Speakers of Albanian, a language that originated anciently in Epiros and was not written in Biddle’s time, had spread over large parts of Greece. Even rural Attica was thoroughly Albanian. The Albanians had originally been all Orthodox Christians; but many of them became Moslems, if notoriously lax Moslems, to profit from the privileges accorded the conquering religion.

A district of Athens opposite to this fountain is called Callirhiotis, and is inhabited by Albanian settlers. Hence at Athens an Albanian and a Callirhiote are sometimes used as synonymous terms.

"The Albanians appeared first in Greece during the fourteenth century. They are found penetrating into almost every province of the Greek continent, sometimes occupying whole districts, sometimes mingling with the Greek population of the towns, as in Argos and Athens. At the present day, not to mention those districts where the Albanians are mixed up with the Greek population, Attica, Megara, Boeotin, Southern Eobcaa, Argolis, and the Corinthian territory, are possessed altogether by Albanians; and only the population of the towns is either altogether—as in Carysto, Piraeus, Nauplia, and Corinth—or principally Greek—as in Athens, Megara, and Argos. In the islands of Hydra, Spezzia, Poros, and* Salamis, the Albanians possessed the whole territory so exclusively, that, before the Greek revolution, no female, .it is said, could speak a single word of Greek. The maritime power of the Greeks at that time was confined to the first two mentioned islands, and to the island of Psara, which was inhabited by pure Greeks, but lies now beyond the boundary of the Hellenic kingdom. The naval exploits, therefore, which were among the most notable of the revolutionary war, belonged to the Albanian element, and even at the present hour the language of the sailor class is Albanian, not Greek. But more: even in the camps of Tripolizza and Athens, Greek was far from being the only language spoken; for in the land army also the Albanian element asserted its existence.

Of all the emigrants who have settled on the island the Albanians alone have not become merged in the general population. Locally known as Greci, they still form separate communities, speaking their own language and observing special religious rites, in several of the towns of the interior, and more especially at Piana de' Greci, which occupies a commanding hill to the south of Palermo.
