Die Fallmerayer Theorie ist längst widerlegt.
The basis of this work is Aris N. Poulianos dissertation, which took
place in the University of Moscow, under the supervision of the famous
professor of Anthropology F. G. Debetz. The research was based on the
study of 70 human characteristics (p. ex. body height, width of face,
skin
colour, shape of eyes etc.) of about 3000 Greek emigrants in the f.
Soviet Union from different Hellenic areas. The statistical
elaboration of these characteristics in combination with their
geographical distribution demonstrated mathematically (because of
their low dispersion)
the incessant biological continuity of the Greeks all through the
historic and prehistoric epochs, which refer at least to the
Mesolithic and Upper
Palaeolithic periods (15.000-30.000 years). This historical continuity
is also proved by the comparison of measurements of the contemporary
inhabitants with those of the ancient skulls of Greece, which
statistically show no differences. Despite the occasional influences
and limited
migrations of populations, the anthropological research has shown that
the population of Greece is basically native and that the contemporary
Greeks
are descendants of the ancient peoples who resided in the Greek
peninsula.“Over 150 scientists of the University and the Academy of Moscow have
fully agreed with the scientific views of Mr. Aris.
Poulianos, underlining the seriousness of the research, and without
sparing their expressions, they spoke with praising words about him.
Dr S. A.
Tocarev, professor of ethnography in the University of Moscow and head
of the Department of Ethnography regarding the peoples of Europe at
the
Institute of Ethnography of the Moscow Academy of Sciences, stated the
following:
Aris Poulianos work presents an exceptional interest for the
ethnographic science. The huge anthropological material of Greeks,
which is
concentrated and statistically elaborated, introduces for the first
time new scientific sources for the study of a problem of basic
importance, as is the
problem of the origin of the Greek people.The
writer of the present study, convincingly and based on analogous
material, showed that whatever the influence of Slavs and other
peoples who came
in contact with the Greeks was, the people of modern Greece is
basically descendant of the ancient population of the Balkans and the
Aegean islands.
The worldwide famous anthropologist of Moscow University Dr I. I.
Roginski notes that in the southern part of the Balkans a wide border
between
the Dinaric and the front Asian anthropological types is located.
Therefore, in this area some of the general problems of the
classification of the
European and front Asian populations may be ascertained. It must be
also noted that by this work, the critique of the racist fabrications,
regarding
the genesis of the ancient Greek civilization, is found. “(Note:
meaning the racist theories supporting that contemporary Greeks are
not descendents
from the ancient and this is the reason why their civilization today
falls short compared to that of the developed countries. On the
contrary, besides
the groundless comparison – if for instance the traditions would be
taken into account – the scientific verification regarding the
biological continuity
of Greeks once more proves that the socio-historical and geographical
conditions are the main factors ruling the people’s cultural level.)”.
From the other side of Atlantic, in USA, the director of the
Smithsonian Institute, G.L. Angel, in a book review of “The origins of
the Greeks” at
the American Journal of Physical Anthropology (No 22, v. 5, 1964, p.
343) writes: Aris Poulianos… correctly verifies that there is a full
genetic
continuity from ancient to contemporary times.
“The scientific study of A. N. Poulianos refutes the dogmatic theory
of the Greek hater,
German historian Fallmerayer, who lived from 1790 to 1861, the time of
the Greek fight for independence. Him (Fallmerayer) altogether
dogmatically, that is without prior anthropological research - and
therefore self-evidently anti-scientifically - tried to support the
theory that Greeks
are mainly Slavs. The researcher (A. Poulianos) ends by mentioning
that the anthropological study, with the necessary historical and
linguistic data,
is necessary for the solution of ethnogenetic problems.
The present is the reflection of the past and in this lays its
historical value. If the past helps us understand the present, the
present helps us meditate
on the future.
