Letter Zu DownloadPresident, United States of America. White House. 16. 00 Pennsylvania Avenue, NWWashington, DC 2. Dear President Obama, We, the undersigned scholars of Graeco Roman antiquity, respectfully request that you intervene to clean up some of the historical debris left in southeast Europe by the previous U. S. administration. On November 4, 2. President George W. Bush, his administration unilaterally recognized the Republic of Macedonia. This action not only abrogated geographic and historic fact, but it also has unleashed a dangerous epidemic of historical revisionism, of which the most obvious symptom is the misappropriation by the government in Skopje of the most famous of Macedonians, Alexander the Great. We believe that this silliness has gone too far, and that the U. S. A. has no business in supporting the subversion of history. Let us review facts. The documentation for these facts here in boldface can be found attached and at http macedonia evidence. The land in question, with its modern capital at Skopje, was called Paionia in antiquity. Mts. Barnous and Orbelos which form today the northern limits of Greece provide a natural barrier that separated, and separates, Macedonia from its northern neighbor. The only real connection is along the AxiosVardar River and even this valley does not form a line of communication because it is divided by gorges. While it is true that the Paionians were subdued by Philip II, father of Alexander, in 3. B. C. they were not Macedonians and did not live in Macedonia. Likewise, for example, the Egyptians, who were subdued by Alexander, may have been ruled by Macedonians, including the famous Cleopatra, but they were never Macedonians themselves, and Egypt was never called Macedonia. Rather, Macedonia and Macedonian Greeks have been located for at least 2,5. Greek province of Macedonia is. Exactly this same relationship is true for Attica and Athenian Greeks, Argos and Argive Greeks, Corinth and Corinthian Greeks, etc. We do not understand how the modern inhabitants of ancient Paionia, who speak Slavic a language introduced into the Balkans about a millennium after the death of Alexander can claim him as their national hero. Alexander the Great was thoroughly and indisputably Greek. His great great great grandfather, Alexander I, competed in the Olympic Games where participation was limited to Greeks. Even before Alexander I, the Macedonians traced their ancestry to Argos, and many of their kings used thehead of Herakles the quintessential Greek hero on their coins. Euripides who died and was buried in Macedonia wrote his play Archelaos in honor of the great uncle of Alexander, and in Greek. While in Macedonia, Euripides also wrote the Bacchai, again in Greek. Presumably the Macedonian audience could understand what he wrote and what they heard. Alexanders father, Philip, won several equestrian victories at Olympia and Delphi, the two most Hellenic of all the sanctuaries in ancient Greece where non Greeks were not allowed to compete. Even more significantly, Philip was appointed to conduct the Pythian Games at Delphi in 3. B. C. In other words, Alexander the Greats father and his ancestors were thoroughly Greek. Greek was the language used by Demosthenes and his delegation from Athens when they paid visits to Philip, also in 3. B. C. Another northern Greek, Aristotle, went off to study for nearly 2. Academy of Plato. Aristotle subsequently returned to Macedonia and became the tutor of Alexander III. Letter ZuckerbergThey used Greek in their classroom which can still be seen near Naoussa in Macedonia. Alexander carried with him throughout his conquests. Aristotles edition of Homers Iliad. Alexander also spread Greek language and culture throughout his empire, founding cities and establishing centers of learning. Hence inscriptions concerning such typical Greek institutions as the gymnasium are found as far away as Afghanistan. They are all written in Greek. The questions follow Why was Greek the lingua franca all over Alexanders empire if he was a Macedonian Why was the New Testament, for example, written in Greek The answers are clear Alexander the Great was Greek, not Slavic, and Slavs and their language were nowhere near Alexander or his homeland until 1. This brings us back to the geographic area known in antiquity as Paionia. Why would the people who live there now call themselves Macedonians and their land Macedonia Why would they abduct a completely Greek figure and make him their national hero The ancient Paionians may or may not have been Greek, but they certainly became. Greekish, and they were never Slavs. They were also not Macedonians. Ancient Paionia was a part of the Macedonian Empire. So were Ionia and Syria and Palestine and Egypt and Mesopotamia and Babylonia and Bactria and many more. They may thus have become Macedonian temporarily, but none was ever Macedonia. The theft of Philip and Alexander by a land that was never Macedonia cannot be justified. The traditions of ancient Paionia could be adopted by the current residents of that geographical area with considerable justification. But the extension of the geographic term Macedonia to cover southern Yugoslavia cannot. Salinas Letter Zumba' title='Salinas Letter Zumba' />Even in the late 1. The same motivation is to be seen inschool maps that show the pseudo greater Macedonia, stretching from Skopje to Mt. Olympus and labeled in Slavic. The same map and its claims are in calendars, bumper stickers, bank notes, etc., that have been circulating in the new state ever since it declared its independence from Yugoslavia in 1. Why would a poor land locked new state attempt such historical nonsense Why would it brazenly mock and provoke its neighbor However one might like to characterize such behavior, it is clearly not a force for historical accuracy, nor for stability in the Balkans. It is sad that the United States of America has abetted and encouraged such behavior. We call upon you, Mr. Hackintosh Boot Camp Drivers.

Our common international society cannot survive when history is ignored, much less when history is fabricated. Sincerely,Anagnostis P.
