I would add that - of all Italy - Sicily is one of the regions where historically everyone ruled (and lived) over the centuries: Greeks Carthaginians Romans Germans/Franks/Vandals Bizantines Arabs French (Normans) Germans French again (Angevins) Spaniards (Aragonese first and later unified Spain) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Sicily https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Sicily Even Vikings (briefly) ruled it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Sicily#Viking_Age https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Sicily#Viking_Age So - from a DNA analysis - you can probably find traces in the population of practically every "race" that existed in the basin of the Mediterranean sea (including Europe, Africa and the middle East) and even part of northern Europe.
