@rzorsa@MicSokolli Greeks had ties with the Phrygians in Anatolia, even much of their extinct language is similar to Greek but the Phrygians are considered distinct people.
Same thing with Albanians. Can't claim "Illyrian" ancestry same way Greeks can't claim all of the Anatolians were "Greek".
@AncientDardania Of course. But I'm surprised that you people never claim Napoleon Zervas since he was an arvanite Greek. He was great at his job, cleaning up the trash from Epirus. π
@theyvetakenal@GamerEQ7 I'm pointing out that the reason you're using an amateur's horrible research instead of showing the reality is because you're a Turk.
Also I don't think that you understand what the screenshot says.
This is Bronze Age Greece diversity, including samples 3-5ky BP. As far as we know from ancient DNA, the population of Greece, to which Homer's Achaeans belonged, was a subset of West Eurasia, genetically between Europe and West Asia as the Aegean is geographically.
@AncientDardania@DociReport Trump did visit the homelands of his parents. I hope that one day poor Albanoids like you will realize that making a fool out of your already laughing stock of a nation for a few extra bucks each month is not worth it.
@ISO20022Crypto@ArchysLife I'm applying the same logic that OP used. The name Ellas (Greece) was used by ancient Greeks to describe the place as well, despite a unified country not existing.
@Illyrianzz@jonalbania@FilteredZero We wuz white! Ok my barely fairer balkaner friend. Does that make you and your nation any less of a nuisance for Europe with your incredible crime rate? Or does that make you any more useful to humanity in general with your lack of positive contributions? π
@sevatarion333 Their trajectory is comparable to India in that they seem to mostly survive in their very worst forms and dwell in the ruins of an ancient greatness
