    History Which era was your ethnic group or nation formed in?

    862 - the call for the Vikings to Russia. 988 - baptization of Russia. 1016 - the first code/compilation of Russian laws. ~1090s - The Tale of the Bygone Years. So, Early Medieval or near so.

    US Elections Trump may not be as bad as he appears

    Ukrainians can't help but be a part of Russia, because Ukrainians and Russians are one ethnicity. They don't have history separate of Russia. It's a joke.

    Even the lands of the Stone Age peoples of Africa living today are not an empty place, and conflicts constantly arise between these tribes over land and resources. And we’re not even talking about the Bronze Age, which was much more developed in Greece at that time. So you are talking complete...

    It is not true, study the Helladic archaeology, especially in Northern Greece. Those people had very huge cities, they were very advanced and had double walls. And no, Greeks didn't settle there, they would be unsat by much stronger neighbours. And I didn't say anywhere that Central Greece was...

    No, they had double walls, everyone knows that well who knows Ancient Greek archaeology. There is no point in changing the Neolithic culture to the Mycenaean one just like that, which was also accompanied by the destruction of buildings and walls.

    There was no Greek-speaking population in Northern Greece. There were large Neolithic cities with double walls until destructions caused by Mycenaeans.

    No, the article says that the Greeks migrated to Epirus, Macedonia and Thessaly after settling in Central and Southern Greece. Again: "The finds from Aiani finds leave no further room for doubt that the north-western matt-painted ware was brought from the south by people returning to the north...

    Proto-Greek language was formed in Southern and Central Greece after the infiltrating of IE-speakers through the northern regions of the country. While the Indo-European part of proto-Greek was formed in the region of southern Serbia, as indicated by the northern source in the Mycenaeans...

    No, for example, Larissa was conquered by the Locrians in the LBA. It happened even after Greeks formed separate tribes.

    Thessaly was conquered from the south by Greeks, the proto-Greeks could not settle in Thessaly because the southern parts of Greece were conquered first, and from there were conquered the northern parts of Greece, which is confirmed by Ancient Greek historians and archeology. You are talking...

    What Thessalian plain are you talking about? Thessaly was non-Greek at the time of the Proto-Greeks' arrival. The Greeks conquered Thessaly after arriving in the Peloponnese. They conquered Thessaly and northern parts of Greece from there.
