Not Ancient Greeks nor Romans

The Slavs brought their military influence in the Balkans, together with culture and language.  (Scythian)

1. Sclaveni migrated to Balkans governed by Bulgar Bans  (Avars gave them this role), and their language and culture was not "oh, so attractive" that 80% accepted it immediately. Especiall there in Illirycum. Perhaps old-church-slavonic was kind of a linqua latina for many populations but not for the Romans and Greeks.

2.This kind of research could easily proof (if needed politicaly) that American WASP's are in fact Indian aborigenes and have rights to this land. It's easy to find the same genes in both populations thousands years ago. I do appreciate your knowledge but I have distance to genetic and linguistic theories as well.

I just want to say that you, Scythian, have added a lot of substance to this discussion and I appreciate it. I know more about Y chromosome and mtDNA than ever before. It is fascinating, because it is objective and doesn't depend on an agenda and ethnic pride.

This is fascinating subject and worth pursuing. This field was manipulated for so long by all kind of people with imbecillic agendas.
As a person, do I care who my ancestor was 8,000 yrs ago? Nope.

However this is interesting from historic perspective.
Modern genetics destroyed a lot of nonsense. We can see that we all have originated from the same source. Our diversity is more cultural and linguistic, than physical. And even there all our languages originated also from the same source. This is more on how did we manage to acquire all this diversity.

Neanderthals, that's for sure.. And uhm.. Pre-Indo-Europeans of course!
