Pretty close to that of Sicily actually except for the I1 and R1a being lower.

[Sikeliot]

Wait sorry I mean in SICILY the I and R1a are lower. Those being higher in Salentines speaks to their Greek ancestry.

As if Greeks would carry huge amounts of R1a..tss

What is actually interesting is the R1b they have

Which is the history and distribution in other regions of this R1b?

R1a is higher in Greece than in Italy.

The R1b in some parts of southern Italy matches with Armenia, not with Western Europe. I have no idea about these.

That doesn't mean it is particularly high in Greece

This what i suspected
But i have seen something about Armenian genetic history where it was claimed that this type of R1b spread from Armenia into all
of Europe,not only Italy.

Are you sure no other Europeans have this type of R1b?

It is highest in Calabria, eastern Sicily, and Crete as far as Europe goes, I have no idea about anywhere else.
