This emendation throws new light on the origin of the Zachlumian dynasty and of the Zachlumi themselves. C.'s informant derived what he says about the country of Michael's ancestors from a native source, probably from a member of the prince's family; and the information is reliable. If this is so, we must regard the dynasty of Zachlumje and at any rate part of its people as neither Croat nor Serb. It seems more probable that Michael's ancestor, together with his tribe, joined the Croats when they moved south; and settled on the Adriatic coast and the Narenta, leaving the Croats to push on into Dalmatia proper. It is true that our text says that the Zachlumi 'have been Serbs since the time of that prince who claimed the protection of the emperor Heraclius' (33/9-10); but it does not say that Michael's family were Serbs, only that they 'came from the unbaptized who dwell on the river Visla, and are called (reading Litziki) "Poles'". Michael's own hostility to Serbia (cf. 32/86-90) suggests that his family was in fact not Serb; and that the Serbs had direct control only over Trebinje (see on 32/30). C.'s general claim that the Zachlumians were Serbs is, therefore, inaccurate; and indeed his later statements that the Terbouniotes (34/4—5), and even the Narentans (36/5-7), were Serbs and came with the Serbs, seem to conflict with what he has said earlier (32/18-20) on the Serb migration, which reached the new Serbia from the direction of Belgrade. He probably saw that in his time all these tribes were in the Serb sphere of influence, and therefore called them Serbs, thus ante-dating by three centuries the state of affairs in his own day. But in fact, as has been shown in the case of the Zachlumians, these tribes were not properly speaking Serbs, and seem to have migrated not with the Serbs but with the Croats. The Serbs at an early date succeeded in extending their sovereignty over the Terbouniotes and, under prince Peter, for a short time over the Narentans (see on 32/67). The Diocleans, whom C. does not claim as Serbs, were too near to the Byzantine thema of Dyrrhachion for the Serbs to attempt their subjugation before C.'s time</span> </li> <li id="cite_note-84"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-84">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFDvornik1970" class="citation book cs1"><a href="/wiki/Francis_Dvornik" title="Francis Dvornik">Dvornik, Francis</a> (1970). <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://books.google.com/books?id=OwHZAAAAMAAJ"><i>Byzantine Missions Among the Slavs: SS.

(2009) showed a variance peak for I2a1 in the Ukraine and, based on the observed pattern of variation, it could be suggested that at least part of the I2a1 haplogroup could have arrived in the Balkans and Slovenia with the Slavic migrations from a homeland in present-day Ukraine. The calculated age of this specific haplogroup together with the variation peak detected in the suggested Slavic homeland could represent a signal of Slavic migration arising from medieval Slavic expansions. However, the strong genetic barrier around the area of Bosnia and Herzegovina, associated with the high frequency of the I2a1b-M423 haplogroup, could also be a consequence of a Paleolithic genetic signal of a Balkan refuge area, followed by mixing with a medieval Slavic signal from modern-day Ukraine.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&amp;rft.genre=article&amp;rft.jtitle=Annals+of+Human+Biology&amp;rft.atitle=The+paternal+perspective+of+the+Slovenian+population+and+its+relationship+with+other+populations&amp;rft.volume=40&amp;rft.issue=6&amp;rft.pages=515-526&amp;rft.date=2013&amp;rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fapi.semanticscholar.org%2FCorpusID%3A34621779%23id-name%3DS2CID&amp;rft_id=info%3Apmid%2F23879710&amp;rft_id=info%3Adoi%2F10.3109%2F03014460.2013.813584&amp;rft.au=A.+Zupan&amp;rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.researchgate.net%2Fpublication%2F251567977&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3ACroats" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-124"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-124">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFUnderhill2015" class="citation cs2">Underhill, Peter A.

Ez is mutatja, hogy nem feltétlenül népek, mintsem családok sikerével, nemzetségek elterjedésével is számolnunk kell, és ezt a jelenlegi etnikai identitással összefüggésbe hozni lehetetlen. A csoport elterjedése alapján valószínűsíthető, hogy a szláv népek migrációjában vett részt, így válva az R1a-t követően a második legdominánsabb csoporttá a mai Kelet-Európában. Nyugat-Európából viszont teljes mértékben hiányzik, kivéve a kora középkorban szláv nyelvet beszélő keletnémet területeket.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Abook&amp;rft.genre=book&amp;rft.btitle=Genetika+%C3%A9s+%C5%91st%C3%B6rt%C3%A9net&amp;rft.pages=58&amp;rft.pub=Napk%C3%BAt+Kiad%C3%B3&amp;rft.date=2019&amp;rft.isbn=978-963-263-855-3&amp;rft.aulast=Pamjav&amp;rft.aufirst=Horolma&amp;rft.au=Feh%C3%A9r%2C+Tibor&amp;rft.au=N%C3%A9meth%2C+Endre&amp;rft.au=Kopp%C3%A1ny+Cs%C3%A1ji%2C+L%C3%A1szl%C3%B3&amp;rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fbooks.google.com%2Fbooks%3Fid%3Dxq2xDwAAQBAJ&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3ACroats" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-Fóthi-127"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-Fóthi_127-0">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFFóthiGonzalezFehér2020" class="citation cs2">Fóthi, E.; Gonzalez, A.; Fehér, T.; et&#160;al.

The group's demographic expansion may have begun in Southeast Poland around that time, as carriers of the oldest subgroup are found there today. The group cannot solely be tied to the Slavs, because the proto-Slavic period was later, around 300–500 CE... The SNP-based age of the Eastern European CTS10228 branch is 2200 ± 300 years old. The carriers of the most ancient subgroup live in Southeast Poland, and it is likely that the rapid demographic expansion which brought the marker to other regions in Europe began there. The largest demographic explosion occurred in the Balkans, where the subgroup is dominant in 50.5% of Croatians, 30.1% of Serbs, 31.4% of Montenegrins, and in about 20% of Albanians and Greeks. As a result, this subgroup is often called Dinaric. It is interesting that while it is dominant among modern Balkan peoples, this subgroup has not been present yet during the Roman period, as it is almost absent in Italy as well (see Online Resource 5; ESM_5).</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&amp;rft.genre=article&amp;rft.jtitle=Archaeological+and+Anthropological+Sciences&amp;rft.atitle=Genetic+analysis+of+male+Hungarian+Conquerors%3A+European+and+Asian+paternal+lineages+of+the+conquering+Hungarian+tribes&amp;rft.volume=12&amp;rft.issue=1&amp;rft.pages=31&amp;rft.date=2020&amp;rft_id=info%3Adoi%2F10.1007%2Fs12520-019-00996-0&amp;rft_id=info%3Abibcode%2F2020ArAnS..12...31F&amp;rft.aulast=F%C3%B3thi&amp;rft.aufirst=E.&amp;rft.au=Gonzalez%2C+A.&amp;rft.au=Feh%C3%A9r%2C+T.&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3ACroats" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-Olalde2023-128"><span class="mw-cite-backlink">^ <a href="#cite_ref-Olalde2023_128-0"><sup><i><b>a</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-Olalde2023_128-1"><sup><i><b>b</b></i></sup></a></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFOlaldeCarrión2023" class="citation journal cs1">Olalde, Iñigo; Carrión, Pablo (7 December 2023). <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10752003">"A genetic history of the Balkans from Roman frontier to Slavic migrations"</a>. <i><a href="/wiki/Cell_(journal)" title="Cell (journal)">Cell</a></i>. <b>186</b> (25): P5472–5485.E9. <a href="/wiki/Doi_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="Doi (identifier)">doi</a>:<span class="id-lock-free" title="Freely accessible"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://doi.org/10.1016%2Fj.cell.2023.10.018">10.1016/j.cell.2023.10.018</a></span>. <a href="/wiki/PMC_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="PMC (identifier)">PMC</a>&#160;<span class="id-lock-free" title="Freely accessible"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10752003">10752003</a></span>. <a href="/wiki/PMID_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="PMID (identifier)">PMID</a>&#160;<a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38065079">38065079</a>.</cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&amp;rft.genre=article&amp;rft.jtitle=Cell&amp;rft.atitle=A+genetic+history+of+the+Balkans+from+Roman+frontier+to+Slavic+migrations&amp;rft.volume=186&amp;rft.issue=25&amp;rft.pages=P5472-5485.E9&amp;rft.date=2023-12-07&amp;rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov%2Fpmc%2Farticles%2FPMC10752003%23id-name%3DPMC&amp;rft_id=info%3Apmid%2F38065079&amp;rft_id=info%3Adoi%2F10.1016%2Fj.cell.2023.10.018&amp;rft.aulast=Olalde&amp;rft.aufirst=I%C3%B1igo&amp;rft.au=Carri%C3%B3n%2C+Pablo&amp;rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov%2Fpmc%2Farticles%2FPMC10752003&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3ACroats" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-FOOTNOTECvjetan_et_al.2004-129"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-FOOTNOTECvjetan_et_al.2004_129-0">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><a href="#CITEREFCvjetan_et_al.2004">Cvjetan et al. 2004</a>.</span> </li> <li id="cite_note-130"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-130">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFRalph_et_al.2013" class="citation journal cs1">P.
