Ancient Greeks worldwide !?


•Age of Exploration: Orpheas, Dionysos,
                          Argonauts, Heracles, Iliad,
                          Odyssey, Pytheas, etc
•
•~ 3,000 years before Age of Exploration of
                                           Europeans
                                  WHAT DID THEY FIND ?
•Tin in the Cassiterides (British) Islands, so that the Bronze Age could start
•The ends of Mediterranean Sea, Black sea, maybe all oceans
•Historic immigration started with colonies around Greece (Black Sea, south of Italy, etc) ~ 700 BC
•Was this the first immigration ?
•Of course not: The Age of Mythology / Heroes had passed a long time before



•The following data from around the world are not all historic, but lots of evidence supports them 
(like who says "cuckoo up in the trees? it has to be a cuckoo bird and not a monkey!)
