Usage notes
According to Wikipedia:
 * The name "Pelasgians" was used by classical Greek writers to refer either to the predecessors of the Greeks, or to all the inhabitants of Greece before the emergence of the Greeks. In general, "Pelasgian" has come to mean more broadly all the indigenous inhabitants of the Aegean Sea region and their cultures. British historian Peter Green comments on it as "a hold-all term for any ancient, primitive and presumably indigenous people in the Greek world". (For references, see )
