Yes, some valleys on the peninsula are so remote you can still encounter the occasional homo erectus
And even some Australopithecus, lmao.
Okay, stop. Otherwise I'll think most of population of the peninsula are made up of Neanderthals, Cromagnons, Homo Erectus and so on, and, therefore, some famous troll on this forum would be right on his Iberian bashing.

ha! Spain has nothing on the Caucasus mountains and their valleys! There are people there who swear they saw the child, generations ago, of a local Yeti/Bigfoot woman who "married" a local man. And as you probably know, Homo Erectus remains were found there, too.
You can find people who looks like very similar in some places in the north of spain. Specially in Cantabria, in "Valles Pasiegos"

The Guy looks typically Iberian but with light eyes. However the Early Europeans found have a genome similar to those living in Sweden and Finland. I don't think that Spaniard genome matches that of people in Scandinavia and Northern Europe. The guy looks ugly anyway!

Early europeans in Sweden and FInland? Have you ever heard about the last ice age? Where did you get that "information"?

No, those early humans from Spain are closer to modern people in Scandinavia than to modern people in Spain, that is what it said somewhere in one of those articles.
At one time, most of the Greek peninsula was speaking Slavic (most of the archaeology is Slavic in 7-8th centuries), Greek communities persisted only in some remote areas of Peloponnese and the peninsula was re-Greekifyied by Byzantium with Greek speaking peoples from Anatolia, who were of the most diverse origins: old Anatolians, Greekifyied Slavs previously colonized by Byzantium, Greekifyied / Hellenized Armenians, Thracians, Assyrians etc.
