According to the Stanford University scholar, George Hempl, who wrote of the origin of the Hittite-Greek culture during the second decade of the twentieth century, the people of Athens were descended from the original Hittite culture (termed "Javonian") that was over-run c. 1400 B.C. by the second "Hittite" culture (termed "Doric"). The Javonian Greeks were descended from their eponymous father, Javan, who was a grandson of the Biblical Noah. (Much has become distorted of the Flood record over five thousand years, yet Noah was a real person.) The name "Javan" is the origin of the later name, "Ionian" (Greek). Here, then, we reach the early history of the people of Athens. This Greek culture was originally that of the Javonians (Hempl), although this ancient history of the Greeks is now mostly lost on the population of the rest of the world.
