Wikipedia

  1. Arvanites

    Arvanites (; Greek: Αρβανίτες, romanized: Arvanítes; Arvanitika: Αρbε̱ρεσ̈ε̰, romanized: Arbëreshë or Αρbε̰ρορε̱, romanized: Arbërorë) are a bilingual population group in Greece who traditionally speak Arvanitika, an Albanian language variety, along with Greek. They settled in southern Greece during the late Middle Ages and were the dominant population element in parts of the Peloponnese, Attica and Boeotia until the 19th century. Arvanites today self-identify as Greeks as a result of a process of assimilation, and do not consider themselves Albanian. They call themselves Arvanites (in Greek) and Arbëror (in their language). Arvanitika is in a state of attrition due to language shift towards Greek and large-scale internal migration to the cities and subsequent intermingling of the population during the 20th century.
