“Hellenism” - the greatest mythology of them all!

How can we solve it? (keep it civilized)

Oh dear :shock: :shock:


Actually, Deniz, this is exactly what GR was afraid of, that's why he copied the images to a different host. There may not be many googlers more frequent than him, but there are a lot that are more efficient

In a few dozens years or maybe a century, Turkey will have all of Cyprus with all these Cypriot Cypriot idiots chopping at the bit. Turkey will never stop its hostility and these Get Real!, Bananiot's will never stop in their capitulations and treason, eventually the stars will align for a total Turkish invasion of the island.

Absolutely! I’m the BIGGEST traitor to both the Hellenisation and the Turkification of Cyprus. 8)


Fighting on two fronts, huh! :roll:

1. Modern Greeks are NOT the descendants of ancient Greeks period.


GR! is WRONG! :lol:


A striking demonstration of the persistence of the Greek genetic signature through time can be found in [1].

The figure on the right is the 4th principal component of variation in Europe and shows a strong cline centered in Greece. Not only is the Greek genetic legacy clearly detectible today, but it is detectible among not only the Greeks, but all their neighboring populations of partial Greek ancestry:

Figure 2. Hidden patterns in the geography of Europe shown by the first five principal components, explaining respectively 28%, 22%, 11%, 7%, and 5% of the total genetic variation for 95 classical polymorphisms (1, 13, 14). The first component is almost superimposable to the archaeological dates of the spread of farming from the Middle East between 10,000 and 6,000 years ago. The second principal component parallels a probable spread of Uralic people and/or languages to the northeast of Europe. The third is very similar to the spread of pastoral nomads (and their successors) who domesticated the horse in the steppe towards the end of the farming expansion, and are believed by some archaeologists and linguists to have spread most Indo-European languages to Europe. The fourth is strongly reminiscent of Greek colonization in the first millennium B.C. The fifth corresponds to the progressive retreat of the boundary of the Basque language. Basques have retained, in addition to their language, believed to be descended from an original language spoken in Europe, some of their original genetic characteristics.

The genetic affinities of human populations can be determined by examining large numbers of polymorphisms. For example, Ayub et al. [2] used 182 tri- and tetra-autosomal microsatellites, which allowed them to create the following tree based on DAS genetic distance between the sampled populations. It is clear that Greeks belong in the Caucasoid cluster of populations (encompassing groups from “North European” to “Burusho” in the figure), and are clearly distinguished from the Asian/Oceanian/American cluster (“Cambodian” to “Mayan Indian”), and even more from the African groups (“San” to “Zaire Pygmy').

Modern studies of autosomal DNA rely on the study of large numbers of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), i.e., of changes in a single letter of the genetic code. A recent study [3] used 10,000 such polymorphisms to investigate the genetic structure of European populations, including a sample of Greeks. Two different techniques were used: principal components analysis (PCA) , which find the most important dimensions summarizing the variability of the genetic data, and STRUCTURE a widely-used model-based clustering program, which assigns individuals to a number K of different clusters.

The results of the STRUCTURE runs are pictured below.

For each number of clusters (K), each cluster is assigned a color. Each individual from the studied populations corresponds to a vertical line, and consists in various proportions of the different clusters. We observe that the Greek individuals belong to the main European-West Asian-North African (Cluster) cluster for K up to 5. At K=6 a "Mediterranean" small cluster (green) emerges which encompasses particularly populations bordering the Mediterranean as well as Armenians. In particular, we observe that there is no visible contribution of the East Eurasian (Mongoloid) pink cluster or of Sub-Saharan African (Negroid) red cluster.

All the above from the most recent review ...

On point 2; Again GR! is Wrong! :lol:


1. Alexander’s great-great-great grandfather, Alexander I, was certified as Greek at Olympia.

2. Alexander’s father, Philip, won several equestrian victories at Olympia and Delphi (Plutarch, Alexander 4.9; Moralia 105A), the two most Hellenic of all the sanctuaries in ancient Greece where non-Greeks were not allowed to compete. If Philip was Greek, wasn’t his son also Greek?

2.When Euripides – who died and was buried in Macedonia (Thucydides apud Pal. Anth. 7.45; Pausanias 1.2.2; Diodorus Siculus 13.103) – wrote his play Archelaos in honor of the great-uncle of Alexander, did he write it in Slavic?

3. When he wrote the Bacchai while at the court of Archelaos did he not write it in Greek even as it has survived to us? Or should we imagine that Euripides was a “Macedonian” who wrote in Slavic (at a date when that language is not attested) which was translated into Greek?

4. What was the language of instruction when Aristotle taught Alexander?

5. What language was carried by Alexander with him on his expedition to the East?

6. Why do we have ancient inscriptions in Greek in settlements established by Alexander as far away as Afghanistan, and none in Slavic?

7. Why did Greek become the lingua franca in Alexander’s empire if he was actually a “Macedonian”?

8. Why was the New Testament written in Greek rather than Slavic?
