Andena/Andes/Andio/Antis — personal Illyrian names based on a root-word and- or ant-, found in both the southern and the Dalmatian-Pannonian (including modern Bosnia and Herzegovina) onomastic provinces; cf. Alb. andë (northern Albanian dialect, or Gheg) and ëndë (southern Albanian dialect or Tosk) "appetite, pleasure, desire, wish"; Andi proper name, Andizetes, an Illyrian people inhabiting the Roman province of Panonia.[80]
aran "field"; cf. Alb. arë; plural ara[81]
Ardiaioi/Ardiaei, name of an Illyrian people, cf. Alb. ardhja "arrival" or "descent", connected to hardhi "vine-branch, grape-vine", with a sense development similar to Germanic *stamniz, meaning both stem, tree stalk and tribe, lineage. However, the insufficiency of this theory is that so far there is no certainty as to the historical or etymological development of either ardhja/hardhi or Ardiaioi, as with many other words.[80]
Bilia "daughter"; cf. Alb. bijë, dial. bilë[82]

can- "dog"; related to Alb. qen[85]
Daesitiates, a name of an Illyrian people, cf. Alb. dash "ram", corresponding contextually with south Slavonic dasa "ace", which might represent a borrowing and adaptation from Illyrian (or some other ancient language).[80]

"One of the earliest theories on the origins of the Albanians, now considered obsolete, identified the proto-Albanians with an area of the Caucasus referred to by classical geographers as "Albania", which roughly corresponds with modern-day Azerbaijan. This theory supposed that the ancestors of the Albanians migrated westward to the Balkans in the late classical or early Medieval period. The Caucasian theory was first proposed by Renaissance humanists who were familiar with the works of classical geographers, and later developed by early 19th-century French consul and writer François Pouqueville. It was rendered obsolete in the 19th century when linguists proved that Albanian is an Indo-European, rather than Caucasian language.[116]"

No they aren't you retarded speng. If they were they would score 100% SE euro on autosomal like Greeks and Albanians

They are what?I saw the excel just moment ago.
23andme autosomal tests means nothing,all these tests are 'interpreted raw genetic data' .

Dream on boy. Anyways I doubt you would say this to an Albanians face. "Caucasian Albanian, aka Aghwan or Old Udi, is an extinct member of the Northeast Caucasian languages. It was spoken in Caucasian Albania, which stretched from current day south Dagestan to Azerbaijan. Linguists believe it is an early linguistic predecessor to the endangered North Caucasian Udi language." It has no relation to Albanian or any Indo-European language

[Kelmendasi]

They are what?

Slavs that originated in Ukraine

[Lek]

Yh the whole region of the Caucasus was called Iberia during that time

Poto Serbs and Croats came from Caucasus "Serboi" and "Hrvati'' . They were Sarmatians. They lived right next to Caucasus Albanians.

Mostly reconstructions from Indo-European.Not an argument.
The oldest and almost all illyrian words are thorough dalmatian, as expected.

Dafuq, are u actually retarded? Dalmatian was a Romance language

[Laberia]

Wrong,Illyrians lived in the illyrian kingdom that spread throughout the dalmatian border,they later got conquered by Romans,if you open any encyclopedia you will see that they dont speak about albanians at illyrians,i have one myself at it tells about croats ,yugoslavs were known since before albanians of having illyrian past.
There is no proof that ties albanians with illyrians,even wikipedia states this.
The first mention of albanians is in the 12th century despite numerous populations passing in that region.
The illyrian idea got pushed during Hoxha regime to give albanians a claim of being older than serbs.

Wrong, Enver Hoxha has nothing to do with the connection between Illyrians and Albanians:

Meanwhile for you Roma was invented a word to describe the falsifications of history from this communist dictator with Turkish origine named Çaushesku, protochronism:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protochronism

Protochronism (anglicized from the Romanian: Protocronism, from the Ancient Greek terms for first in time) is a Romanian term describing the tendency to ascribe, largely relying on questionable data and subjective interpretations, an idealised past to the country as a whole. While particularly prevalent during the regime of Nicolae Ceauşescu, its origin in Romanian scholarship dates back more than a century.
The term refers to perceived aggrandizing of Dacian and earlier roots of today's Romanians. This phenomenon is also pejoratively labelled "Dacomania" or sometimes "Thracomania," while its proponents prefer "Dacology."

Do you see gypsy?

Yh. Although I have seen some sources say that they come from Ukraine. But Sarmatians/Scythians did invade that region many times
