Celtic Y dna in the balkans

[Ayetooey]

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?

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.

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.
