Timetable: Oldest civilisations & Balkans (Illyria)
from bellow one can see that Greeks/Hellenes are by far the oldest people in Balkans (while its offshoots such as Thracians, Phrygians and most likely hellenistic or southern Illyrians appear later on). Balkans is truly Greek peninsula or Greek Haimos. Minoans are closely interconnected to Hellenes whom they influenced greatly.
