If anything these samples have just proved what I have been saying all along. Even the Albanian autosomal DNA is at least partially Italian like like Italian_Veneto, Tuscany, Lazio etc , shows this autosomal DNA was never entirely lost. And among these samples there are individuals found that...
So J2b2-L283 is clearly proto-Albanian. But where is EV-13 ? One sample found in Croatia indicates it spread in Illyria too and a bottle neck effect ocurred.
Your average Gheg Albanian definitely does not cluster like a Mycenean or a Southern Albania. Especially not if you include Montenegro Albanians and Kosovo Albanians yet you were claiming all samples in Albania will cluster like Greeks or Myceneans and anyone who is more north is because of...
Many of these Illyrian samples are not even close to Myceneans. Even in Northern Albania there are samples that cluster like Northern Italian, Kosovo Albanian etc.
Maybe in Central and Southern Albania they clustered like Greeks and some Central / Southern Albanians , certainly does not seem to...
Same way you claimed Southern Illyrians etc would be 100% like Greeks or cluster like Greeks because of some Albanians, you claimed they would be Myceanean like, now you're saying Ancient Macedonians are different and acting like you have been knowing this for years ? Yet we can see even some...
The southern parts had some Greek population (so did Albania historically) . Thanks for telling me something I already knew. Some southern parts having a Greek population doesn't make Northern Macedonia = Ancient-Macedonian, mate.
The Ancient Macedonian state never began there, except for some...
The name is also found in Romania of people with Albanian origin such as Leca of Catun who was a Vlach figure

I googled Stipon Mountain and found nothing. Could of been taken from somewhere else.
Yeah, we probably came from the Albanoi or some related Illyrian tribe. Some of them probably lived in Dardania during Roman period after Roman-Illyrian wars together with Vlachs or from 900 AD and on wards during the Bulgarian Empire they spread East wards.
Probably just Albanian migrations to Bulgaria and there was also a Arbanas village there
'Arbanas' : en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arbanasi_(Veliko_Tarnovo)
Gheg-Tosk split is much older than 10th-11th century. The dialect split is believed to be ancient going back to the period around 400-600 AD.
Northern Macedonia was never Ancient Macedonia except for when they conquered it AFAIK. It became Roman Dardania and Roman Macedonia during Roman period. Peonians were most likely of Illyrian stock given their location or Thrako-Illyrian.
Its interesting though how these samples range from clustering like Iberinas / North Italian to Albanian. Even the ones who cluster like North Italians seem genetically close to Albanians like I said before, a mix of that and something else made them cluster more south/east like modern...
Very interesting results, especially that those samples range from Italian to Albanian like, one even clusters like a Caucasian.
So I was right we got the same ADNA as Northern Illyrians only with more East/South Shift. Maybe CHG+Neolithic? ( I am no expert on this)
Those samples in Northern Illyria were closest to Northern Italians autosomally for sure and I am not surprised since it is also close to Northern Italy
I agree. But the Albanian name follows an Albanian sound change from the Slavic that occurred over many hundreds of years I believe, kinda like how Berat comes from Belgrade ?
Would you agree with Anscombe that as a town its been Albanian since late sixteenth century? Seems to be possibly the...
