Pontic Greeks
The Pontic Greeks (; or ; , , ), also Pontian Greeks or simply Pontians, are an ethnically Greek group indigenous to the region of Pontus, in northeastern Anatolia (modern-day Turkey). They share a common Pontic Greek culture that is distinguished by its music, dances, cuisine, and clothing. Folk dances, such as the Serra (also known as ''Pyrrhichios''), and traditional musical instruments, like the Pontic lyra, remain important to Pontian diaspora communities.

Greek colonies continued to expand on the coast of the Black Sea (''Euxeinos Pontos'') between the Archaic and Classical periods. The Hellenistic Kingdom of Pontus was annexed by Ro ...
