Thanks for the correction on the relationship and the additional footnotes on this.-- Doug talk 12:19, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
Just so everyone knows, I created the "Archaeological evidence" section. I believe that the sourced content is relevant to the topic. If anyone has any logical objections, then please discuss them here and not on my discussion page. The purpose of my edits is to provide an archaeological dimension to the article (aside from the mention of "Minyan ware" in the introduction). Take care. Elysonius ( talk) 01:52, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
I am sorry... I haven't so much familiarity with English language, but I think the first text portion (in yellow background) probably should be delete.

[Entry was discovered while reading/learning about the Bronze Age cultures of Europe.]
A prima fascie inspection of this article shows that the users involved made objectively constructive edits while sustaining the entry's overall quality. But after having consulted the entry's history, I noticed a small number of quality-enhancing contributions (i.e. content clarification, additional sources/citations, updated entry navigation) that were "buried" under a preexisting series of COI-based altercations. The long absence of COI's has permitted the restoration of positive contributions and the formation of a "Stable Version".
As a disclaimer, the edits submitted towards creating this "Stable Version" are not to be construed as proof of any covert/overt affirmation of expertise as this particular subject matter is outside of my scholarly purview. Moreover, I have no inclination of involving myself in any of the "exciting" debates here. As of now, the entry's quality appears to fulfill the following criteria: 1) balanced content, 2) professional content, 3) simple/intelligible content.
And please feel free to make any further good faith edits towards improving the quality of current "Stable Version". Thank you.

Μινύες is the Modern Greek name. The article should use the Ancient Greek name, Μινύαι. 24.189.107.131 ( talk) 22:27, 4 August 2018 (UTC)

The article is currently quite confusing, as it focuses on archaeology but without the mythological context. Currently the lead paragraph is:
According to Greek mythology and legendary prehistory of the Aegean region, the Minyans or Minyae ( Greek: Μινύες, Minyes) were an autochthonous group inhabiting the Aegean region. The extent to which the prehistory of the Aegean world is reflected in literary accounts of legendary peoples, and the degree to which material culture can be securely linked to language-based ethnicity have been subjected to repeated revision.
I suggest changing it to:
In Greek mythology, the Minyans or Minyae ( Greek: Μινύες, Minyes) were a group of legendary people who were the inhabitants of the city Orchomenus in Boeotia, and who were also associated with Thessaly. [1] They were named after their eponymous acestor, Minyas.
In archaeology, the term "Minyans" has been applied to the Minyan ware excavated from Orchomenus, and is used to refer to an autochthonous group of Proto-Greek speakers inhabiting the Aegean region, though the degree to which the material culture in the prehistory of the area can be securely linked to the legendary people or language-based ethnicity has been subjected to debate and repeated revision.
