Hellas or Greece – Some historical information
The formal name of Greece is “Hellenic Republic”. Hellas (Ελλάς) derives from the words “EL” which means land and “LAS” which means light. Thus, Hellas is the land of light. According to prof. Christoforos Charalampakis the origin of the word “Greece” is found back in the Ancient Ages. Greece’s name can be pronounced in two different ways. “Greeks” is the name given to those who live in Greece. The truth is that the Greek population prefers the names “Hellas” and “Hellene”. The word “Greece” has a long history dating back to antiquity. There were only a few “Graes” people living during the time of Aristotle. They may have been the first Greeks because they lived close to the Dodoni oracle. There were some ” Hellanes” people in Volos as well; their name was later changed to “Hellene.” The term “Panhellenic,” which refers to a feeling of shared origin, is used during the Hommer era. However, many people preferred not to be pronounced in this way because the word “Grekos” had an undervaluing meaning.
