Polybius
Greek Historian.[c 200-118 B.C.]

[4](Book XVIII. 5) Philip V from Macedon responds to the Greek and Roman demands:

"But what is most outrageous of all is that they should attempt to put themselves on the same footing as the Romans and demand that the Macedonians should withdraw from the whole of Greece.To use such language is arrogant enough in the first place,but while we may endure this from the Romans, it is quite intolerable coming from the Aetolians.In any case,he continued,'what is this Greece which you demand that I should evacuate, and how do you define Greece?Certainly most of the Aetolians themselves are not Greeks!The countries of the Agraae,the Apodotea, and the Aphilochians cannot be regarded as Greek.So do you allow me to remain in those territories."

From the above encounters we infer: They, the Greeks, would like to see him, King Philip V from Macedon, leave Greece and go to his own kingdom in Macedonia, and by the strongest implication, we concur that:
-Ancient Greeks did not regard the ancient Macedonians as their kinsmen.
-Ancient Macedonians did not regard the Greeks as their own people.
-Ancient Macedonians has conquered the Greek states.
-Ancient Macedonians had enslaved the Greeks and sold them as slaves.
-Macedonia was not a greek land
