Macedonia belongs to one
of the richest archaeological findings on the Balkan peninsula, and without
its artifacts completing the history of Europe and the world is impossible.Her
cultural layers are rich of remains of a material culture which, up till
now can be dated: starting somewhere at the end of the Mesolithic and the
beginning of the Neolithic period.(Picture
1), i.e. from 7.000 - 6.000 B.C. up till now. An absolute chronology
of her development suggests a long continuity of people living in these
places, of many changes and events, of the presence of a high culture of
the so called pre Slav population, of the coming and leaving of invading
waves, |
of catastrophies and violence, of attempts
of assimilation and syncretism, but also of the survival of
the identity of the Macedonian people, of the prevedic culture mythology
and a cult of the sun and the cosmos ( space, universe) of the prehistoric
Macedonian phonetic alphabet and the prehistoric Macedonian language, of
the existence of prehistoric Macedonian laws and prehistoric Macedonian
state. Homer in the "Iliad" mentions Macedonian tribes (Payonian,
Pelazgian, Venets or Enets, Brygian or , Phrygian etc.) that fight on the
side of the Trojans against the allies of the new coming conquerors of
the Balkans - Danaians, i.e. in the "Iliad" is portrayed a happening that
occurred in 1193 - 1183 B.C. that is according to the famous alexandrian
scientist Eratosten (III century B.C.) the happening which in the epic
is portrayed on 15.693 should be treated in fact as the WW I between
the so called pre Slav population of the Balkan - Anadolian cultural complex
and the allies of the new incoming conquerors on the Pelopones (Morea)
and Atica - the Danaians. Beside this, it is also known that in the IV
century B.C. the Macedonians succeeded to create a Macedonian kingdom or
Macedonian empire on a territory of about 3.8 mil km2, (map2)
and later in the epoch Macedonian period in the shape of 4 kingdoms
with their Macedonian dynasties continued to spread Macedonian culture
and to breed the spirit of creativity and bringing the peoples, cultures
and regions of the world together. Macedonians were and remain an authentic
people on the Balkan peninsula while others came and went as guests or
conquerors.
Probably it is the reason why Herodot (484 - 424 B.C.) mentions: "Macedonian",
"Macedonians", "Macedonia", "Upper Macedonia", "Lower Macedonia", "Macedonian
mountains", "Macedonian roads" etc. In the "Holy Scriptures" she is mentioned
as a biblical country, biblical people, Macedonia and Macedonians. |
