| | Greeks - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Greeks (Γραικοί) - In mythology, Graecus was the brother of Latinus and niece to Hellen. | | | Hellenes (Έλληνες) - In mythology, Hellen, son of Deucalion and Pyrrha, received from the nymph Orseis three sons, Aeolus, Dorus and Xuthus, each of which founded a primary tribe of Hellas; Aeolians, Dorians, Achaeans and Ionians. | | | Nevertheless, there has been, in practice, a continuous Greek identity since ancient times, containing at least those who chose to be Greek and who had citizenship in a Greek city, or membership of a Greek community. |

| | THE HISTORIES OF HERODOTUS (SELECTIONS) |
| | The Hellenes that awaited the Persians in that place were these: 300 Spartan armed men; 1,000 from Tegea and Mantinea, half from each place; 120 from Orkhomenos in Arcadia and 1,000 from the rest of Arcadia; that many Arcadians, 400 from Corinth, 200 from Phleious, and 80 Mykenaians. | | | Kandaules, whom the Hellenes call Myrsilos, was the turannos of Sardis and the descendant of Alkaios son of Herakles. | | | The Hellenes had summoned them by messengers who told them that this was only the advance guard, that the rest of the allies were expected any day now, and that the sea was being watched, with the Athenians and Aiginetans and all those enrolled in the fleet on guard. |

| | HELLENES |
| | The spread of the worship of Zeus in the rest of Greece (the basis of which was in Dodoni), the Dorian tendency to form amfictionies and the increasing popularity of the Delphic religion lead to the use of the name in a way that denoted the people that today is known as Greeks. | | | The name Hellenes, which by then had become a synonym of attachment to old religions, was replaced by the name Roman. | | | N.B. The present Greeks call themselves "Hellenes," and the king is termed "King of the Hellenes." The ancient Greeks called their country "Hellas;" it was the Romans who misnamed it "Græcia." |

| | Another grandson of Hellen 1 was Cretheus 1, king of Iolcus and father of Pheres 1, who reigned in Pherae and became father of Admetus 1, husband of Alcestis. | | | They are not misleading; and they are the words which, in the Greek language, the Hellenes themselves used to designate their civilization, their world, and themselves. | | | But in mythical times Hellenes were those who dwelt about Alope and Trachis, and held Phthia and Hellas (territories in Thessaly), land of fair women, as they say. |

| | Panagiotis Kakavas, a retired military officer who practices the "Religion of the Twelve Gods," recites a hymn to the god Hestia in Ancient Greek. | | | The Orthodox Church, which played a crucial role in the battle for Greek independence in the 19th century, has worked hard to connect itself in people's minds with the very concept of "Greekness," based on what it calls "Helleno-Christianity." But Papadimitriou says the new Hellenism is different. | | | "If people want to believe in the gods they can, but we don't believe that," says Marina Tontis, a computer programmer who attends the "Return of the Hellenes" gathering on Mount Olympus each year. |

| | HELLENIC COSMOGONY-POSEIDON-PREHISTORIC HELLENES AND THE SEA |
| | We could even say that all these sea-deities were invented by ancient Hellenes in their effort to give a complete and detailed description of Poseidon's attributes i.e. | | | In the same hymn Poseidon is said to be one of the oldest gods who dominates over the Earth, second after Zeus. | | | Apart from Poseidon there is a plethora of other sea-deities: Oceanus, Pontus, Thalassa (Sea) or Tethys, Forkys, Thaumas, Nereus, Nereides, Oceanides, Triton, Proteus, Glaucus etc. This plethora of sea-gods and goddesses indicates how much associated Prehistoric Hellenes were with Water which constituted one of the three fundamental forms of the Universe. |

| | Ancient History Sourcebook: Thucydides: On The Early History of the Hellenes (written c. 395 BCE) |
| | Of this, Homer affords the best evidence; for he, although he lived long after the Trojan War, nowhere uses this name collectively, but confines it to the followers of Achilles from Phthiotis, who were the original Hellenes; when speaking of the entire host, he calls them Danäans, or Argives, or Achaeans. | | | But when Hellen and his sons became powerful in Phthiotis, their aid was invoked by other cities, and those who associated with them gradually began to be called Hellenes, though a long time elapsed before the name was prevalent over the whole country. | | | And I am inclined to think that the very name was not as yet given to the whole country, and in fact did not exist at all before the time of Hellen, the son of Deucalion; the different tribes, of which the Pelasgian was the most widely spread, gave their own names to different districts. |

| | Hellenic Philosophy |
| | When Platonism, centuries later (3rd -6th A.D) was reborn as Neoplatonism in Alexandria, it branched out mainly into a Christian and a Hellenic version. | | | That the soul is immortal; that it changes into other living things; and that events recur in certain cycles and that nothing is ever absolutely new; and finally that all living things should be regarded as akin. | | | It is perhaps no accident that this same noble goal is found also in the Hellenic tradition as articulated in the Pythagorean and Platonic schools of philosophy. |
