I've been questioning my Grandmother about ancestry of her people she said:
My Father and Mother come from Gorani people whose parents were related to Albanians.
My Husband (Your Grandfather) is Slavic (Croatian or Serbian) "but still with unknown Last Name (Zirić) that isn't slavic, and
it's related to Illyrian name "Ziraeus" albeit slavicized version. He was born in the region where Illyrian tribe Iapodes (Japodi)
had their capital villiage.".
Your Father is then result of both Slavic and Gorani/Albanian blood.
----
Then my Mother (who according to DNA tests) is related to French people or Celts probably
(cause Celts mixed with Iapodes tribe) according to historical sources, and family of my mother lived in secluded village,
they never traveled out of this region.
Balkans is extremely mixed with various peoples. This is just a small example, can anyone imagine
what happened in the last 2000 years?
So I am basically Slav-Albanian-Celt who lived in Serbia, then Montenegro, then Croatia and now Bosnia.
I think that Balkan (Helm Peninsula) is even more homogenous nowdays than people actually imagine, and Albanians are just
a huge secluded tribe that became a nation. Funny but that's probably correct.
