How inaccurate,Europe makes everything Greek,for Philosophy existed in China and India way back before the Greeks. The philosophy came from the east to Europe, do not make something Greek because is written in Greek or has a Greek name. E.g Homer was not Greek also Aristotle,Alexander the great,Phyrros of Epirus etc etc were not Greek.
Illiad of Homer is only understandable in Albanian because it's written in Pelasg language which was the language of Illyrians,Thracians Dacians..
@germuesi They were greek in a cultural way, remember that nationalism and nation states are a 19th century concept. It is, however, more than likely that the pre-socratic thinkers were influenced by eastern thought. The birthplace of many pre-socratic philosophers lies in what is now western Turkey, these ideas could very well be traveling along existing trade routs.

The only mistake that I noticed was their forgetting to disable the comments option.

Beethoven was Albanian, as was Confucius, but Alexander the Great came from Barnsley.
