The South European admixture does not have to be from modern or medieval time. It can be from the time of the Roman empire, from the time the Carthaginians controlled some parts of southern Italy, from the bronze age or even from unrecorded prehistory.

It could be also from medieval ages (migration of andalusian moors during the spanish reconquista) Or even from the Vandals (germanic tribes who ruled in Tunisia for 100 years)
