"Not even a drop of noble and undiluted Hellenic blood flows in the veins of the Christian population of present day Greece." : Jakob Philipp Fallmerayer  While we mostly look to the future in this podcast, today we delve into the past to understand the enduring identity of the Greek people. Join host Panagiota Pimenidou as she welcomes back historian Dr. Marios Koutsoukos (University of Liverpool, Hellenic Open University, National and Capodistrian University of Athens) to confront the misconception that modern Greeks are disconnected from their ancient ancestors.We'll unravel the complex relationships between ancient Greek tribes – the Dorians, Ionians, Aeolians, and Achaeans – explore their links to the Minoan and Mycenean civilizations, and investigate the distinct impact of the Argead Macedonians. We'll also delve into the legacy of Byzantium and examine the evidence that fueled the Greek War of Independence, tracing the unbroken thread of Hellenism to the modern day.Connect with Panagiota:Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music, Facebook: Global Greek Influence PodcastYouTube: Giota PimenidouX: @global_greekTikTok: @The Innovation Catalyst

In this episode we look at Ancient Warfare Magazine VIII.2 "War, trade and adventure: struggles of the Ionian Greeks". Angus is joined by Josho Brouwers, Murray Dahm, Lindsay Powell, Mark McCaffery and Cezary Kucewicz.  "The ancient Greeks originally divided themselves into four major tribes, namely the Dorians, Aeolians, Achaeans, and Ionians. Each of these tribes also spoke a distinct dialect (Doric, Aeolic, Ionic), apart from the Achaeans, who used a form of Doric. The Athenians believed themselves to be the original Ionians and spoke a variant dialect called Attic. The focus of this issue is on the Ionian Greeks. Outside of Attica, Ionians lived on the island of Euboea, on the Cyclades, and in colonies settled in the central part of the west coast of Asia Minor, as well as on the islands off its coast, such as Chios and Samos."
