Western Crete had some Slavic settlements after the Byzantine reconquest from the Arabs. These were mainly Serbs and Bulgarians in service of Nikophoros II.
Moreover, that study by its own admittance it limited by sample size, and that image doesn't appear anywhere on it so I speculate the labels on the right (apart from the italic ones), are added with some cynicism.
This. The Ottomans did more ethnic displacing of people "Hey you of this ethnicity. All of you are moving here. Also give us your hottest daughters." than Stalin could ever have dreamed of.
Ethnic displacement is a common theme for middle eastern empires such as the roman empire, byzantine empire, turkish empire or persian empire. That's why there are Pashtuns in Iraq or why Syria is a sectarian clusterfrick.

No, there aren't. >Syria
moron.
Pashtuns in northern Iraq played large part in pre-Qajar era instability in Persia. You may be poorly educated but that's not my problem.
As for Syria it's very well known that there was a revolving door of Ottoman satraps there where sometimes they would bring some weird sect like the alawites, give them weapons and tell them to run things, other times they'd bring in some tribe from caucasus, then they'd find some local minority like the assyrians, then give the power to the majority so all the dispossessed and endangered majorities would he kept in check and then it's back to alawites etc. Homogeneity would make governance in middle-eastern ways difficult.

I forgot that in your brain it was all peaceful and beautiful until the British drew straight lines(through uninhabited desert). Sadly the reality doesn't conform to this fantasy.

No I'm just pointing out you're a brainlet moron and without any education. You think Pashtuns are part of Iraq and Alawites were sent by Ottomans as satraps. I've met 8 years olds smarter than you.
There was large amount of slavs entering Greece since 6th to 8th century AD, their penetration of the region was so dense that the byzantines were complaining that you've had large areas of the countryside where people only ever spoke slavic. Eventually, they also had to deal with the Bulgarians and their church that maintained independence from Constantinople and had its liturgy in what we now know as old church slavonic. This was seen as extremely dangerous(could you depend on these slavs to not help Bulgars and to stick to the Greek speaking church?) so a mass assimilation scheme was devised. The sources are fragmentary but knowing the earlier Roman practices when it came to it, it probably involved forced relocation. Eventually Bulgaria was destroyed and together with it its church but by that point the slavs were mostly assimilated.
Greeks were always massive cuckolds, which is why Anna Comnena thirsts for Norman wiener and the most popular piece of Byzantine literature is a story about a MVSLIM MAN breeding a Greek woman who later gives birth to the greatest """Greek""" warrior ever known.
Greek women are made for foreign wiener. Sorry, but that's just the truth Mehmetopoulos.
"...During this period not only
did ‘Sclavinias’ take part in the civil war of Toma the Slav, but there is also
evidence as well of the pirate activity of the Slavs on the Strymon [Dvornik
1926a: 54 (23–25); Sophoulis 2009: 127, fig. 27]. Some restrictions for Romans
(and especially monks) to visit those territories without the permission of the
iconoclast emperors are also suggested"
bit of raiding and later maybe some forced resettlements to stop them from starting shit together with other tribes liniving near the northern border

Hod did the Romanians end up more TURK'd than the Bulgarians?
Canoes and primitive boats
Ottomans captured Balkan Slav janissaries. Let them start families.

There are more thracian haplogroups in crete than slavic. The model is poor

Sklavenes were sent across the Empire to farm and pleasure Byzantine wieners, just like under the Abbasids and Ottomans.
