These six cities would later become rivals with the Ionian cities of Asia Minor. The Dorians also invaded Crete. These origin traditions remained strong into classical times: Thucydides saw the Peloponnesian War in part as "Ionians fighting against Dorians" and reported the tradition that the Syracusans in Sicily were of Dorian descent (Thucydides, 7.57). Other such "Dorian" colonies, originally from Corinth, Megara, and the Dorian islands, dotted the southern coasts of Sicily from Syracuse to Selinus. Culturally, in addition to their Doric dialect of Greek, these colonies retained their characteristic Doric calendar revolving round a cycle of festivals of which the Hyacinthia and the Carneia were especially important (EB 1911).
Some very ancient names for places, such as Korinthos derive from a pre-Greek, "Pelasgian" language; it seems likely that Corinth was also the site of a Bronze Age Mycenean palace-city, like Mycenae, Tiryns or Pylos.

I don't know... Wikipedia is dodgy. I mean, let's face it, there's a Wikipedis stub for Bartix... if people can add this sort of stuff in, how much more reliable can the rest be?
And about Makedonia, thanks Archelaos/Teleklos (however you spell it)... But shouldn't it be Maketia then as the link you gave me says at the end of the first para?
But otherwise, I'm getting confused about the other name debates. O_o
Wikipedia as a neutral source , Britanica wants money... ~;)
I am happy to announce the addition of another '*' to the Progress-O-Meter, due to recent progress Spidr and I have made with the historical ancillaries for Europa Barbarorum. They are not completely finished, but enough other things have been completed that I feel justified in adding this star. This brings the Percentage Complete number up to 30%. ~:)
thats great news mal!
most be a hard job with all those < and > and stuff..i saw three traits on a forum ones, i immediatly needed a drink~;)
You remembered to add another '_', right? :wink:Quote:

you mean, 'remove'? he has 14 _ and 6 *. 14x5=70 6x5=30 =100 no worries, i think malrubius is keen enough for that..~;)
He just means, to raise the bar a little. It would probably be accurate to add another '_', since the requirements for completion have been increased, along with the amount completed (It's a "two steps forward, one step back" kind of thing). The math starts getting a bit too complicated for me if I do that, though. ~;)
Uhh.. Yes, silly me :rolleyes: Yes, remove. That's right. Definately :mellow:
With the addition of kayapó to Europa Barbarorum, and recent work by Spidr, I am happy to announce the addition of another "*" to the Traits and Ancillaries Progress-O-Meter, putting us at 35% complete. ~D
Awesome, you guys may beat the june release date yet ~D
With the addition of hardcoded gubbin-monkeys to my work and the huge amount of time I've spent with the regular member CTDarius, I am happy to announce the addition of another ":mad:" to the ER Insanity Progress-O-Metre, putting me at 60% completely penguin-googol-multiplexered. This is promising for an early December confinement to a room with rubber walls.

I don't think me and Spidr can amount to a full "*"Quote:

We might MAYBE amount to 1/4 "*" at the most.
With this kind of pressure I might develop an insanity-o-metre myself. ~D
June, huh...Quote:

I give you my word that we will make it. ~:cool:

I only spotted this now. Isn't it time for an update?Quote:
