I would add that - of all Italy - Sicily is one of the regions where historically everyone ruled (and lived) over the centuries:

Greeks

Carthaginians

Romans

Germans/Franks/Vandals

Bizantines

Arabs

French (Normans)

Germans

French again (Angevins)

Spaniards (Aragonese first and later unified Spain)

Even Vikings (briefly) ruled it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Sicily#Viking_Age

So - from a DNA analysis - you can probably find traces in the population of practically every "race" that existed in the basin of the Mediterranean sea (including Europe, Africa and the middle East) and even part of northern Europe.
