|
| rdfs:comment | - Autochthones (from Ancient Greek αὐτός autos "self," and χθών khthon "soil"; i.e. "people sprung from earth itself") are the original inhabitants of a country as opposed to settlers, and those of their descendants who kept themselves free from an admixture of foreign peoples. In mythology autochthones are those mortals to have sprung from the soil, rocks and trees. They are rooted and belong to the land eternally. An autochthon is not the same as the offspring of Gaia, called gegenes (earth-born), although later the terms have been conflated.
