The other common names are Danaans (pronounced: /dæneɪ.ənz/; Ancient Greek; Δαναοί Danaoi; used 138 times in the Iliad) and Argives (pronounced:ˈ/ɑrɡaɪvz/; Ancient Greek: Ἀργεῖοι Argeioi; used 182 times in the Iliad) while Panhellenes (Ancient GreeK: Πανέλληνες Panhellenes) and Hellenes (pronounced: /ˈhɛliːnz/; Ancient Greek: Ἕλληνες Hellenes) both appear only once; all of the aforementioned terms were used synonymously to denote a common Greek civilizational identity. In the historical period, the Achaeans were the inhabitants of the region of Achaea, a region in the north-central part of the Peloponnese. The city-states of this region later formed a confederation known as the Achaean League, which was influential during the 3rd and 2nd centuries BCE.
