THE EARLY AGE OF GREECE VOL.I by W.Ridgeway 1901
MACEDONIA is GREECE and will always be GREECE- (if they are desperate to steal a name, Monkeydonkeys suits them just fine) ΚΑΤΩ Η ΣΥΓΚΥΒΕΡΝΗΣΗ ΤΩΝ ΠΡΟΔΟΤΩΝ!!! Strabo – “Geography” “There remain of Europe, first, Macedonia and the parts of Thrace that are contiguous to it and extend as far as Byzantium; secondly, Greece; and thirdly, the islands that are close by. Macedonia, of course, is a part of Greece, yet now, since I am following the nature and shape of the places geographically, I have decided to classify it apart from the rest of Greece and to join it with that part of Thrace which borders on it and extends as far as the mouth of the Euxine and the Propontis. Then, a little further on, Strabo mentions Cypsela and the Hebrus River, and also describes a sort of parallelogram in which the whole of Macedonia lies.” (Strab. 7.fragments.9) ΚΚΕ, ΚΝΕ, ΟΝΝΕΔ, ΑΓΟΡΑ,ΕΚΚΛΗΣΙΑ,ΝΕΑ,ΦΩΝΗ,ΦΕΚ,ΝΟΜΟΣ,LIFO,MACEDONIA, ALEXANDER, GREECE,IKEA

Strabo – “Geography”
“There remain of Europe, first, Macedonia and the parts of Thrace that are contiguous to it and extend as far as Byzantium; secondly, Greece; and thirdly, the islands that are close by. Macedonia, of course, is a part of Greece, yet now, since I am following the nature and shape of the places geographically, I have decided to classify it apart from the rest of Greece and to join it with that part of Thrace which borders on it and extends as far as the mouth of the Euxine and the Propontis.

IRON. 613<br />
in which the Celts had long been domiciled at the dawn of<br />
history.<br />
When therefore we see that the fair-haired people of central<br />
Europe had spread into the lower parts of the continent and<br />
into Asia from Noricura (p. 390) and that their fine long swords<br />
over their<br />
of iron or steel gave them the same superiority<br />
antagonists that the modern rifle has over the old musket, and<br />
when we further consider that the Acheans of Homer are<br />
especially supplied with this metal and that they use long<br />
cutting swords, as did the Celts in historical times, the natural<br />
inference is that they brought the iron with them.<br />
Whence otherwise could this iron come at a jump into<br />
Greece at the same time that the Acheans first appear on the<br />
horizon ? Some will at once say that Egypt was its source, for<br />
the Egyptians have been credited with possessing a knowledge<br />
of this metal from 3500 B.C.<br />
Lepsius thought that he traced<br />
iron under the name of men in the oldest Egyptian inscriptions,<br />
and that he coidd recognize<br />
it in pictures <strong>by</strong><br />
its bluish tint as<br />
empl(jyed in the earliest times for vessels and weapons. But<br />
it is admitted <strong>by</strong> those who believe in its very early use in<br />
Egypt that copper was pi'ior to iron, as the word for iron has<br />
the sign for copper as its determinative'. Eut the historical<br />
and archaeological evidence makes it clear not only that<br />
coppei- long preceded iron in Egypt, but also that the latter<br />
came into use in that countiy at a I'elatively late period.<br />
Agatharchides- states that in his own day (about B.C. 100)<br />
