Ancient Greek refers to the dialects of the Hellenic language family from about 1100 B.C to 600 A.D., including during the historical periods of Archaic Greece (roughly 1000 B.C. to 500 B.C.), Classical Greece (roughly 500 B.C. to 300 B.C.), and the Hellenistic world (roughly 300 B.C. to 600 A.D.).
It is the language of the Homeric poems the Iliad and the Odyssey, of the great works of literature and philosophy of the Athenian Golden Age, of the foundations of our modern mathematics and sciences, and of the Christian Bible.
It was spoken in the independent Greek city states of Classical Greece and the empires founded by Alexander the Great, it was the second official language of the classical Roman Empire, and it was the official language of the Eastern Roman Empire in its early years.
