Question

what are the different tribes of greek​

Answer 1

Answer:

Hellenes were divided into tribes: the Ionians, the Aeolians and the Dorians while special mentioned were the Acheans. According to the myth, Hellen (the ancestor) had 3 sons: Aeolus, Xuthus, and Dorus. Xuthus had two sons, Achaeus and Ion. Ionians lived in Attica, Euboea and the Cycladic islands in the eastern Aegean islands and in the classical Ionia on the western coast of Asia Minor. According to tradition, the oldest Ionian country was Attica where their roots had Ionians from Asia Minor and the island Ionians. During the Dorian invasion, Ionians in groups migrated to Asia Minor, and with them a small groups of other Greek tribes that were eventually merged with the Ionians. There are two groups of Ionians: Asian and Attica.

Explanation:

This part is not necessary for the answer. It is just a brief note to understand why we come across so many names of Greek people. There are many sub-tribes, clans, and related groups because they spoke Greek language. Some are Greek because they were conquered by the Greek empire. Under each of the three tribes there are many more separate groups divided by the location they lived. For example, Sparta, Myceneans, Symians, Agikoreis, Argadeis, Geleontes, Athenians, and many more are sub-tribes. Some groups are civilized while others are cruel barbarians. Athenians were civilized and they are the founders of the Olympic Games. We have to write a book to explain all available information.
