So can someone explain exactly who are Italians? From the 23andme PCA plots it gives the impression that Italians are just Mid-Easterners.
Here is a Sicilian (I think north Italians also end up in the same place among the orange squares).
And then this one from John Novembre, which tells a different story (Italians close to central Europe as much as Balkan people are):

Looking at Italians, especially those from Milan, I can't really see them being that genetically close to Assyrians and etc. Lots of lighter Nordic types, some who almost look German.
