I find Lebanese claims of ancestry…
I find Lebanese claims of ancestry from "Phoenicians", modern Greeks from ancient Greeks, etc total bogus. Recursing 13 centuries & 30 generations backwards, each has 2^30 , > 1 billion ancestors assuming 0 intermarriage. 1) Except for insulated spots, over 2500 years everyone in the Mediterranean became part of the same soup. 2) People were more physically differentiated then.
