I am responsible for the following names:
Aztecs
Huns (from Asiatic)
Minoans
Persians
Phoenicians
Saxons
I defend the name of the Huns with Mongolians. (The "Huns" used to be named the "Asiatic"...more a collection of tribes than any specific civilisation.) Compare settlement maps:

Minoans and Greeks... I can almost understand. However, Ancient Greece was a very separated collection of culture. I am rather sure that the implication of "Greeks" leads to Athenian culture.
