Is aprooved that the Dardanoi ( Illyrian ) or Dardanos ( Thracian ) have Thracian origins . But the mixation with the Illyrian tribes create a kind of Illyrization of the Dardans .
But the most important thing is that they consideres themselves of Illyrian Identity . Not only the Illyrian or Illyrized part near Scupi ( REAL AL. Shkupi not FALSE BG. Skopje ) but already the Thracian part near Naissus ( REAL AL. Nish not FALSE SR. Nis ) .
Vlachs of northern Greece left Wallachia ( Romania ) in the VIII Cent. A.C. for Thessaly , and later a part move to Epirus and REAL GR. Macedonia ( Makedonia not Makedonija ) . They have Romanian orgins but in majority they consideres themselves Greeks !

1~ Illyrian is the origin and DNA !
2~ Thracian is only influence (linguistical) !
3~ Latin ? Albanian doesn't have latin words , only French borrowings !
4~ Slavic ! Only Shkip (Kosovan) use some Serbian words , the rest of the Albanians cannot understand them !
5~ Turkish , Ha Ha Ha . Greek has more Turkish words than Albanian !
6~ Other elements ???

But in all and all your right Morphesau , the Turks in Albania in 1913 was 5% of the population , these days are only 5.000 .
