DIMITRIOS – TZEHM IN MANOS

It is surprising because these archaeological findings are not known not only to the general public, But even in many archaeologists. A my known historian said that “There is nothing for which they hadn't been spoken or discovered first the ancient Greeks”. The contribution of ancient Greece is huge in building Western civilization and the expression of Greco-Roman culture reduces a little the contribution of ancient Greek civilization that the Romans copied (spoiled). Don't forget that and down Italy and Sicily were colonized first by the Greeks.

In the Renaissance, but and the enlightenment, the ancient Greek goods constituted a source of inspiration in all areas of culture, from art (Renaissance) as philosophy, the sciences, the arts and letters. Maybe today there is envy for the ancient civilization where ushered in democracy, of theatre, of art, of Sciences (Let's remember the Democritus who discovered the person!), of philosophy, of sport (Olympics) and generally all those who today take for granted. Besides the repelling of the Persians (but the Turks in modern history) has huge importance and Europe would be different today if they had knocked out the Persians (the Turks and Ottomans). It is no coincidence the emblem of the Acropolis with Parthenon of Athens as a UNESCO World Heritage symbol.

That today foreign scholars spit bile saying that the ancient Greeks were gay offends them because first of all the ancients were bisexuals (like all ancient peoples), but the celibacy was disgraceful. Secondly, I do not understand what evil exists and what reproach if indeed he was gay. And what was; Stress that Alexander the great was homosexual, Although historical data is incomplete, We had several women at his side (as Roxanne). Ditto say for Achilles with patroclos, Although it was mythical persons (or maybe not; We will see below). At The Same Time, There are many generalizations of style Alexander was butcher, Although in fact ekpolitise the entire South-Western Asia and Egypt who later brought Islam to primitive levels. Also saved Europe from the Persians.

At The Same Time, in the History Channel documentary accentuated the Roman supply e.g.. on martial tactics, weapons and structures (though indeed invented the cement), but in fact the ancient Greeks were the ones who first developed the above martial tactics (e.g.. Sacred Band of Thebes, the Macedonian sarissa, siege engines) and constructions (from bridges and aqueducts as high-rise buildings and even prehistoric as in Santorini) and generally they developed all the sciences, Arts and letters.

Nevertheless, the same Hollywood often has as its theme the ancient Greece as in recent films Troy, Helen of Troy, Alexander, Argonauts, Hercules etc. At The Same Time, March 2007 Warner Brothers launched the movie “300” referred to in 300 Spartans of Leonidas who fought the Persians at Thermopylae. The movie, filmed entirely in the Studio, presents fairly heroic Spartans fighting almost naked, Finally escaping from the pseydopoyritanismo, Although in reality the ancients had armor, Greaves etc. The film is perhaps not just remake of old film (that was filmed in Greece: in Lake Vouliagmeni in Loutraki), but is associated with the impending u.s. attack on Iran (Persia). But again, stresses the contribution of the Greeks to repel the Persians and the protection of Europe.

Apart from the Persian wars which describes very nice Herodotus (the father of history) the ancient Greek literature has plenty to showcase. Well known is the Trojan war described in Homer's Iliad. This text has inspired generations – generations and even today have filmed movies (recently the “Troy”with Brad Pitt) with this topic. However, based on the story of the Trojan war in facts;

Analyzing the text this archaeological evidence about whether it was true the Trojan war or not, We will start from the German capital. In Berlin there are written references to the Trojan war. There is a file with letters to Agamemnon. As mentioned in the Iliad, Agamemnon, King of the Greek city of Mycenae, head large campaign came on against Troy (City of Asia minor, near the Dardanelles) that had to be punished for the snatching of the Greek Queen Helen of the Trojan King Parry. Agamemnon had allies from all over Greece and the Islands. After ten years siege Troy fell. Can the above love story it was cause war between superpowers of antiquity;

In the 13th century b.c.. There were large Empires in the Near East: the Babylonians (now in decline), the Assyrians, the Egyptians and the Hittites in present-day Turkey (M. Asia) that their sovereignty was up the Aegean. The bronze age capital of the Empire of the Hittites were the Chattoyses (Hattusas). In the 13th century b.c.. It was one of the largest cities with temples (Chief God was God of the storm), residences and a large Palace. Under Boghazkou (200 miles east of Ankara) was a breakthrough: a diplomatic archive written on clay tablets. Found 7 files in Boghazkou and the 1983 found a file Temple. The last traces of fire that devastated the region in 1180 e.g.. It is noted that the Hittites from the Assyrian people have fallen.

The 1906 German archaeologists have found 2500 clay tablets with cuneiform writing in Boghazkou. It was the chettaϊkoy Foreign Ministry files during the period was the Trojan war. The plates were transferred to Berlin and apokwdikopoiithikan after the first World War. In the Pergamon Museum emlich Forer, a Swiss engineer, He worked in the translation of the plates where he discovered names familiar from Homer, with repeated references to Troy, the Atreus (his father Agamemnon), Alexander (Homeric name of Paris) etc. Billboards recognize rather Greece as an important State.

In parallel with the kingdoms of the Middle East, that proanaferthisan above, There were polychryses Mycenae of Sliman was the richest Kingdom of Greece. At Mycenae had ruled a great King, Agamemnon, and this is probably the Chettaios Emperor had called in a letter “brother” and “equal”. In the 1950 's 1930 Forer's theory was rejected by the academic community. Though, the Greeks were in chettaϊka texts and the myth of the Trojan war is based on real events that recorded the Chettaios Emperor Chattoysilis the 3rd.

After decoding of linear writing texts II the 1952, We know that the Greeks the bronze age had diplomatic relations with Egypt. At Thebes, Egypt (current Karnak) There were commercial exchanges with Cretans and Greeks. Egyptian diplomats, as has been found in Egyptian inscriptions, they knew the Greek cities, notably Mycenae.

When Homer, Agamemnon was a great King of mainland Greece and islands such as Crete and Rhodes. This (that was a great King) recorded by the chettaϊko Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Homer calls the Greek Achaeans. The Hittites, in their inscriptions, refer to a powerful Kingdom in the West the: the Achiaba, meaning obviously the achaeans (Greeks). For that was the Achiaba (to which the chettaϊkes inscriptions) There are theories as that was in Thrace and Anatolia or Rhodes or mainland Greece (based in Mycenae). The Achiaba, indicate the chettaϊkes inscriptions, was a sea state with wide-ranging contacts and relationships with the Hittites sometimes friendly and sometimes hostile. The Governor of Achiaba (Greece;) referred to as “Great King” (Agamemnon;).

There is chettaϊki inscription describing a treaty between the Hittites and the Syrian State Amoyroy which was compiled for the Emperor Toyntchalis the 4th (son of Chattoysilis), After the Trojan war (12century BC). There the Toyntchalis naming the kings who were in the same category with him: the Kings of Egypt, of Babylon, of Assyria and finally the King of Achiaba. Though the inscription the word “Achiaba” It was diegrammeni and that means the King of Achiaba was no longer in the same category as other Kings or that the terms of the Treaty did not refer to him. Nevertheless, Some researchers take these findings from Greece and Agamemnon.

However, There is a large Kingdom in the West of the Hittites involved militarily and diplomatically with them and maintains trade relations with Syria and other States. And even called Achiaba. The description matches the achaeans (Greeks), Although there are archaeologists who compare the fact that there was no large Mycenaean rule, but many small fighting between them. Besides the ancient Greece was not a unitary State, but a patchwork of towns – States often fighting among themselves, but unite when they had to face a common enemy (Persians). Nevertheless, these archaeologists do not warrant a reference of the Chettaioy Emperor Chattoysilis of the 3rd he calls in his letter the King of Achiaba “brother”. Was the King of Achiaba Agamemnon, the King of Mycenae and Commander in Chief of the achaeans; Some scholars oppose again that even in Homer's Iliad Agamemnon played second fiddle in front of Achilles, the King of the Myrmidons.

Archaeological evidence confirms the presence of the Greeks in Asia minor, on the outskirts of the State of the Hittites. Greek vases found in 30 areas. In linear II listed 6 toponyms from I where the Greeks took Asian girls Drudge, While in 3 parts of southwestern Turkey, found evidence that inhabiting Greeks with main area of Miletus (We always talk about the bronze age). Miletus was then wall and Palace and into a graveyard of found objects imported from Mycenae. Miletus was a Mycenaean colony or a meeting of many neighbouring peoples area. In linear writing II signs the Miletus as import Asiatiswn area slaves by Greek rulers.

Though, When the Foreign Ministry chettaϊko, There was a city on the western coast of Asia minor who was under the control of Achiaba (The Achaeans – Greeks;) and it was called “Milabanta” and later “Milabata”. There was great conflict between the Hittites and the Achiaba city Milabanta. Miletus was the Milabanta; If Yes, then the Achiaba is the mainland Greece. Chettaϊkes signs described in copy of the letter of Emperor Chattoysilis of the 3rd Chettaioy to the King of Achiaba, with no names, around 1250 e.g., the era of the Trojan war. It is known as letter “Tabakalaba” and refers to a villainous named Piamaranto who was rather pushy Royal descent with action off the West Anatolia (in Asia minor) and they came into conflict with the Achiaba (Greece;) and with his brother: King of the Greeks (called by the Hittites as) Tabakalaba.

The Piamarantos their tromokratoyse allies of the Hittites to the West. Focus of discord was the city Milabanta or Milabata on the western coast of Asia minor who was under the control of Achiaba (Greeks;). The King of Hittites Chattoysilis the 3rd, to clarify things, wrote a letter to the King of Achiaba where he mentions the places passed traveling West, by which we recognize the capital of the Hittites: Chattoyses (Hattusas). Around 1250 e.g.. the Chattoysilis, starting from the capital of the Hittite Chattoyses, began the westward. In a week arrived in town Sallaba (current Sivrihisar, 100 miles west of Ankara in Turkey;). There the son brought non-reconciliation with the message Piamaranto. After the Chattoysilis reached the chettaϊko fortress Hapanuba (Afion) and from there went to Troy or Smyrna or on the coast opposite the island of Kos.

The Chattoysilis asked for help from the people of Lucca, the people who resided in Lycia in Asia minor (current Lysia) and who made raids in various regions, including Cyprus. The rather twisted Chattoysilis South Vilivanda city (Alabanda) and probably continued arriving at the Iyalanda fortress which was attacked by strikers folks whom eventually defeated. In the same city (as Alinda) There are earlier fortifications. There the Chattoysilis sent a letter to the King of Achiaba (Greece;) saying that: “We ran out of water and left their froyroymenoys 7000 captives whom, though, got the Piamarantos. When my brother's emissary, didn't bring friendly greetings and gift (as is customary) from thee, but that instructed the Governor of Milabanta to deliver the Piamaranto.”

The Chattoysilis probably got course Northwest towards the sea, parallel to today's Lake BAFA nature reserve which the bronze Bay formed. The mouth of the Maeander River was a large Bay where stood the city Milabanta (Miletus;). The Chattoysilis found reaching the Milabanta that the Piamarantos was gone and that the great King (Agamemnon;) did not allow him to capture the Piamaranto.

The dominance of Hittites in the West of Asia minor was unstable. Troy is located on the Strait of the Dardanelles in northwestern Turkey and there were originally excavated by the Germans Sliman and Nterkfelnt and the American Blegen. The Nterkfelnt discovered Troy No. 6 which was the capital of a Kingdom that had trade relations with Mycenae and destroyed at the time of Chattoysilis by earthquake or war. The Homeric Troy was probably Troy No. 7 (a). Homer mentions Troy as Ilion. The inscriptions there indicate as Taruisa and Wilusia. The era of the Trojan war, When the Emperor Chattoysilis the 3rd Chettaio, in Wilusia the Hittites came into conflict with the army of Achiaba (Greeks;). It was finally the Wilusia Troy;

The British Museum Store Treaty between the King of Wilusia and his brother Chattoysilis, Maybe the era of the Trojan war. The Chattoysilis asks for help from the Western ally. The Egyptians knew that the allies of the Hittites belonged and the people named Dardanoi, name that gives Homer the Trojans! The condition is referred to as Prince of Wilusia Alexander, name that gives Homer in Paris, Prince of Bilioy of Troy and her lover Greek Queen Helen (wife of King Menelaos of Sparta, his brother Agamemnon) which grabbed and was the occasion of the siege of Troy by the Greeks. Eventually the Wilusia ruined. Was the destruction of Troy or another city; It was the Chettaios ally Paris;

In the chettaϊko file which is preserved in the Museum of Berlin we conclude that just before climbing the Chattoysili of the 3rd on the throne of the Hittite 1263 e.g.. some in the Western protectorates of Hittites ceased to declare allegiance, based on the great King of Achiaba (Greece;). The Wilusia (probably the Troy) He was faithful to the Hittites. So, was attacked and destroyed by the Greeks. The 1982 discovered piece inscription that tie with his letter of 4th Toyntchalis, son of Chattoysilis. Refers to the space 1220 – 1230 e.g.. (After the Trojan war) . The inscription says that Alexander (Parris;), Prince of Wilusia (Troy;), had died and that the position of the Hittites laid a kiss on those adjoining the name Balmoy which later ekthronisane. The area of Wilusia (Troy;) was attacked and the Hittites soldiers moved west.

Was the city Wilusia, He remained faithful to the Hittites, Troy; The Hittites will recognize that the site Milabanta (Miletus;) It was under the sphere of influence of Achiaba (Greeks;). Though the kingdoms of Wilusia and Arzabas was in the sphere of influence of the Hittites. The crisis probably peaked between 2 era's superpowers. Was Troy No. 6 – with fine walls (I have uphill slope which describes and Homer) – or Troy No. 7A – with the parapigmata – the Homeric Troy; After Troy fell by Greeks or by Hittites; And what Troy; Me personally the whole story causes me a lot of questions. Worth to mention that I feel Agamemnon literally something like my ancestor, Since the origin of my family is from Mycenae and my last name is ancient (“manos” means sparse, Hence the Mani that has sparse vegetation, If and when other “manos” is he EC Manis). In my room I have to frame photo Golden funeral mask found in a tomb at Mycenae and attributed (Maybe wrong by Sliman) in Agamemnon.

GENIKOTERA INFORMATION ABOUT TROIA, THE ACHAIOYS AND THE TRANSMISSION OF GREEK CULTURE

It is worth mentioning that the Greek mythology provides many components for the transmission of Greek culture. In ancient Greek tradition is known the epics of Homer: Iliad and Odyssey, as well as various stories about the fate of the achaeans (tribe of ancient Greeks) heroes who participated in the Trojan war. One example was the King of Argos, Diomedes, son of the King of Aetolia, Tydea. In the Trojan war, Diomedes was involved with 80 ships (!) and it was the most valorous hero, After Achilles. Diomedes after the Trojan war returned to Argos. Though, betrayed by his wife, forced to leave his homeland and to leave with his comrades in Italy, in the Greek colony of Puglia where he became King. Apulia is a region in southwestern Italy. In ancient times in Apulia there were many Greek colonies and even today in many villages of the area residents speak Greek with a local idiom! In Puglia the Diomedes duel Aeneas encountered in.

Was a mythical hero Aeneas of Troy and 2nd largest after the Trojan hero Hector. After the kyrieysi of Troy by the achaeans, the Aeneas – According to tradition – He fled with his companions in Lazio, a region of Central Italy in which later built Rome. I.e. the Aeneas was the mythical and perhaps the real progenitor of the Romans and the founder of Rome. The Romans mention as founders of Rome the Rwmo or Romulus and Remus who like Tarzan the galoychise a Wolf! The Romans also had another legend that mentions that Rome was founded by the Sabinoys, an ancient people of Central Italy (Lazio) they resided near Rome. Obviously Roman myths are fictional and were created by the envy of the Romans who didn't want to admit that their country colonized first by the Greeks. That's because Aeneas was a Greek, After the Trojans were in fact Greeks!!! Nobody says that Troy was a Greek colony in the Troad region m. Asia! The Greeks called Troy: Ilion. The name Ilion comes from the King of Troy ilo who was son of Ilus and Kallirrois and grandfather of Priam. Priam was the son of King Laomedon of Troy, and was King of Troy during the Trojan war. He was killed by Achilles's son Astyanax.

Troy was founded by the mythical hero (the mythic doesn't always mean fantastic) Dardano of Thrace. From this the colony received its original name Dardania or Dardanus. However, the Dardanus, historical, was a colony of the Greek tribe of Aiolewn who descended from the cannon in the 21st century BC. By Dardano comes and the name of the Dardanelles (List Of Bleach Episodes). According to archaeological studies, the establishment of Troy dating 3200 e.g.. So, This reinforces the view that the Greeks had their settlements very early launch areas. Troy was named after the King of the Trojan. The son of Ilus and nymph Kallirrois was the Ganymidis, brother of the King of Troy, Group (see. before). Ganymede was the most beautiful new land which fell in love with Zeus and transformed to Eagle the kidnapped to Olympus where he welcomes you (He nectar) of the gods!!! Eventually, Zeus transformed him into a constellation which now call Aquarius. Ganymede is named and the satellite of Jupiter. But the Trojans made group of asteroids that are affected by the pull of the Dia!

Returning to Troy, It was a prosperous Greek colony that had developed the maritime trade. He had trade relations with Mycenae from the 13th century b.c.. In the middle of this century was and the war Allied Greek cities with the Trojans. General, wars between Greek cities was accustomed. The leader of the achaeans in the Trojan war Agamemnon was who was the brother of the King of Sparta, Menelaos [ see. Notes the (84) ] whose woman kidnapped from Sparta Paris (84), giving rise to the Trojan war. Agamemnon is probably a real person – King of Mycenae – who lived space 1200 – 1150 e.g.. (at Mycenae has found funeral mask attributed to Agamemnon). Participated in the Trojan war and King of magnesia (an ancient city in Thessaly) Philoctetes, who after the fall of Troy went to Italy where he founded many cities!!! Behind the myth that distinguished the colonization of Italy by the Greeks that began in the 13th century b.c.. and perhaps more before.

On this occasion Philoctetes was the one who killed Paris with one of the poisoned arrows had given Heracles. The Trojan war was a real event that was probably the 1250 e.g.. among the Greeks (The Achaeans) and Trojans, in Ilion (Troy). In mythology, in Sicily and Daedalus arrived with his wings (glider type) from Crete. It should be noted that there was a developed civilization in Crete by the 2800 e.g.. (age of bronze), maybe even more before. Sicily is perhaps the island of the Cyclops describing Homer's Odyssey. In this work reflected the explorations and the establishment of colonies by the ancient Greeks in the Mediterranean (Under Italy, Northern Africa) in the 13th century BC.. The difficulties at explorations himself reflects Trojan war. Behind the various stories and myths, revealed the fact that very early the ancient Greeks had founded colonies and were visited mainly coastal areas of the Mediterranean (M. Asia, Italy, Spain, France and North Africa), and of the Black Sea. The ancient Greeks called it “Hesperia” the Italy and Spain. These stories show, well, that the ancient Greeks had conquered the world as early as the 13th century BC., Although the author believes that they did before, the 3000 e.g.. ! Following, the colonization that will be reported as “second colonization” and will be placed in the 8th century BC., is the “official” colonization of the Greeks. In fact it started maybe 22 centuries before!!!

Before the 2000 e.g.. the Greeks were called “Pelasgians” and the Islanders “Aigaioi”. Known by the 3000 e.g.. (age of bronze) was the cycladic and Minoan (kritikos) culture. However, the oldest Greek civilization began. Archaeological excavations discovered developed culture in the Neolithic age (6000 – 2800 e.g.) in many Greek settlements, as for Apple's example. Oldest, though, Archaeological findings date back to Palaeolithic times (700000 – 8500 e.g.), with oldest find the world-famous “man of petralona” found in the cave of petralona in CHALKIDIKI. It was a skeleton of a man around 30 – 35 years (old at the time of) who lived approximately 600000 e.g.. (Although there are disagreements about the precise dating of the skeleton and whether indeed belongs to the man of Neanderthal considered isolated species from modern “man wise”). Also, the cave Fragchthi of Andhra Pradesh found human remains that date back approximately 17000 e.g.. the end of the Paleolithic era, and specifically in the last phase of “Boyrmias period” that is the last period of glaciation.

In and around Gytheion Mani found skull dating back to 150000 e.g.. Paleolithic artifacts found elsewhere such as tools on the banks of the river Pinios River louros and dating between 50000 – 35000 e.g.. A major finding is ripping “axe of Siatista” that belongs to the 100000 e.g.. Siatista Kozani Prefecture city is. Paleolithic artifacts found in ancient Thessalian city of Feres.

The above shows that Greece was inhabited by the 700000 e.g.. (beginning of the Paleolithic era) and recorded matter developed from culture 3000 e.g.. (the beginning of the bronze age) in Crete and the Cyclades. The Greeks since the Neolithic times they used weapons and tools.

From the Division of Indo-European populations arose omoethnias moved across Europe and Asia (Celts, Latinos, Medes, Persians, Indians, Prwtoellines). Later in Greece came from the North and the achaeans who created the Mycenaean (ysteroelladiko) culture (1600 – 1000 e.g.). General, fall of Indoeyrwpaiwn – Prwtoellinwn was accompanied by the transfer of their culture as their pottery type Kurgan graves (lakoeideis) etc. Was Accompanied, though, and with conflicts such as the destruction of Argissa of Lerna and the 21st century b.c.. Also, the achaeans have gone into occupation of Crete 1450 e.g., taking advantage of the island's destruction by earthquakes and by the great eruption of Santorini, which created enormous tidal waves. In the 15th century BC. the achaeans invaded and Cyprus which was in the hands of many – non-Greek – conquistadores, before you understand the achaeans.

As mentioned in ancient Egyptian text, in the 15th century BC. the achaeans with their Tyrsinoys their Ssakalass helped (see. following, rather, residents of Greece or Greek island of m. Asia), the Lykioys (the Lycia was in m. Asia) and Ssardanoys, in their campaign against Egypt – in the reign of Meneftha. The above Nations landed in Libya and helped the King of Mermagioy to face Egypt. Eventually, they lost the battle of the generals of Meneftha. In ancient Egyptian texts listed, on King of Tuthmosis III II (blessing. 1448 e.g.), as residents of Greece the Danaoi (as “Danaoyna”) who called elsewhere Achaeans. In the 12th century BC. the Danaoi and Tyrsinoi, as mentioned in Egyptian text, rallied with Teykroys (Cypriots), the Lykioys and the Philistines (ancient people of Palestine) and battled against Egypt by land and sea, in the reign of Ramses II's c (1198 – 1166 e.g.). The Ramses II c II effectively rebuffed “people of the sea”.

In earlier Egyptian texts the achaeans are referred to as “Aigaiwasch” (Akaϊoybas) as most Egyptologists were rather the achaeans of Greece or of… Caucasus!!! The last mentioned why there is the theory that the achaeans arrived up the Caucasus and formed the population of Hai that is Armenians, Since Armenia is Chaϊestan!!! Besides, There is also a legend that says that some Achaeans after the Trojan war to the Caucasus apoplanithikan. Maybe it is random and myths initially reported (Prometheus, Hercules, Argonauts) and speaking for the Caucasus! The Hai is a corruption of the word Achaeans. However, the correlation of Danaon and on of the achaeans to the names “Danaoyna” and “Akaϊoybas” the Egyptian inscriptions are from many scholars arguably. With regard to the relationship of the achaeans with Egypt, It is no coincidence that in the Iliad and the Odyssey by Homer much talk on Phoenice and Egypt (Homer referred to even in the construction of the pyramids), which shows the cultural influence of the Greeks with these folks. Repeats that in the Iliad described the Trojan war that was probably the 1250 e.g..

The theory that Greek Danaoi were attacked in Egypt, According to the Egyptian texts, confirms and Greek mythology. In Greek mythology the founders Danaon was Danae (daughter of the King of ARGOS Akrisios which became Jupiter Perseus) or according to another tradition it was the Danaids. The Danaides were the 50 daughters of Danaos. Danaos was son of the King of Egypt and of Agchirois Biloy, daughter of the Nile (the Neileas was King of Egypt). The Belus was the son of Poseidon and Libya and twin brother of Agenor who was King of phoenice. The Agenor with Telephassa acquired Cadmus and Europe. The Cadmus was the founder of Thebes. Danaos in Europe (his cousin) aquired 50 Danaides.

Danaos had a twin brother named Egypt and was King of Egypt. The above names indicate the cultural relations of the ancient Greeks with the neighboring peoples. The Egypt had 50 sons of whom decided to marry with the 50 daughters of Danaos. Though, the Danaids did not want to marry the sons of Egypt and escaped with their father in Argos, where he gave them asylum, the King of the city, Pelasgus. Though, the 50 sons of Egypt arrived in Argos in order to get the Danaids. To avoid the war, the Pelasgus begged the Danaids to agree to marry them. The Danaids pretended that accept, but the same night of the wedding – with their father's order – they killed their husbands, except the Ypermistra which Danaida fled with his son Egypt, Lygkea. The rest were sentenced to hell to fill a bottomless pithari. The Danaides were the nymphs of fountains, in Greek mythology.

At the time of delivery after the Danaids exagnistikan syzygoktonia from Athena and Hermes and married Argeians (inhabitants of Argos). So, the Danaides were founders Danaon who, When Homer, were the inhabitants of Argos. Danaos was King of Argos and taught the locals the irrigation, the cultivation of land and the letters. The above legend confirms that the Danaoi arrived in Egypt, in the context of cultural knowledge and within war described by Egyptian texts. In the above mentioned the Danaoi texts and the achaeans. Though, the Danaoi were not only name of a neighbouring city, but generally the Achaeans (and when Homer if you remember the words of Laokownta – “Beware the Greeks even when they bring gifts and bearing”). Also, the name of the King of Argos, Pelasgus, It is no coincidence.

Homer mentions as Achaeans sympantes Greeks and especially the residents of an area in Fthiotida. It is recalled that the other 3 Basic Greek tribes were the Ionians, the Aeolians and dorians. Though, Homer does not mention the Aeolians. Also, as Ionians calls the Athenians, While the dorians – in the Odyssey – the places in Crete!!! Maybe, in a groundbreaking theory of the writer, Homer called Achaeans to the Pelasgians who initially dominated in Greece at the end of the 3rd millennium b.c.. The most likely, though, is called Achaeans sympantes Greeks, implying that the achaeans were the dominant Greek tribe. According to another view, Homer does not mention as Achaeans all Greeks, but the race of the achaeans who originally settled in Southern Thessaly, the Sterea Greece (Hence the placement of the Achaeans from Homer in Fthiotida) and in the Peloponnese.

Before mentioned that Pelasgians prevailed in Greece in the late 3rd millennium BC.. and predominated in Thessalia. Ancient people of Thessaly was the Dolopes, and who was also known pirates based in Skyros. However, It is worth noting that the ancient Thessaly came, upon delivery, EC of Epirus. I.e., There is a link of the inhabitants of the continent (see. before Dodóni) and the Pelasgians of Thessaly. The 1st Millennium b.c.. the Pelasgic Argos in Thessaly was called. But even in the Argos in the Peloponnese was reported above the city's King Pelasgus. The legend says that Pelasgus was the Danao city with 50 daughters of, the Danaids, When escaped from Egypt. The Danaids married Argeians and they were founders Danaon who was not only the inhabitants of Argos, but the achaeans in General. I.e., against the myth that, the Pelasgians preceded the Achaeans.

More likely is the Pelasgians being redesignated Greeks even when they bring, IE Achaeans. According to the historian Herodotus (18) as Pelasgians out (I, 56, 58) notably iones, Unlike the Greeks called with this name the dorians in the Peloponnese!!! Thucydides (4) mentions that the inhabitants of Aetolia omiloysan, mostly, an unknown language. And yet, in the Homeric years (in the 13th century) the Aitwleis were Greeks! The answer to the whole question is simple. The inhabitants of Greece before the 2000 e.g.. were the Pelasgians and Aigaioi. By the 21st century b.c.. downloaded in Greece, from the North, the prwtoellinikes tribes who belonged to the Aryan (Indo-European) clan.

In what, What concerns the Pelasgians, the descent in the 21st century BC. from the North of the Aryans tribes and later the Achaeans had as a result the Pelasgians eliminated or reduced in some areas such as Aetolia and in general the Sterea Greece and Thessaly. Besides, these areas were originally prevail the Pelasgians. So, According to this view interpreted and one of the theories of the writer referred to the fact that Homer puts the Achaeans in an area in Fthiotida, so perhaps refers to the Pelasgians. Homer, also, indicate the Myrmidons. They were residents of Thessaly with their leader Achilles. The name Fthiotida comes from the mythical hero Fthio who was the son of the Achaean, progenitor of the achaeans.

In antiquity the Fthiotida called “Fthiwtis Achaia”, because inhabiting the achaeans. The question is why Homer puts the Myrmidons in Thessaly and the achaeans in Phthia. The answer is that probably in the history of Homer included the Pelasgians who came to Greece in the 3rd millennium BC.. and the achaeans who came to Greece after the 19th century BC. So, Homer mixes facts about the prwtoellinikes tribes and refers to a period in which the achaeans were Greece and occupy the Pelasgians were curtailed in Thessaly and Central Greece. Can hardly give a clear position on the issue, Once in Thessaly and Central Greece initially dominated the Pelasgians, but in the same areas (and in the Peloponnese) settled down later and the achaeans!!! Therefore, the Myrmidons that Homer mentions maybe were Pelasgians, While the achaeans of Fthia referred rather hadn't compared with pelasgous. Can, though, and had! Everything is possible, After the Pelasgians were martial race like the achaeans.

Mythology gives its own position on the issue. Deucalion, described before as the survivor and the progenitor of the human race, He became the King of Fthia in Thessalia!!! His children were the Greek Deucalion, the Amfiktywnas (founder of amfiktioniwn) and Protogeneia. Hence the Greek from the mythology is placed in Thessalia and thus becomes a reference to the Pelasgians who dominated in Thessalia. The Greek with the nymph Orseis acquired Aeolus, the gift and the Xoytho. Aeolus was the headman of Aiolewn and dorus of the dorians. The Xuthus with Creusa acquired IONA and Achaeus, the founders of the achaeans and Ionians, respectively! The inhabitants of Argos and Grand achaeans referred to as Danaoi. Danaos, as stated above, He was the progenitor of the neighbouring city and father of Pit.

The Myrmidons referred to by Homer were inhabitants of Thessaly. In mythology, their origin was from Aegina (!) and their progenitor was Peleus who was the son of Eakos, the King of Aegina. His brother Pileas, Telamon, became King of Salamis. The Telamwn was the father of AJAX of Telamwnioy who took part in the Trojan war and founded the colony Tefkrou Salamis in Cyprus. The hero Achilles was the son of Peleus and Thetidos and was King of the Myrmidons with whom was campaigning in the Trojan war. His mother Thetis was – in mythology – Nereid. The Nereids, the calm sea deities, were the daughters of Nereus (son of the Earth and of the Sea) and Doridos (daughter of Oceanus). Here's matching Gift can be observed and Doridos and aligning them with the dorians who descended in the 11th century BC. in Greece. Peleus was the son of the King of Aegina, Eakos. Peleus was King of Fthia Thessaly which reigned and Deucalion!!! The heart friend of Achilles, Patroclus, He was son of Menoitioy and were by the Opoynta of Locris (area of the Thermopylae until the Lake Copais). Menoetius was the brother of Titan Prometheus (son of Iapetus who was son of heaven and Earth). The son of Prometheus was Deucalion, the progenitor of the human race!!! About Achilles, descended from the Royal lineage of the molossians. The area of ancient Greece “Molossis” It was located in the area occupied by the current Epirus and southern Albania that was the Greek North Epirus. In Northern Epirus was originally the Greek tribe of Paronaewn. The Molossis area was named after mythical King Molosso, who was the son of Neoptolemus and Andromache. The Kingdom of Epirus, Neoptolemus founded the. We do not have here a link to the Dodona in Epirus, which was extensive reference above;

So, everything in Greek mythology associated with each other, as well as with Greek history. Homer refers to the Trojan war, who was in the middle of the 13th century BC. (rather the 1250 e.g.) Though, It appears that Homer stirs – like the Greek mythology, but historians and writers of antiquity – the history of the emergence of tribal prwtoellinikwn that occurs without historical sequence. But for whom Homer once referenced there is the “Homeric question” about the real author of the Iliad and Odyssey and whether Homer was a real person ; It is strange a, upon delivery, blind man (even the name Homer means blind) to outlining historical facts and myths associated with the colonization of the Mediterranean, the voyages of the ancient Greeks and also lists a number of ethnological and folklore items. When the writer the two epics are compilations of traditions and historical events that have been alienated by the mythology. Besides, in these epics shows the same phenomenon in Greek mythology: various historical events (Greek tribes and regions, wars, founding the colonies) presented alienated, mixed and the myth has been tied inextricably with the historical reality…

Very early, the Greek cities – States founded numerous colonies in the wider Mediterranean region and the Middle. Asia in which metalampadeysan the virtues and ideals of Greek culture. The ancient Greeks always have the fireplace (the sacred fire) and the bones of their ancestors when their colonies set up trading. Also, transferred and their culture and developing the sciences, the arts and letters. From time immemorial the Greeks sailed – as Herodotus says: “in emporian and thewrian II”, i.e. for the trade and the exchange of material and spiritual goods with foreign peoples. The Greeks were masters of the seas. They had greater strength in commercial and later in Navy.

The ancient Greeks founded colonies throughout the Mediterranean, in the Black Sea (Black Sea) and in North Africa. The cities of Minoan Crete and the Cyclades were, already from the 3000 e.g., conquer the Mediterranean, long before the “official” settlements and are sure they had established colonies in the broader Mediterranean coast. The Cretans, as early as the second millennium BC., they had conquered the Eastern Mediterranean with their ships – before the Phoenicians – and had reached even in Egypt, in Lebanon, in Mesopotamia and other parts of Southwest Asia. E Also, There are Minoan (of ancient Crete) effects in Afghanistan!!! General, in Mesopotamia had expanded the Greek trade and in subsequent years. Mycenae in the second half of the 15th century were trade and trading posts and colonies in the western coast of m. Asia (for example in Cilicia – region of southeastern m. Asia), in Egypt, at syriopalaistiniakes shores, in southern Italy and Sicily.

It is certain that the ancient Greeks had extended, with the colonies, from the Caucasus, as Gibraltar and as Plato: “the colonies looked like frogs around a pond”. Indeed, the Pytheas from Marseille (Greek colony of Fwkaewn) at the end of the 4th century BC. passed Gibraltar (Hercules the ancient Greeks) by ship and then circumnavigated the England! Then sailed the “Thule” (was the Iceland or Norway) and then sailed to the Baltic and arrived on the island of Heligoland and at the mouth of the Elbe River in Germany and the Vistula River in Poland!!! The Pytheas charted the area and also measured the length of the coast of England!!! End, the ancient Greeks may have arrived to the shores of America.
