I want to make you understand how the Hellenes falsify. Simply and with a clear conscience. As I have argued with dozens of facts, the term Greek, scientifically has been used for Orthodox Christian believers and not only in Greece, in all of Eastern Europe, multiethnic.
The term Greek, I have argued, is of Illyrian origin and was first used by Europeans, who addressed Eastern Orthodox Christians with this name.
So it entered the Patriarchate from the Catholic Christians of the West.
It is not a Hellenic name.
Today’s official Greece – hellenic news to show that Hellenism never died, but has had continuity, simply and strictly translates the term Greek Orthodox, giving this religious term a Hellenic ethnic color. An example from the book “LIBER QUINTVS”:
“CONVERSATION, apud Leonem in Difp. BISVNIANUM, hodie BISINIANVM, Bifignano, vrbs vetus Cala-briæ citerioris, in regno Neapolitano, Principarus titulo illuftris, habet Epifcopum Sedi Apoſtolicæ immediatè ſubiectum. Huius diœcefis vicos quofdam incolunt Albani, feu Albanen-ſes, ritu Græco diuina officia celebrantes.
EPIROTA, fiue ALBANIA, Illyrici populi, peculiarem habent linguam, à Græca diuerfam: in facris tamen ritus Græcanicos fequuntur, & Græcum etiam idioma callent: teſtis Bellonius lib. 1. Obferuat. chap. 64.”
Here you don’t see any use of the term Hellen, hellenic, but in the translation it all comes out as ellenica.
