The
Anthrogenica member who made the
genetic distance maps showing that Ancient Greeks and Romans were identical to Modern Italians did the same thing with Iron Age (pre-Slavic) Balkan samples, confirming that they were also genetically similar, with "Croatians" in the north being more Northern Italian-like and "Bulgarians" in the south being more Southern Italian (and Greek)-like.
This is indigenous Southeastern European ancestry combining Neolithic Farmers and Bronze Age
Indo-Europeans, which is clearly
the same ancestry that's still in Italy today.

Hi Italianthro: Good to see you posting again. Can you tell me what calculator was used to do the analysis. I am not a member at Anthrogenica. Was it Eurogenes G25, K36, etc?
Sarah: I agree. This map and the one for the Ancient Greeks and Romans are really neat.
