    So being an actual Capricorn Macedonian .... I am a perfect Macedonian amongst Macedonians. I always knew it but needed evidence to support it. Thanks.

    Notice that Ptolemy (not to be confused with King Ptolemy) differentiates Macedonia and Hellas as well as differentiate the peoples and their cultural standards.

    This is something about Ptolemy - http://ptolemy.berkeley.edu/people/ptolemy.htm

    Ptolemy was an astronomer, mathemetician and geographer in the second century A.D. He codified the Greek geocentric view of the universe, and rationalized the apparent retrograde motion of the planets using epicycles. The Ptolemaic system remained the accepted wisdom until the Polish scholar Copernicus proposed a heliocentric view in 1543.
