What term was not used during the Golden Ages of ancient Greece?

Answer 1

There are a vast number of terms that were not used in the Golden Age of Ancient Greece, mostly because they refer to terms or concepts that did not exist at that time period. One such example is the word "Greek" since the various Greek city states did not see themselves as one ethnic group, but rather as a number of distinct polities that seemed to have some cultural similarities only when compared to vastly different civilizations like Persia, Minoa, and Egypt. They used terms like Achaean and Danaan to refer to these cultural units of "Greekness", but the idea of unifying "Greekness" did not exist.

However, the phrasing of your question indicates that there is likely a set of choices that you are being provided. As we at WikiAnswers do not have your textbook or worksheet in front of us, we do not know what those terms are. Please resubmit the question with the terms included in it.

Answer 2

The source of the gold which Athens subsidised its golden era - extorting annual taxes from the 180 Greek city-states which it initially led against Persia. After peace was made with the Persian Empire, Athens converted the anti-Persian league into an empire of its own, continued to collect the annual war funds by force, and spent the money on itself - a golden age with stolen money.
