It is just plain ridiculous to think that the Slavic inhabitants of FYROM are the direct descendants of ancient Macedonians. As far as I know Tito renamed Macedonia because of his admiration to Alexander the Great, and all the FYROMian rewritting of history just came in the last few decades as the documentary says.

Anyone can imagine Alexander speking a language that was only brought to the Balkans hundreds of years later after his death?

However, I wouldn't deny that most FYROMians do actually have some Macedonian ancestry, mixed up with Slavic and Turko-Bulgar blood. Many of them will probably descend from Slavicied Macedonians.

The most direct descendants of the ancient Macedonians are in any case the current Hellenes from the Greek province of Macedonia, that is, modern Macedonians.

It would be interesting to see a genetic study comparing FYROMian Y-Chromosome and mtDNA haplogroups from those from Greek Macedonia.
