Abstract

Abstract Greek and Phrygian probably interacted over a period of several thousand years. Isoglosses linking the two languages presuppose a close genetic relationship in prehistoric times. Contacts between the two languages must have been maintained, whether or not continuously, until the end of the second millennium, by which time the Phrygians were to be found in Macedonia and Thrace. The Macedonian invasion inevitably intensified interactions between the two languages, bringing them to an unprecedented level, but also changing their character. This chapter examines how Phrygian survived, at least in written form, until the middle of the third century AD.
