What name did the founding Greeks of ancient Macedonia give to their dynasty?
The dynasty was the Argead Dynasty from Argos in the Peloponnese. The Macedonians were thought to not be considered as Greek by the Greeks or by themselves but that is an unsubstantiated theory that has clearly been disproven. Herodotus: [V.22]: "And that these descendants of Perdikkas are Hellenes, as they themselves say, I happen to know myself...". Herodotus: [IX.45] quoting Alexander I, "…for I should not utter them if I did not care greatly for the general safety of Hellas, seeing that I AM A HELLENE MYSELF BY ANCIENT DESCENT and I should not wish to see Hellas enslaved instead of free."

Did the ancient Greeks go on holiday?
Depends what you mean by holiday!Rich Greeks did travel during the classical period. For instance the Greek historian Herodotus apparently traveled widely across the ancient world including all over Greece, Italy, Egypt, Persia and even to modern day Russia. However the purpose of this travel was probably more to do with making educational and political contacts than lying on the beach.Only the very best educated and richest Greeks would have traveled in this way.Poorer citizens would have also have traveled for reasons ranging from military campaigns, trade and setting up of new colonies but again none of these could be classed as holidays. However citizens did travel for religious ceremonies, drama competitions and athletic games, probably the closest the ancient Greeks got to having a holiday.Several hundred years later, about 150 years after Christ, a Greek writer called Pausanias wrote a sort of travel guide to Greece, almost like a modern Blue Guide.By this time, at the peak of the Roman Empire, there were many well heeled tourists among the Romans who had made fortunes from the Empire. Many traveled to Greece and Egypt on sight seeing trips or had very lavish holiday homes constructed in places like the island of Capri or in countryside outside Rome or in southern Italy.
What effect did trade have on the early Greeks?
in the old greek times trade was their desire. To get the goods they lacked or desired, they traded with other groups of people in the Mediterranean. For example, Greek farmers could grow barley and wheat, which made tastier bread. Over time, this led the ancient Greeks to import wheat from other places. In exchange, the early Greeks exported their own goods. These goods included wine, olive oil, pottery, and wood.
