@hellas.history: This is the only slideshow you will find on TikTok that actually deals with the origin of the ancient Macedonians through indisputable data. No fairytale novels of the 16th century, no pseudo-historical books of the 1800s, no ancient quotes taken out of context. But only archaeological data, linguistic evidence, literary evidence and confirmation by the best experts today in the field of the Ancient Macedonian studies. In this slideshow we debunk the following myths: - The myth of Greek absence from Macedonia during the Bronze Age - The myth of Greek absence from Macedonia during the Trojan War - The denial of the Doric migration in Macedonia - The denial of the Greek linguistic character of Macedonia - The myth of the "Hellenized Thracian Macedonians" Here is what archaeology, linguistics and ancient literature show about the ethnogenesis of the ancient Macedonians: Since Orestis of Upper Macedonia was formerly called Maketa/Maketia and the Dorians when they lived in Pindus were known as Makednoi, anyone can easily assume that the supposed "Argeadae" were nothing more than an Epirotic Doric tribe which, starting from northern Pindus and following the flow of the Haliacmon river (whose sources are in Orestis/Maketa), led the Makednoi/Maketai and found the Aeolian (and related to the Magnetes and the Perrhaebi) tribe that lived in Pieria and from the mixing of the two emerged the historical Macedonians who began to expand from the Macedonian mountain around 650 BC. Perhaps "Maketai" was the name of the original Epirote Doric gender, while "Macedones" was the name adopted to describe the new Greek tribe that resulted from the incorporation of the native Pierian Greek tribe. . . . . . . . . . . #fy #fyp #macedonia #macedoniantiktok🇲🇰 #makedonija
