Pax Augusta: Thanks for the PCA's you posted to the community here in this forum. Since there are no new modern Sicilian samples in the Reitsema et al 2022 paper, can you tell me where do the modern Sicilian samples that we have published to date and have coordinates estimated from various amateur calculators plot on your PCA with these new samples.
I will do others, but with K12b in the post #177 you can find the Sicilian academic samples in the PCAs.
117884, the Himera sample so close to Dodecad's combined Sicilian/Southern Italian set is my husband's closest sample, at 7.9.
This is his two way: 62%117884 and 38% 120166, a very eastern shifted Himera civilian population. Also, the soldiers in the 409 B.C. Battle were local hoplites.

I17784 is low quality sample and I20166 is ancient Greek. Look at high Caucasus in other charts.And there was never replacement just admixture from other regions.
@KingJohn … it seems that the Stamatoyannopoulos samples in the dataset, don’t carry enough Y chr. calls for a confident y Haplogroup prediction in the Y-Morley, and Yseq oracle.Nice salento
Can you check also the greek samples
Mainland, and islanders ?
Jovialis: I have been thinking of some additional analyses to with the New Iron Age Sicilian samples. Since it is not disputable that the Sicani were an Iron Age Sicilian population and the evidence based on the new Reitsema et al 2022 study, likely autochthonous, here are the Sicani samples using your Italian model (with Minoan source populations). It works quite well in my opinion.

I17884 is a very low quality sample. And the other one is a high quality Ancient Greek (civilian) sample.
I was not talking about Northern European admixture at all. Your own model imply >25% West Asian admixture with a very distant source and it has quite a good fit without any North European source.
I did post those models you did.
74.60% Himera_480_BC_Battle_Med:I10952 + 25.40% Himera_480_BC_Battle_Caucasus_lc:I17872
And most of others have the Caucasus source too.
I17884 has 5% coverage and is distant from other Greek samples with a minimum distance of 12.
I was looking for it in G25 database and it was not put there because it has only 5% coverage. There was also even an E-V13 sample plotting with Caucasus with even lower coverage which also was ignored by G25.
