Dinasti Argeadai: Perbedaan antara revisi

Tradisi mereka, seperti yang dijelaskan dalam historiografi Yunani kuno, menelusuri asal-usul mereka ke Argos, di [[Peloponnesa]], maka nama ''Argeadai'' atau ''Argives''.<ref>[http://www.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/english/Argive?q=argive Argive], Oxford Dictionaries.</ref><ref>{{harvnb|Hammond|1986|p=516}}: "In the early 5th century the royal house of Macedonia, the Temenidae was recognised as Macedonian by the Presidents of the Olympic Games. Their verdict considered themselves to be of Macedonian descent ."</ref><ref>{{harvnb|Howatson|Harvey|1989|p=339}}: "In historical times the royal house traced its descent from the mythical Temenus, king of Argos, who was one of the Heracleidae, and more immediately from Perdiccas I, who left Argos for Illyria, probably in the mid-seventh century BC, and from there captured the Macedonian plain and occupied the fortress of Aegae (Vergina), setting himself up as king of the Macedonians. Thus the kings were of largely Dorian Greek stock (see PHILIP (1)); they presumably spoke a form of Dorian Greek and their cultural tradition had Greek features."</ref>  Awalnya para penguasa suku homonymous,<ref>{{harvnb|Rogers|2004|p=316}}: "According to Strabo, 7.11 ff., the Argeadae were the tribe who were able to make themselves supreme in early Emathia, later Macedonia."</ref> pada masa Filipus II mereka telah memperluas pemerintahan mereka lebih lanjut, untuk memasukkan di bawah pemerintahan [[Makedonia (kerajaan kuno)|Makedonia]] semua negara Makedonia Hulu. Anggota wangsa yang paling terkenal adalah [[Filipus II dari Makedonia]] dan [[Aleksander Agung]], yang di bawah kepemimpinannya kerajaan Makedonia secara bertahap mendapatkan dominasi di seluruh Yunani, mengalahkan [[Kekaisaran Akhemeniyah]] dan berkembang hingga sejauh [[Mesir]] dan [[India]].

For his victory Caranus set up a trophy after the Argive fashion, but it is said to have been upset by a lion from Olympus, which then vanished. Caranus, they assert, realized that it was a mistaken policy to incur the undying hatred of the non-Greeks dwelling around, and so, they say, the rule was adopted that no king of Macedonia, neither Caranus himself nor any of his successors, should set up trophies, if they were ever to gain the good-will of their neighbors. This story is confirmed by the fact that Alexander set up no trophies, neither for his victory over Dareius nor for those he won in India."</ref>

Dalam penggalian Istana Kerajaan di [[Vergina|Aigai]] Manolis Andronikos yang ditemukan di ruang "tholos" (menurut beberapa ahli "tholos" adalah ruang takhta) sebuah prasasti yang berkaitan dengan keyakinan itu.<ref>{{harvnb|Andronikos|1994|loc=p. 38: Inscription found in the tholos room of the Agai Palace: "Η επιγραφή αυτή είναι: «ΗΡΑΚΛΗΙ ΠΑΤΡΩΙΩΙ», που σημαίνει στον «Πατρώο Ηρακλή», στον Ηρακλή δηλαδή που ήταν γενάρχης της βασιλικής οικογένειας των Μακεδόνων." [Translation: "The inscription is: «ΗΡΑΚΛΗΙ ΠΑΤΡΩΙΩΙ», which means "Father (Ancestor) Hercules", dedicated to Hercules who was the ancestor of the royal family of the Macedonians."]}}</ref> Ini disaksikan oleh [[Herodotos]], ''[[Historia (Herodotos)|Historia]]'', dimana ia menyebutkan bahwa tiga bersaudara dari keturunan Temenos, [[Gavanis]], [[Aeropos]] dan [[Perdikkas I dari Makedonia|Perdikkas]], melarikan diri dari Argos ke [[Suku Iliria|Iliria]] dan kemudian ke [[Makedonia Hulu]], ke sebuah kota bernama Lebaea, di mana mereka melayani raja. Yang terakhir meminta mereka untuk meninggalkan wilayahnya, percaya pada pertanda bahwa sesuatu yang hebat akan terjadi pada Perdikkas.  Anak-anak lelaki itu pergi ke bagian lain [[Makedonia (region)|Makedonia]], dekat taman [[Midas]], di atas mana gunung Bermio berdiri. Di sana mereka membuat tempat tinggal mereka dan perlahan-lahan membentuk kerajaan mereka sendiri.<ref>Herodotus. ''Histories'', [[s:History of Herodotus/Book 8|8.137]].</ref>
