The word Greek, according to Aristotle, comes from the word Graikoi which was the pre-historic name of the Hellenes. The people who we call the Greeks, and live in a country we call Greece, actually call themselves Hellenes and live in a country called Hellas.

Introduction to Ancient Greek History (CLCV 205) Professor Donald Kagan explains why people should study the ancient Greeks. He argues that the Greeks are worthy of our study not only because of their vast achievements and contributions to Western civilization (such as in the fields of science, law, and politics) but also because they offer a unique perspective on humanity. To the Greeks, man was both simultaneously capable of the greatest achievements and the worst crimes; he was both great and important, but also mortal and fallible. He was a tragic figure, powerful but limited. Therefore, by studying the Greeks, one gains insight into a tension that has gripped and shaped the West and the rest of the world through its influence. In short, to study the Greeks is to study the nature of human experience. 00:00 - Chapter 1. Ancient Greece as the Foundation of Western Civilization 13:06 - Chapter 2.

The National Archaeological Museum in Athens is the single best place on earth to see ancient Greek artifacts. Strolling through the chronologically displayed collection — from 7000 BC to AD 500 — is like watching a time-lapse movie of the evolution of art. You'll go from the stylized figurines of the Cycladic Islands, to the golden artifacts of the Mycenaeans, to the stiff, stoic kouros statues of the Archaic age.

Introduction to Ancient Greek History (CLCV 205) In this lecture, Professor Donald Kagan explores the earliest history of Greek civilization. He demonstrates how small agricultural enclaves eventually turned into great cities of power and wealth in the Bronze Age, taking as his examples first Minoan Crete and then Mycenaean Greece. He also argues that these civilizations were closely related to the great monarchies of the ancient Near East. He points out that the Mycenaean age eventually came to an abrupt end probably through a process of warfare and migration. Reconstructing the Mycenaean age is possible through archaeological evidence and through epic poetry (Homer). Finally, he provides an account of the collapse of the Mycenaean world, and explains how in its aftermath, the Greeks were poised to start their civilization over on a new slate. 00:00 - Chapter 1.

Introduction to Ancient Greek History (CLCV 205) In this lecture, Professor Donald Kagan examines the developments that took place after the Greek victory over the Persians in 479 BC. He argues that even after the Greek victories, there was great fear amongst the Greeks that the Persians would return to seek revenge. For this reason, many of the Greek poleis, especially the islands, looked to Athens to lead this league, which later became the Delian League. Athens, according to Professor Kagan, accepted this responsibility, since it too feared a Persian invasion, but Sparta was content to retreat into the Peloponesus. Finally, Professor Kagan intimates that this league would eventually turn into the Athenian empire. 00:00 - Chapter 1. Consequences of Greek Victory over the Persians 21:21 - Chapter 2.

Introduction to Ancient Greek History (CLCV 205) In this lecture, Professor Donald Kagan tells the story of the emergence of the polis from the Dark Ages. He shows that by the time of the poet Hesiod, there is already a polis in place. He describes the importance of the polis in the Greek world and explains that it was much more than a mere place of habitation; it was a place where there was justice, law, community, and a set of cultural values that held Greeks together. Finally, Professor Kagan argues, following the lead of Victor David Hanson, that the polis came to be chiefly through the emergence of a new man: the hoplite farmer. 00:00 - Chapter 1.

A documentary about the ancient Greek Kingdom of Macedonia. To anyone not familiar with Greek history and the devious political games of certain lobbies in the Balkans, I must stress that this documentary is about the ancient Greek Kingdom of Macedonia, which was situated in the Greek province of Macedonia and has no relation to the newly founded Slavic state of FYROM which changed its name from Vardarska to Macedonia by copying (misappropriating) the historical name of the adjacent Greek region. 3lyk-ioann.ioa.sch.gr ΕΛΛΑΣ ΕΛΛΑΔΑ ΜΑΚΕΔΟΝΙΑ ΕΛΛΗΝ ΜΑΚΕΔΩΝ ΕΛΛΗΝΑΣ ΜΑΚΕΔΟΝΑΣ ΜΑΚΕΔΝΟΣ AIANH ΠΕΛΛΑ ΑΙΓΕΣ ΒΕΡΓΙΝΑ ΔΙΟΝ HELLAS GREECE MACEDONIA MAKEDONIA MACEDOINE ALEXANDRE LE GRAND ALEXANDER THE GREAT ALEXANDROS MEGAS FILIPPOS PHILIP GREEK MACEDON MAKEDON MAKEDNOS PHILIPPOS KASSANDER KASSANDROS PERDIKKAS PERDICCAS ΑΙΑΝΙ PELLA VERGINA AIGES DION

Abridged version from YALE University course: Introduction to Ancient Greek History (CLCV 205) Many on the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia and its diaspora, are trying to dis-associate the ancient Macedonians from the Greeks, with references to pseudo historians and revisionists who act on behalf of FYROM's propaganda identity forming circles. Here is a short version from a world leading university, about the Macedonians and their rise to power in the Greek world. I have cut it down to 14 minutes, to transform it to a short introduction on Macedonia and Greece. Please feel free to see the entire lecture from the link bellow, or even follow the entire course on the introduction to ancient Greek history, if you so wish to acquire a deeper understanding of it. The Fall of the Greek Polis (Conclusion) In this lecture, Professor Kagan tells the story of the rise of Philip and describes his early actions: unifying Macedon, defeating barbarian armies, and creating a new, professional, national army. According to Professor Kagan, through these actions, Philip was able to make inroads into the Greek world. What made these inroads more effective was Philip's uncanny talent for diplomacy and the fighting between the various poleis. Eventually, the Greeks under the efforts of Athens and Demosthenes decided to face Philip in the battle of Chaeronea. The battle, though close, was won by Philip and his Macedonian forces. Finally, Professor Kagan evaluates the actions of ...
