I've no doubt they are largely "localized" by now. It's like..2,100 years? How long since the Greco-Bactrian kingdoms collapsed?

By the way,it's not "Macedonia",those wankers are Slavs. Just call them FYROM.
Yes Strato Philopator, dead in 10AD was the last completely Greek ruler in the upper Indus Valley/northern half of Pakistan.

However even at the peak of Greek power the genetic impact will have been minimal as this region was already well populated and remainders from Alexanders army and subsequent Ionian immigrants would have only represented a fraction of the population.

A clear evidence of this is the fast adoption of Buddhism by the Greek rulers. We do have some Hellenic temples but most of these were destroyed and looted, some as recently as 1895 by British officers

Oddly enough, I have 3.8% Greek and Slavic ancestry. My family is Syed from my dads side and Mughal from the mothers side. Both sides are Punjabis
