Talking about ancient Hellas. Because "mythology is history of before today's genesis of Hellenes" ...ARISTOTELES. |
|
Makedon was son of Pandora ,daughter of Pelasgian couple Deukalion and Pyrphas.
Before 150,000,000 - 140,000,000 year
appeared the first land in the world from the sea. It was the
famous mountain of OLYMPOS. And then the rest mountains
Himalayas. This proved by geology today.
Before 9,000,000 - 11,000,000 year
(+1,000,000 or -1,000,000 years) ago had lived at the area of TRI'GLIA
in
CHALKIDIKI (MAKEDONI'A) the first standing and the oldest man in
the world. He was the famous Homo Erectus Trilliensis. He was
1,20 - 1,30 meters tall, and he used processed tools for hunting.
He is the oldest Homo Erectus Trilliensis in the world.
They have found bones of this man (by anthropologist ARIS POULIANOS)
and NASA dated.
Before 3,000,000 - 3,500,000 year ago
local people used tools for hunting. Poulianos(anthropologist)
has found in PTOLEMAI'DA (village Perdi'ka) an elephant, the Elephas
of Perdika. It was died by men who had been blinded by sharp processed
bones, and then had been broken the head of elephant (by strong tools).
The meat of elephas had been cutted also by stoned knifes (which found).
About 1,000,000 year is
age of the first human fire in the world. It found in cave of
Petralona (by anthropologist Aris Poulianos) over the 24th level.
It has been dated by the method of layer-surface (which is very
accurate). Also has been dated by the method of electronic turn-onrush.
Before 700,000 years (+-30,000 year)
had lived in PETRA'LONA of CHALKIDIKI another man the
archeanthropos
(ancient-man) of PETRA'LONA. He was Homo Sapiens, the ancestor of
present European (and all of human).
The origin of language of Hellenes (and European) and all the other languages
of world began from ancient-man of PETRA'LONA. He was using very
well tools, knew fire and language, has a whole community and was
working in distributed teams of work. Poulianos found all the body
and the head of Archeanthropos. The age of Archeanthropos was 32
years old (the normal age was 18-20 years, so he was very old).
In other words he had normal civilization.
So Hellenic place is the cradle of human being and not Africa!
About 5250 B.C is the first writing
which found in wooden-petrifed plate of DISPILIO (in lake of Kastoria).
It has been dated by nuclear labs of Dimocritus, using the method of
C-14. The writing it looks alike Linear A (the evolution of DISPILIO).
Founded also a stone with writing about 5230 B.C. The
writings were in prehistoric city of DISPILIO. Residents of DISPILIO
made bread, and had organized community. Community had 5000 people
and live in safe house next the lake, hunting, fishing, cultivated
their land, made weapons and tools from different materials
by stones "opsidianos" from the island Milos.
It proves they had contact from the sea and land quarries and trade.
In 2200-2100 B.C some
Hellenic races had returned to their's homeland and have settled
in North Pindos.
By the 8th century pleople of
EVIA from CHALKI'DA and HERE'TRIA builded new colonies in CHALKIDIKI,
and from now on it will has present name (CHALKIDIKI) from CHALKIDA.
Later on builded new colonies by MAKEDONI'A, ATHI'NE(ATHENS), KO'RINTHOS,
and island A'NDROS which gave a great development.
The founder of Makedonian country is
PERDI'KAS A' at the beginning of 7th century.
About 7th century B.C ORESTI'S
(today named KASTORIA') was the cradle of Makedonian dynasty of
ARGIA'DON and TIMENI'DON. Possibly from A'RGOS ORESTIKO' of south
KASTORIA' and not from A'RGOS in PELLOPO'NISOS. This proves that they
had the same ethniclanguage origin of Makedones(citizens of Makedonia)
and other Hellenic reces of south. It proves also "Makedonia was
and is only Hellenic".
Between 7th and 6th century,
Makedones moved eastern from ORESTIS or ORESTIADA and settled to
the area of PIERIA, VOTTIE'A (VE'RMIO today), EORDE'A (PTOLEMAI'DA)
and ALMOPI'A (ARIDE'A).
PERDI'KAS the A' or possibly king after PERDI'KA
built the new calital, AE'GES (means place where water well
up).
PERDI'KA's son ARGAE'OS 652-621 B.C
and the rest kings PHI'LIPPOS the A' 621-588 B.C and
AE'ROPOS 588-568 B.C stopped the attacks of Hillyrion.
King ALKE'TAS 568-540 B.C
and AMY'NTAS A' 540-498 B.C moved into the bountaries of
CHALKIDIKI.
ALE'XANDROS A' 498-454 B.C conquered
some other places. He was man who informed the south Hellenes for
Persean king's Xerxis plans in battle of PLATEO'N because he felt
Hellenas(Greek). He pushed by Xerxis to expeded by him against to
rest Hellenes.
By the Persean war, Xerxis king of Persia
builded at the peninsula of ATHOS one isthmus (480 B.C)
to avoided dangerous sailing around from ATHOS, and one possible
destruction like his general Mardonio (492 B.C). At the builded of
isthmus pushed local people to helped him giving him soldiers
ships for his war against the rest Hellenes of south HELLA'S.
But after his fleet defeat in SALAMI'NA, people of CHALKIDIKI revolted
with very bad results in O'LYNTHOS by general Artavazo.
The son of PERDI'KA the B' named ARCHE'LAOS the A'
413-399 B.C had very good relationships with ATHI'NE(ATHENS)
after war of SYRAKOU'SES-ATHI'NE. He separated his country in peripheral
cities for better commanding.
In 400 B.C ACHE'LAOS the
A' builded the capital of country call PE'LLA which had
short distance from the sea, and decorated it with great buildings.
He organized his army better than the previous kings. He called
EURIPI'DIS at his palace to write new plaies for theater. EURIPI'DIS
wrote "VA'KCHES" and "ARCHE'LAOS".
PHI'LIPPOS B' father of ALEXA'NDROU C'
(Alexander) the Great in 386-336 B.C was the
founder of the great single country of MAKEDONIA. He developed an
admirable strategy-economy-deplomacy with aim (for the first time)
to united all Hellas in one country and not in city-country.
In 349 B.C siege and catastrophe
of O'LYNTHOS city of CHALKIDIKI by PHI'LIPPOS B' because they did not
want to united in one ethnic country for all the Hellenes(greeks).
But ATHI'NE and THI'VA tried to resisted him
and in 338 B.C became the battle of HERO'NIA between
ATHI'NE - THI'VA and northern Hellenes(Makedones) where PHI'LIPPOS
B' won.
Also ALE'XANDROS the C' the Great at the age of 18years old figthed
on his father side as the commander of special soldiers of army.
In 336 B.C PHI'LIPPOS B' prepared
the united Hellenic expedition to Persean empire, murdered
by Persian king tring to stopped him.
His expedition followed by ALE'XANDROS C'
the Great and 334 B.C crossed HELLE'SPONTOS (DARDANELLES)
commanding of Hellenic corp counted 30000 infantry and 5000 cavalry.
Infantry included by 12000 Makedones who consisted the Makedonian
PHALANX. Another 12000 were the infantry and PELTASTE'S who came from
other Hellenic cities. The rest 6000 were light armed warriors with
javelins from Hellenic Thrakic race of ARIA'GNES(named today POMA'KI),
archers came from KRI'TI(Kreta) and PELTASTE'S came form TRA'KI(Thrace).
Cavalry contained Makedones special bodyguards of king named ETAI'ROI
numbered in 2000, 1800 from THESSALI'A and some troops of cavalry
from south Hellas-THRAKIC races (PE'ONES...) .
In 334 B.C became the 1st battle and
victory of ALE'XANDROS the C' the Great in river GRANIKO'S against king
of Persia Darius.
In 333 B.C became the 2nd battle and
victory of ALE'XANDROS the C' the Great in river ISSO'S against king of
Persia Darius.
About 332 B.C the siege and occupation
of city Tyros in Phiniki(Lebanon) by ALE'XANDROS the C' the Great.
In 331 B.C the 3rd battle and victory
of ALE'XANDROS the C' the Great in GAVGA'MILA against Darius.
In 326 B.C the battle and difficult
victory of ALE'XNDROS the C' the Great in river HYDA'SPIS(of India) against
India.
13 June of 323 B.C, ALEXANDROS the C' the Great
murdered in Babylon by Chaldeus(Jews controlled the
Persian religion) because they had been lost their power at the area.
This proves by books "ALE'XANDROS ANA'VASIS" of ARRIANO'S(ARRIAN) 2nd century A.C,
and by DIO'DOROS SIKELIO'TIS. Also PLOU'TARCHOS had written for the
murder.
In 315 B.C builded city of
THESSALONIKI by the king KA'SSANDROS (ex-general of
ALE'XANDROS the Great and husband of his sister) united 36 communities
around THE'RMAIKOS gulf.
Makedonia kept Hellenic for 200years with
local kings and resisted for 50years agains to Rome.
PHI'LIPPOS the E'197 B.C
lost the battle of KYNO'S KEFALE'S, and prepered for the next battle
died. And crowned his son(PERSEU'S) as king who continued the
preperation.
168 B.C in battle of PI'DNA,
PERSEUS the last king of united Hellas lost the battle by roman
general Aemilio Paulo and Makedonia and of course all Hellas
subjugated to romans. Most of treasures and important men moved in
Rome, and one of them PERSEUS as prisoner moved in Italy where
died.
In 3rd century A.C began
many incursions from Goths and other releted rases and repulsed
them without ethnological changes.
In 324 A.C the capital of Roman
empire moved in KONSTANTINOU'POLIS (in Byzantio) and it was the
beginning for a new development of Makedonia and especially of the
capital of Makedonia, the famous
Thessaloniki. Which became also the socond most important city
in Byzantioum Hellenic empire.
In 7th century we have the
first slavic races(Drogoubites, Strymonites, Sagoudates) arrives
called from Byzantioum Hellenic empire Sklabini. We have also many
battles around thessaloniki because they would like the control of
Makedonia.
In 688 A.C emperor IOUSTINIANO'S B'
won them and moved some of them in Bythinia (Aeolida,Troada) of
Asia.
Until 10th century we have
the first Fino-Tataric races (first Bulgarian races) which stopped in
north-east Makedonia and north Thraki. They mixed with Sklavini
races (Slaves) and made the first bulgarian country of king Samouil
(it is wrong we believe Bulgarians are slavic race). It was a
multiethnic country which tried to conquered KONSTANTINOU'POLI and
THESSALONIKI. It was also tried to changed the ethnological situation
of Makedonia.
In 905 A.C the cupture of
THESSALONIKI by Sarakini pirates.
In 11th century emperor
BASI'LIOS B' (called as Bulgarian killer) destroied the bulgarian
country.
In 1185 A.C the cupture of
THESSALONIKI by Normands.
From 1204-1246 A.C the Franks
occupation of THESSALONIKI.
In 14th century we have the
first organized Serbian country of Dusan. He also tried to
conquered THESSALONIKI without success.
In 1423 A.C emperor
ANDRO'NIKOS gave THESSALONIKI to Venice.
3 March in 1430 A.C(day of Wednesday)
THESSALONIKI cuptured by the Turks. The destruction and
slaughter of citizens written by IOA'NNIS ANAGNO'STIS.
The last 10 years of 18th century
Ali Pasas tried to extended his conquered in Makedonia. The greatest
problem was the famous (in Hellenes) ARMATOLI' of mountain Olympos.
In 1798 Ali Pasas occupied
the city of E'DESSA and from there he assaulted in all Makedonia.
In 1804 he occupied the
cities of NA'OUSA and VE'RIA, and then all Makedonia. Many people
fighted on the mountains agaist to Ali Pasa.
At the eve of Hellenic revolution in
1821 HEMMANOUI'L PAPA'S (one of the greatest bankers
in Europe who spent all
his property for revolution) revolt the citizens of CHALKIDIKI
by CHA'PSA from KASSA'NDRA. After organized expeditions of Turkish
army revolution suppressed because CHALKIDIKI is short distance from
THESSALONIKI, and the central Makedonia with center NA'OUSA revolted.
The commanders are LOGOTHE'TIS, GA'TSOS, and KARATA'SOS.
But it also suppressed.
In new indepedant country of HELLAS(GREECE)
1828 was not Makedonia. But citizens of Makedonia
continued their revolution without special results.
Revolution of 1854. It was started after
the Russian-Turkish of 1853 (known as Krimaic war). Turks afraid a
Hellenic(Greek) revolution sent soldiers in Makedonia and
Thessalia. English spies try to persuade people of Chalkidiki
do not revolt because England and France were responcible for
christians of Turkey. Probably the problem was Russia. Revolutioners
from south free Hellas(Greece) came (like Dimitrios Karatasos) to
Chalkidiki and especially in Sithonia. But Turks using theirs allies
destroied Hellenic fleet of Chalkidiki and after difficults fights
with Turks, revolution finished.
In 1870 with founded of independant
Bulgarian orthodox church known as EXARCHI'A, we have Hellenic-Bulgarian
confliction for prevail of Makedonia. The real reason was Bulgaria
tried to installed it's ethnic identity(extended plans) to slavic-idiom
citizens of central zone of Makedonia. This is the beginning of
"Makedonian problem" and first part Makedonian war.
In 1878 we have the revolution organized by
< On 20/7/1902 we have the
revolution
of I'LINTEN(religion celebration of prophet Hilias). It was a Bulgarian
plan where they would try to make an independant country "Makedonia"
revolted local people in Makedonia and using many guerrilla
army-corps named "Komitatzi'des". Revolution failed because Hellenes
of Makedonia would not coopperated with Bulgarian "Komitatzides".
Results were frightening for Hellenic population: over 22 villages
and 8000houses destroied, 50000 people staied without houses and
2000 died.
12 October 1904 died PAU'LOS
MELA'S at village STA'TISTA after betrayal of "Komitatzi" Mitro
Vlacho in Turks.
In 1904-1908 we have
Makedonian war between Hellenic local people and Bulgarians and Turks. Bulgarians
tried by pushed the local Hellenes citizens, especially Hellenes
who spoke slavic dialect, to change their ethnology(national) and
accept the Bulgarian ethnos(nation) without success. And that because
all Makedones citizens (Hellenes) with Hellenic and slavic language
fight to keep Makedonia Hellenic. Today the same people all the
world (N.A.T.O, U.N, E.U) try to accept as independant country
called "Makedonia" using slavic dialect(mix Bulgarian, Serbian,
Turkish, Hellenic words) as nation(ethnos). But it is not acceptable.
The 1st Balkan war in 1912.
The real reason was the hate of Balkan people
(Hellenes(Greeks)-Serbians-Maurovounio-Bulgarians) against to
Turks who behaved inhuman to enslaved people of Balkan for 400years.
Finally Balkan-allies won the Othoman Turkish empire having:
| Country | Infantry | Cavalry | Cannons |
|---|---|---|---|
| HELLAS | 90000 | 1000 | 280 |
| Maurovounio | 35000 | 0 | 130 |
| Serbia | 220000 | 5000 | 500 |
| Bulgaria | 294000 | 3000 | 620 |
| TOTAL allies | 645000 | 9000 | 1530 |
| enemy Turkey | 340000 | 6000 | 750 |
In 6th October 1912 HELLA'S won
Othoman empire(Turkey) on battle of ELASSO'NA.
9th October 1912 on battle
of SARANTAPO'ROU king KONSTANTI'NOS(HELLA'S) won for 2nd time the
Othomans(Turks).And he liberated KOZA'NI, SE'RVIA(area of KOZA'NI),
VE'RIA, NA'OUSA, E'DESSA, KATERI'NI.
19-20th October 1912 battle
of GIANNITSA' where Othomans lost the battle by HE'LLENES and
retreated to THESSALONIKI.
26th October in 1912(celebration day of
St. Dimitrios protector of the city) the liberation
THESSALONIKI by Hellenic army.
7th December 1912 liberated
the cities of FLO'RINA and KORITSA'(in North HI'PIROS).
17th June 1913 began the 2nd
Balkan war between allies HELLAS-Serbia and Bulgaria. And that
because they could not agreed with conquered lands of 1st Balkan
war. So Bulgaria occupied the cities of STRO'MNITSA, SIDIRO'KASTRO,
SE'RRES, DRA'MA.
19-21 June in 1913 we had the
battle of KILKI'S-LACHANA' in north Makedonia between HELLA'S and
Bulgaria. Where Hellenic army fight heroic and won written new pages
of history and wan the battle, liberated all Makedonia.
12-15 July 1913 after important
victories in KRE'SNA-TZOUMAGIA'. Although Hellenic Army liberated
the city of KAVA'LA. After the 2nd Balkan war Makedonia separated
in three parts:
| Country | square Km of land | Percentage |
|---|---|---|
| HELLAS | 34603 square Km | 51.57% |
| Yugoslavia | 25714 square Km | 38.32% |
| Bulgaria | 6789 square Km | 10.11% |
In 1st world war 1914-1918
we have primary front (for all European war) in Makedonia and many
French, English and Hellenes fight in Makedonia.
In 1941-1944 the German
occupation. But we had also a very hard occupation by Bulgarian
army.
