    Default Cretans, Aegean islanders, Sicilians in terms of "N. Euro" and "SW Asian" affinity.

    Despite Cretans being lightest of the three, they have the least North Euro affinity, along with some (but not all) Sicilians.

    I put together a lot of results to showcase this. Genetics in this case do not match phenotype. Cyclades and other Aegean (Euboea, Samos, etc) and even Chios and Dodecanese have more North Euro than Crete or Sicily.

    North Aegean also has very high Atlantomed affinity.

    None of the islands are exactly like Sicily. They have lower North Euro than anyone, North Aegean levels of Atlanto-Med, and Cretan/Dodecanese levels of SW Asian plus a North African element, and in some, a small reduction in Caucasus affinity.
