Difficulty in accessing books or other sources of info is an issue that better be discused in the "Off topic" session.
As for the subject of Macedonia Cristina I guess I should be flattered that some Slavs who only appeared in the Balkans in 5th century A.D. were so impressed by Alexander the Great and want to claim one of the noblest Greeks as one of their own. But I cannot see this thing lightly.
There too many monuments of Greeks who died defending this tortured piece of land from foreign depredations including relatives of mine.
MAKEDNOS = tall, good looking. They were Doreans and settlements with with Linear B script date from the early Bronze age.
The Cavali-Sforza DNA tables did not show any genetic diference between north-south Greek populations.
Its any body´s right to ignore the truth if he has political agenda but the truth is still the truth.
I guess they canot forgive Alexander for proving the military superiority of the WEST vs EAST and being the only general who conquered Afganistan where modern armies failed miserably.
Kind regards
Stefanos
