The Genomic History Of Southeastern Europe

[Kelmendasi]

So it seems like J2b2 was found in proto-Illyrian culture . No I2a1b(Din) was found which basically confirms that it isn't native there but in fact a Slavic arrival, nearly all I2a in the Balkans was I2a2. All the Bosniaks are crying right now

[Kelmendasi]

Is there any I2a-Din or R1a in pre-Medieval Balkan samples?

There wasn't any I2a-Din found but there was R1a which probably was part of the older Indo-European cluster

[Kelmendasi]

It's I2-M223 in Mesolithic Balkan, far away from Dinaric subclade.
Can not wait to see Bosniak reaction

I2-M223 is part of the Pre-Celtic/Germanic cluster if I am not mistaken. Yh same I can't wait to see their reactions

im seeing many r1a's and i2's in the Balkans, seems like we have to rethink the impact of the Slavic migrations

There are different subclades

Subclades... Those are what matter.

There was a shit-tonne of G2a though which doesn't really surprise me

Yes, G2a was high in parts of Europe for awhile back then, but others invaded and attacked them from all directions.

There is one R1a in Bronze age Bulgaria I think.

But this is R1a1a1b2, which is R1a-Z93, Indo-Iranian marker (not Balto-Slavic).

I haven't checked subclade

Scythian? Then I am not surprised. I don't see many modern Euros carrying this marker anyhow, except maybe Tatars?
