[/qb][/QUOTE] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Mustafino: [qb] It seems around 500BC, Europa first designated mainland Greece and then became a reference for Greece and all lands north. It seems Graecoi was used to refer to them by many by the 8th century BC. Aristotle is the first person on record to use it. [/qb][/QUOTE]Evergreen Writes: Are you suggesting that the word Europa in 500BC had the same meaning as the modern word Europe/European? P.S. What part did Charlemagne play in the naming of Europe?
