Thanks so much for the insight. Stepped away for a year and am trying to get caught up on any new developments.
Hello,
I am the Albanian, (E-Y49685), the "relative" of Del Turco. I think than my ancestors moved to that part of the Balkans, where Albania is today, around 1000 years ago. My hypothesis is that they were sent there by Byzantium to spread the Christianity among Bulgarians, Albanians, Vlachs that populated the area at that time. Also, I believe that my ancestors were fully Hellenized/Christianized when moved there. The village of my ancestors is located very close to Greece and Northern Macedonia. I have another "relative", (Based on FamilytreeDNA / Big Y, I and him, belong to the haplogroup E-BY55818), that states that he is an ethnic Macedonian, but he is born in Northern Greece, not far from the village from where my roots are.
Also, the 23andMe shows that I have plenty "relatives" in Peloponnese, Greece.
I have very limited knowledge about the DNA science ... I hope this helps a bit.

Hi Diogenis,
I am the Italian (E-Y49685), the relative of Diogenis. From what I can tell, my ancestors originated in the Armenian/Turkey area and then migrated to Italy then to USA in 1905. My earliest descendant that I can locate is from Mosciano Sant Angelo Italy in 1725. It is exciting having someone on the tree that I match with. If you find anything out about our heritage please let me know. Thanks
that helps thanks for all this information
could be an armenian byzantine connection
armenians were crucial in byzantine army
and some of the byzantine emperors had armenian ancestery

Fwiw, it looks absolutely dreadful, and not just because of the gross historical inaccuracy.
