So, basically the second picture is telling that the Chimariots are not to be distinguished from Albanians, their dress and language being perfectly similar, and they do not understand one syllable of Romaic (Greek). So, in 1830 the Chimariots did not know any Greek. That's a fact that we knew...

Rose W. Lane, a founder of the US Libertarian movement, documented some fantastic myths in Albania.She recorded claims that the ancient Macedonians had two capitals, one in Pella as well as another in the Mat valley in Albania, where they claimed Alexander the Great was born. (from AlbHistory in...

I have to get back to everything I read lately, in order to find the references. There were quite long stories told by elders of Theth in 1940-1950, mentioning Alexander the Great as LECI.

You could not expect another result. The Illyrians were very close genetically to Macedonians and both survived much more than the ancient Greeks.

Why don't we have a MATI representation? Mati is probably one of the areas that can be better related with Ancient Macedonians. All those collection of stories and tales by Rrok Zojzi in Northern Alps that still mention Aleksander the Great in our folklore.

The conclusion of the authors is the following: ==== A systematic analysis of all relevant forms goes beyond our scope, but one can fairly say that the number of closely knit lexemes with strong etymologies is in fact not significantly higher between Albanian and Balto-Slavic than one would...

Why they don't fit the proto-Albanian. The names are easily part of the Albanian language, even after the revival in the previous century. Moreover, Stipcevic mentioned several Illyrian names preserved in the 11th century in Croatia. Albania on the other side did convert to catholic names very...

These are just on my gallery from a recent visit to Apollonia Museum. Tritos, Plator and Enkleida, just on two stones.

Do you know the amount of Illyrian names in Durres, Apollonia and Butrinti? It's pretty ambitious to call some towns greek, when Greece has a huge number of archeological excavation sites, but with less and less DNA analysis. The amount of EU funds in Greek Archeological Sites is so huge that...

Mic drop! Mic drop!

Well, it is a pity that the work of first Albanian ethnographer Rrok Zojzi (1910-1995) is not present that much in the main literature. His collection of old poems and tales inherited for centuries would be a treasure, especially in this era of DNA comparison, including the mentioning of the...

Still Bruzmi in Anthrogenica ===== The post is old (before we started collecting G25 coords and G25 sims) and doesn't refer to the Albanian_Mirdita average. The Mirditë average was created by several samples including the one which is uploaded on the official G25 dataset. Here are the official...

"The Genetic History of the Southern Arc" published the first aDNA results from Velika Gruda, a multi-generational tumulus site of an Illyrian clan in Late Bronze Age Montenegro. All men belonged to hg J-L283. 40% of Albanian and 2% Montenegrin men descend from it in today's Montenegro. It is...

All the focus on Cinamak individuals, but no analysis for the Velika Gruda's one. Both very important despite being different haplogroups.

Cinamaka individual perpara 4500 vitesh, blonde me blue eyes (Lazarides et al 2022), R1b, si shumica absolute e R1b se asaj kohe. I therret gjenetika Kuksianet ne Britani, bashkohet R1b e proto-ilireve me R1b britanike :bigsmile:

Kush po strengthen his point? Pse cfare ishin ata qe erdhen para 5000 vitesh nga Ukraina? Te duket se ishin me ngjyre kafe dhe me floke te zinj. Shumica absolute ishin R1b dhe J2b, ku R1b ke gjysmen e Evropes Veriore, njeri me bjond se tjetri dhe me shumicen me sy blu. Me pas te gjithe ndikimet...

A kane qene ndonjehere ne Kukes keta qypa? A e kane pare nga afer profilin e nje kuksiani nga Shtiqni, Bicaj apo Kolshi? Those people skulls are frozen in time. Bjonde, me sy blu dhe koken e madhe. Kuksianet origjinale jane the real deal.
