>the southern celts were the actual mediterranans
they were MORE mediterranean, that is correct, because celts are a very broad cultural term that is genetically quite heterogenous,
however they are associated with archeological cultures of the iron age when mediterranean civilization has classically entered a period of decline in favour of outside cultures and an increase of extra-mediterranean cultural and genetic influence
just compare the etruscan vs later celt dominated italy as a reference point
>and even the strongly celtic admixed illyrians that inhabited the northwest balkan
celtic admixed illyrians were a separate group called the pannonians, illyria proper had very little connection to the celtic world and was thoroughly mediterranean, celtic influences among north most illyrians which appeared later in history are unequivocally a foreign element
>the greeks were never fully southern european
greeks have far less middle eastern ancestry than south italians, was true even before, even more so today when greeks are heavily genetically slavic
>irish and scots have little to do with the celts outside of language
as we concluded before celts are not a homogenous term so this cannot even be qualified in this way
not only that, but "scots" can refer to both a celtic and an overwhelmingly germanic populations, both of which exist in scotland depending on the region
>slavs largely descend from these people in northeastern european swamps
slavs are derived from a heterogenous mix of immigrants from areas ranging from today's western germany to the east of today's ukraine a lot of which were actually non slavic
and a lot of what you call neotenous is actually uralic derived russian trait LOL
>you can't relate because your slavic ancestors developed better breeding practices
i am genetically overwhelmingly slavic, have almost no balkans ancestry, my ancestors spoke slovene, i have 1/3 german dna according to dna tests
