Apparently most Greeks have significant portion of Early Slavic DNA

[Roy]

It is a lot, but it is actually similar to percentages that people on this message board have theorised it to be which was over 30%.

Could be true.
In any case the ability of the Slavs to reach the islands must have been very limited, a fact corroborated by the absence of archaeological finds as well as the absence of Slavic place names.

Looks like a bad model, Greeks have Slavic but there is zero Slavic in Cyprus. Fishy.



You don't have any Balto-Slavic.

What about it reaching Cyprus indirectly thanks to Slavic-admixed Greeks mixing with the locals?

On such a scale?
I would rather point ancient Greeks closeness to early IE Central Europe.

Cypriots are Levantine chads, and have 2% Baltic on average. If they are 11% slavic then proto slavs must have only had 20% baltic. Turkish DNA project are a bunch of clowns.

Cypriots are genetically located right in the middle between extreme southern Europe (extreme southern Italy, Malta, Aegean islands etc.) and the Middle East, in my opinion the Cypriots can be divided as 50% Ancient Greece (Especially Minoans) and 50% Middle East, obviously there is those who have more of a European component and some more Middle Eastern, I do not think they are totally Levantine

My thousandth post, in turn, should be dedicated to my Pomeranian countrymen who traveled or rather spied in Greece in year 590.

(10) On the following day three men, Sclavenes by race, who were not wearing any iron or military
equipment, were captured by the emperor's bodyguards. Lyres were their baggage, and they were not
carrying anything else at all. (11) And so the emperor enquired what was their nation, where was their
allotted abode, and the cause of their presence in the Roman lands. (12) They replied that they were
Sclavenes by nation and that they lived at the boundary of the western ocean;10 the Chagan had
dispatched ambassadors to their parts to levy a military force and had lavished many gifts on their
nation's rulers;11 (13) and so they accepted the gifts but refused him the alliance, asserting that the
length of the journey daunted them, while they sent back to the Chagan for the purpose of making a
defence these same men who had been captured; they had completed the journey in fifteen months; but
the Chagan had forgotten the law of ambassadors and had decreed a ban on their return; (14) since they
had heard that the Roman nation was much the most famous, as far as can be told, for wealth and
clemency, they had exploited the opportunity and retired to Thrace; (15) they carried lyres since it was
not their practice to gird weapons on their bodies, because their country was ignorant of iron and
thereby provided them with a peaceful and troublefree life; they made music on lyres because they did
not know how to sound forth on trumpets. For they would quite reasonably say that for those who had
no knowledge of warfare, musical pursuits were uncultivated,12 as as it were. (16) And so, as a result of their words, the emperor marvelled at their tribe and judged that those
same barbarians who had encountered him were worthy of hospitality; in amazement at the size of their
bodies and the nobility of their limbs, he sent these men under escort to Heracleia.

Mycenaean fits fine too

Half Mycenaean with Kura or Iran I'd guess being proxy for Eteocypriots + Anatolian Greeks and Canaanite Phoenician +Arab.

Cool, to me from test to test it gives different populations, on many tests Minoan I0073 in other tests Mycenaean I90041, in general it gives me about 30/40% Minoan/Mycenaean dna, honestly I think it's really a pity that people, in Cyprus, in Southern Italy/Sicily and also in Greece know so little about this common story, even if lately i am noticing that there are facebook pages, instagram etc. who are starting to talk about all this

[catgeorge]

Kura Araxes first then Mycenean...and you have the Greeks

[Thracian]

Terrible models. According to their models, Macedonian Greeks are Slavic as Serbs and more Slavic than Bulgarians, and Thessalians are Slavic as Bulgarians .
