List of Rulers: The Ancient Greek World
“An abridged list of rulers for the ancient Greek world concentrating on the Hellenistic age (323–31 B.C.), after the time of Alexander the Great. In the preceding centuries, Greek city-states were governed by a variety of entities, including kings, oligarchies, tyrants, and, as in the case of Athens, a democracy.”
The following abridged list of rulers for the ancient Greek world is primarily for the rulers of the Hellenistic age (323–31 B.C.), after the time of Alexander the Great. In the preceding centuries, the dominant geopolitical unit was the polis or city-state. Greek city-states were governed by a variety of entities, including kings, oligarchies, tyrants, and, as in the case of Athens, a democracy.Macedonian Truth Organisation

Originally posted by Daskalot View PostAha, so how did the ancients from the city-states whom spoke the Attic dialect note this in their writings, because there was also a Doric dialect etc., so the two were not mixed up.
Dialects existed then as they do now....still not following.

Show us valid example to prove your point that Attic was used by the city states cause it was sophisticated!
And for starters like your self, Macedonia was Kingdom, no city state.To enquire after the impression behind an idea is the way to remove disputes concerning nature and reality.

Why so curious? This is thread is dedicated to Macedonian archaeology, an archaeology that is housed in the world's finest museums....what's your ulterior motive?
