Pelasgians

by Daphne Elliott

 
Before recorded Time, (c. 900 BCE) but during an active migration era of prehistoric Greece (c. 10,000 BCE), a people came into the Pelaponnesus, presumably from the north, and settled around the eastern Mediterranian coast and its islands, Sicily, Lamapadusa etc. They were called “Pelasgians,” which has several specific meanings, depending on which translation one might be reading.
