الإغريق هي كلمة أطلقها العرب علي سكان اليونان القدماء. وكان لهم حضاراتهم التي تعتبر أم الحضارات في أوربا كالحضارة الرومانية ولاسيما في الفنون والفلسفة والآداب ولاسيما في مدن أثينا وأسبرطة وطيبة اليونانية. وأصل حضارتهم قد ظهرت في جزيرة كريت وميسينيا من خلال الحضارتين المينوية والميسينية. ورغم أن الإغريق قد تبنوا فكرة الحرية والديموقراطية إلا أنهم لم يلغوا الرق ولم يحرروا العبيد. وكانوا محاربين مرتزقة في جيوش مصر والعراق وفارس لفقر بلادهم. وقد سكن الأراضي الإغريقية الآخيون والدريانيون والأيونيون (اليونانيون). وهؤلاء كانوا يختلفون في اللهجة والعادات. وكان يطلق عليهم البرابرة. وقد نقلوا الأبجدية من الفينيقيين وكانت سائدة بين الكنعانيين والسوريين. وكان الإغريق ينقسمون عشائريا لأربع قبائل هي الآخيون والأيونيون والدوريون والإينوليون. ويطلق خطأ كلمة هيلينيين على اليونانيين فقط. ولكن هذه الكلمة تطلق علي كل الشعوب التي خضعت لحكم الإغريق في اليونان وجزرها ومدن آسيا الصغرى وجنوه بإيطاليا وجزيرة صقلية. لأن كلمة هيلانس كان الإغريق يطلقونها علي كل البلدان التي كانوا يحتلونها ولاسيما بعد فتوحات الإسكندر الأكبر.

التاريخ

Proto-Greek area of settlement (2200/2100-1900 B.C.) suggested by Katona (2000), Sakelariou (2016, 1980, 1975) and Phylaktopoulos (1975)

The Greeks speak the Greek language, which forms its own unique branch within the Indo-European family of languages, the Hellenic.[31] They are part of a group of classical ethnicities, described by Anthony D. Smith as an "archetypal diaspora people".[32][33]


الأصول

The Proto-Greeks probably arrived at the area now called Greece, in the southern tip of the Balkan peninsula, at the end of the 3rd millennium BC between 2200 and 1900 BC.[34][35][أ] The sequence of migrations into the Greek mainland during the 2nd millennium BC has to be reconstructed on the basis of the ancient Greek dialects, as they presented themselves centuries later and are therefore subject to some uncertainties. There were at least two migrations, the first being the Ionians and Achaeans, which resulted in Mycenaean Greece by the 16th century BC,[39][40] and the second, the Dorian invasion, around the 11th century BC, displacing the Arcadocypriot dialects, which descended from the Mycenaean period. Both migrations occur at incisive periods, the Mycenaean at the transition to the Late Bronze Age and the Doric at the Bronze Age collapse.

الموكنية

In ح. 1600 BC, the Mycenaean Greeks borrowed from the Minoan civilization its syllabic writing system (Linear A) and developed their own syllabic script known as Linear B,[41] providing the first and oldest written evidence of Greek.[41][42] The Mycenaeans quickly penetrated the Aegean Sea and, by the 15th century BC, had reached Rhodes, Crete, Cyprus and the shores of Asia Minor.[31][43]

اللغة

Most Greeks speak the Greek language, an independent branch of the Indo-European languages, with its closest relations possibly being Armenian (see Graeco-Armenian) or the Indo-Iranian languages (see Graeco-Aryan).[44] It has the longest documented history of any living language and Greek literature has a continuous history of over 2,500 years.[45] The oldest inscriptions in Greek are in the Linear B script, dated as far back as 1450 BC.[46] Following the Greek Dark Ages, from which written records are absent, the Greek alphabet appears in the 9th–8th century BC. The Greek alphabet derived from the Phoenician alphabet, and in turn became the parent alphabet of the Latin, Cyrillic, and several other alphabets. The earliest Greek literary works are the Homeric epics, variously dated from the 8th to the 6th century BC. Notable scientific and mathematical works include Euclid's Elements, Ptolemy's Almagest, and others. The New Testament was originally written in Koine Greek.

Greek demonstrates several linguistic features that are shared with other Balkan languages, such as Albanian, Bulgarian and Eastern Romance languages (see Balkan sprachbund), and has absorbed many foreign words, primarily of Western European and Turkish origin.[47] Because of the movements of Philhellenism and the Diafotismos in the 19th century, which emphasized the modern Greeks' ancient heritage, these foreign influences were excluded from official use via the creation of Katharevousa, a somewhat artificial form of Greek purged of all foreign influence and words, as the official language of the Greek state. In 1976, however, the Hellenic Parliament voted to make the spoken Dimotiki the official language, making Katharevousa obsolete.[48]

Modern Greek has, in addition to Standard Modern Greek or Dimotiki, a wide variety of dialects of varying levels of mutual intelligibility, including Cypriot, Pontic, Cappadocian, Griko and Tsakonian (the only surviving representative of ancient Doric Greek).[49] Yevanic is the language of the Romaniotes, and survives in small communities in Greece, New York and Israel. In addition to Greek, many Greek citizens in Greece and the diaspora are bilingual in other languages such as English, Arvanitika/Albanian, Aromanian, Megleno-Romanian, Macedonian Slavic, Russian and Turkish.[44][50]

الدين

Most Greeks are Christians, belonging to the Greek Orthodox Church.[51] During the first centuries after Jesus Christ, the New Testament was originally written in Koine Greek, which remains the liturgical language of the Greek Orthodox Church, and most of the early Christians and Church Fathers were Greek-speaking.[52] There are small groups of ethnic Greeks adhering to other Christian denominations like Greek Catholics, Greek Evangelicals, Pentecostals, and groups adhering to other religions including Romaniot and Sephardic Jews and Greek Muslims. About 2,000 Greeks are members of Hellenic Polytheistic Reconstructionism congregations.[53][54][55]

Greek-speaking Muslims live mainly outside Greece in the contemporary era. There are both Christian and Muslim Greek-speaking communities in Lebanon and Syria, while in the Pontus region of Turkey there is a large community of indeterminate size who were spared from the population exchange because of their religious affiliation.[56]

خط زمني

The history of the Greek people is closely associated with the history of Greece, Cyprus, Southern Italy, Constantinople, Asia Minor and the Black Sea. During the Ottoman rule of Greece, a number of Greek enclaves around the Mediterranean were cut off from the core, notably in Southern Italy, the Caucasus, Syria and Egypt. By the early 20th century, over half of the overall Greek-speaking population was settled in Asia Minor (now Turkey), while later that century a huge wave of migration to the United States, Australia, Canada and elsewhere created the modern Greek diaspora.

ملاحظات

  1. ^ There is a range of interpretations: Carl Blegen dates the arrival of the Greeks around 1900 BC, John Caskey believes that there were two waves of immigrants and Robert Drews places the event as late as 1600 BC.[36][37] Numerous other theories have also been supported,[38] but there is a general consensus that the Greek tribes arrived around 2100 BC.
