, but they now carried an Iranian-related component (6.3% give or take)
And then for more recent gene flow, the authors construct various two-way models with Iron Age Italy, BA Spain, IA Spain, LBA Armenia, and IA Balkans. Perhaps all these places contributed elements to the Sicani make-up, though Armenian influence was surely more mediated than the others.this group can be modeled as an admixture of four sources that distantly contributed to the genetic composition of Europeans (P = 0.179): Northwestern Anatolian Neolithic farmers (Turkey_Barcin_N; 76.4 ± 1.2%), WHGs (6.4 ± 1.0%), early farmers from Iran (Iran_GanjDareh_N; 6.3 ± 1.5%), and Early Bronze Age (EBA) Steppe herders associated with the Yamnaya cultural complex (Russia_Samara_EBA_Yamnaya; 10.9 ± 1.6%), which indicates an increase of Iranian-related admixture compared with the preceding LBA Sicily group, which can be best modeled without that component
