I very much doubt the 'Romans' were these cucks because:
1) Their y-dna/genetic profile is not associated with Roman conquests/colonization. 'Italic' admixture is negligible everywhere
2) They said they were half-Trojan, so being half-East Med is in line with it.
Also there's only two samples from the Republican period. Pic related. The rest are ooga booga Iron Age tribals who lived in tiny mudhut villages at the time. It can be argued that R435 is a Gaul because it's the only one that is particularly close to South French. Romans were probably already half-East Med by this time like the other sample indicates.
