The Illyrians, Greeks and Thracians were the only ones who were of mixed y-dna lineages, unlike most other Europeans who were of a single lineage and were not mixed until Roman times.
The E-v13 DNA linage evolved in Greece about 15,000 years ago from E linage immigrants that evolved in Tunisia and about 8,000 years ago the J2b linage evolved in Greece from J linage immigrants from Georgia. About 12,000 years ago the I ydna evolved in Croatia and Bosnia but mostly kept out of Greece. About 4,000 years ago R1b linage migrants may have came to northern Greece (or they may have already been there much earlier) from the Balkans which was already dominated by the M102 and M78 linages.
