Strabo says ... ( 1 year ago by REALmacedonianGR)
Strabo says Hepirotans were Greeks, Pausanias that mainland Greece is Hepirus, How can mainland of Greece be EPIRUS if it wasnt Greek? Apollodoros calls Pyrrhus army the mightiest among the Greeks. If Pyrrhus's army wasnt Greek how could it be the mightiest of Greek armies? Omiros says "Epirus and rest of Greece". If Epirus wasnt Greek , would he say "rest of Greeks" He also says Pyrrhus is a descedant of Greek Achilleas. This is proof my friend

So what do u suggest? THAT ALEXANDROS IS A LIAR WHEN HE SAYS HE'S A GREEK? "For I Alexander myself am by ancient descent a Greek, and I would not willingly see Hellas change her freedom for slavery." (Herod. IX, 45, 2 [Loeb])

Illyrians Hepirus were Greek tribes DO NOT FORGET THAT ALBANIANS R BALKANS COWARDS, THEY ALWAYS FAILED TO OPPOSE ANY INVADERS & ALWAYS OBAYED ALL CONQUERERS. THEY BECAME TURKS OUT OF FEAR! THEY BECAME MOSLEMS & WERE PLACED BY OTTOMANS IN KOSSOVO IN ORDER TO KICK OUT SERBS THAT DIDNT WANT TO BE TURKIZED-ALBANIANS ALIED WITH FACIST MOUSOLINI OUT OF FEAR & LET Italians invade their country & helped attack Greece.TODAY THEY R WITH AMERICANS.Allying with the strong out of fear-NEVER FAUGHT BACK

Phillipos was Greek [He himself says so] Olympias was from the Greek state of Hepirus.Thats why both of their names were Greek.Hepirus was developed fom Illyria.Illyrian were Greeks. Illyrios was the son of Greek Cadmus and Harmonia from Thebes. Albanians hadnt yet invade Hepirus, they weere still living in Caucasus.Coming at a later time
Because Albanians ... ( 1 year ago by REALmacedonianGR)
Because Albanians change the orignal Illyrios to Ilyret so it can mean something in Albanian does not make Illyrians Albanians.CAN U FIND A SINGLE ANCIENT DOCUMENT THAT SAYS ILYRET ? NO NO NO . ONLY ILLYRIOS. He was Greek ILLYRIANS WERE GREEKS. ALBANIANS WERE STILL IN CAUCASUS WHEN GREEK ILLYRIANS WERE BEING PROUD TO BE GREEKS.

Why do you distinct Illyrians, Thracians & Pelasgians Dacians from Greeks? They all were Greek tribes.Their name was Greek .Illyrios was the son of Cadmus and Harmonia from Thebes. Pelasgians is a Greek word meaning people from the sea ,Pelagos=sea in Greek [we still use the word] Thrace still exists in Greece
