Celts were all over the Balkans and mixed heavily with the Illyrians. Yet celt clades like r1b-u152 and G2a are pretty low in the balkans where as paleo balkanite clades are decent in size; why is that?

Was E-V13 a major lineage of Hallstatt Celts and Italics?

It's possible that some of the clades in the Balkans could be of more recent celt origin, as opposed to them all being of Illyrian/Thracian/Dacian origin.

Well some believe they were the carriers of I2a-din, before being slavicised.

Isn't that confirmed?

We don't have any Bastarnae ancient dna as far as I know. It's just a theory some have. Oldest I2a-din found dates back to 900 AD only.
