Grecians
Ancient Mediterranean people
Grecians is an archaic or literary term for Greeks—the people of Greece.
The word appears in older translations of the Bible and in classical literature but sounds antiquated in modern usage: The Grecians gathered for the Olympic games.
Today, Greeks is standard; Grecians survives mainly in historical or poetic contexts.
