Ancestors
- Proto-Indo-Europeans (Proto-Indo-European speakers)
- Proto-Graeco-Phrygians (Proto-Graeco-Phrygian speakers)
- Proto-Graeco-Armenians (Proto-Graeco-Armenian speakers)
- Proto-Graeco-Phrygians (Proto-Graeco-Phrygian speakers)
Possible Direct Ancestors
- Graeco-Phrygians
- Hellenics
- (?) Ancient Macedonians
- Proto-Greeks
- Ancient Greeks (esp. speakers of northern dialects)
- (?) Paeonians / Paeones There are different views and still no agreement among scholars about the Paeonians' ethnic and linguistic kinship. Some such as Wilhelm Tomaschek and Paul Kretschmer claim that the language spoken by the Paeonians belonged to the Illyrian family, while Dimitar Dechev claims affinities with Thracian. Irwin L. Merker considers that the language spoken by the Paeonians was closely related to Greek (and ancient Macedonian if it was a distinct language from ancient Greek), a Hellenic language with "a great deal of Illyrian and Thracian influence as a result of this proximity".[1]
- Agrianes[2] (also, Agriani and Agrii) (it is also claimed that this tribe was Thracian)
- Almopians[3] (also Almopioi)
- Derrones[4] (also Derroni) (it is also claimed that this tribe was Thracian)
- Doberes[5]
- Laeaeans[2] (also Laeaei and Laiai)
- Odomantes[6] (also Odomanti) (it is also claimed that this tribe was Thracian)[7]
- Paeoplae[8]
- Siropaiones[9]
- (?) Phrygians (Armeno-Phrygians? Part of the larger and older Graeco-Phrygians?)
- Hellenics
Armeno-Phrygians
May have been part of the older and larger Graeco-Phrygians.
- Armeno-Phrygians (Bryges-Phryges-Mushki) (Armeno-Phrygian speakers)
- Bryges (Bryges, Mygdones and Pieres) (Haemus Mons or Balkan Phrygians)
- Bryges Proper
- Mygdones (in Mygdonia)
- Pieres (originally in Pieria, later in Pieris)
- Mushki (Mysians, Phrygians and Proto-Armenians) (Asia Minor Phrygians) (they may have entered Asia Minor in the Bronze Age collapse and also migrated eastward to Eastern Anatolia (Eastern Asia Minor); Eastern Mushki may have been identical with Eastern Phrygians and they possibly blended with older local populations and formed Proto-Armenians)[10][11][12] Other scholars, such as Aram Kossian have a different view and consider a native origin for the Eastern Mushki.[13]
- Western Mushki (Mysians and Phrygians)
- Mysians (Mushki) (Coastal Phrygians) (they lived in Mysia)
- Phrygians (Inland Phrygians) (they lived in Phrygia)
- Eastern Mushki (Moschoi / Moscheni / Meshech) (Proto-Armenians?)
- Meskhi (a Mushki tribe that lived in Moschia or Meskheti, assimilated by the Proto-Kartvelians?) (ancestors of most of the Meskhetians)
- Proto-Armenians (descendants of an eastward Phrygian migration - Mushki according to some scholars,[14] or from an early native origin, Eastern Mushki may have been a people of different origin from the Western Mushki, according to other scholars)[15]
- Ancient Armenians (Hayer)
- Ancient Armenian tribes
- Ancient Armenian Clans
- Ancient Armenian tribes
- Ancient Armenians (Hayer)
- Western Mushki (Mysians and Phrygians)
- Bryges (Bryges, Mygdones and Pieres) (Haemus Mons or Balkan Phrygians)
Possible Armenian peoples or contributors to the Armenians’ ethnogenesis
- Hayasa-Azzians (in Hayasa-Azzi, roughly in later Upper Armenia) (the name “Hayasa” may have been an early form of “Hayer” - Armenians)
- Nairi / Nihriya (a tribal confederation in the Armenian Highlands)
- Subartians / Shuprians / Armanians (in Subartu and Arme-Shupria, Arme or Armani and Shupria)
Armenians, Hurro-Urartians or Kartvelians
Contributors to the Armenians’ ethnogenesis (Non-Armenian in origin)
- Hurro-Urartians (peoples speakers of the Hurro-Urartian languages)
- Hurrians
- Hurri-Mitanni (a possibly Indo-Aryan Indo-European people was the founder or one of the founders of the Kingdom of Mitanni, they spoke the possible Mitanni-Aryan language, they blended with older local Hurrians)
- Urartians (founders of the Kingdom of Urartu; Proto-Armenians may have been part of the population of this kingdom since earlier times, well before its fall at the end of the 7th century BC.)[16][17][18]
