Looking at the Gedmatch results of Iron Age Thrace samples, they appear to have high West Asian (Caucasus-like) component.
I was wondering if it's visible in the phenotypes of Greek statues.

Not to me. I'd say Pontid, North Pontid, Atlantid, AtlantoMed and Dinarid.

Most of the statues seem to have close set eyes and long noses, like dinarics and armenoids, so some dinariform tendency. But I wouldn't think at first they look like people from caucasus.

I'm honestly seeing something caucasus or gedrosian. Maybe I'm mistaking it for something else.

They look quite odd for SE Europe. Some of them look Egyptian/N African, others look slightly Turkic.

They look Pindus.

I can picture Pyro and Alex (without that nose) as shepherds but not the rest.
