Wikipedia: Arvanites are a population group in Greece who traditionally speak Arvanitika, a dialect of Albanian. They settled in Greece during the late Middle Ages and were the dominant population element of some regions of the Peloponnese and Attica until the 19th century. Arvanites today self-identify as Greeks.
