Hi Lazar,Excellent books! As I've seen so far, N. Hammond is frequently quoted on this forum. So, this books make an attempt to illuminate the problem associated with determining ethnicity of the ancient Macedonians .... it's really interesting how they don't agree with Hammond's interpretations on a number of points concerning this. Best regards, Poliksena

That's right Poli, If one wants to come closer to the truth, one has to read a lot of diferent books from diferent sources. Try, Diferences Between Ancient MAcedonians and Ancient Greeks, By J.S.G. Gandeto
And, this book Macedonian Conflict: Nice one, it has some quotes of original documents from the time of assimilation of Macedonian Ethnicity in Greece.

Regards,
Lazar
