https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sitalces
Sitalces (Sitalkes) (/sɪˈtćlˌsiːz/; Ancient Greek: Σιτάλκης, reigned 431 – 424 BC) was one of the great kings of the ThracianOdrysian state. [1] He was the son of Teres I, and on the sudden death of his father in 431 BC succeeded to the throne. Sitalces enlarged his kingdom by successful wars, and it soon comprised the whole territory from Abdera in the south to the mouths of the Danube in the north, and from the Black Sea in the east to the sources of the Struma in the west.At the commencement of the Peloponnesian war Sitalces entered into alliance with the Athenians, and in 429 BC he invaded Macedon (then ruled by Perdiccas II) with a vast army that included 150,000 warriors from independent Thracian tribes (such as the Dii) and Paeonian tribes (Agrianes, Laeaeans).[dubious– discuss] He was obliged to retire through failure of provisions.
Sitalces was killed in 424 by the Thracian Triballi. He was succeeded on the Odrysian throne by Seuthes.
Sitalk Peak on Livingston Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica is named for Sitalces.

No. You're confusing the Byzantines with the ethnic Greeks of Greece. While the Rum identity was something based on the ethnic Greeks that were living in places like Antioch and etc in the middle east, the terminology evolved to refer to the Greek Orthodox Christians of the Levant, NW Arabia and SE part of Turkey regardless of ethnicity which included ancient Christian Arabs like the Ghassinids and the Tanukhids. And besides all that, we have genetic results of the ancient Mycenaean Greeks which make up around more than 70% of the modern Greek genome while the rest came mostly from other Southern Europeans like Italians aka admixture. Macedonians were a Northern Doric Greek speakers similar to the Spartan Greeks, and the Macedonia in modern day Northern Macedonia was a geographic region which was mostly inhabited by the ancient Paeonians rather than by ethnic Greeks themselves.

The bottom one, but you can't read it because you ain't no Macedonian...
Actually no part of the Rosetta Stone is written in colloquial Macedonian like the Pella Katadesmos. It is written in Attic Greek or Koine Greek by Ancient Macedonians ruling over Egypt.
So, what did the Oriental Institute of Chicago answer to Tentov and Boshevskis' pleas for comment? "Bring more toilet paper"? Or they still ignore those poor electricians' linguistic efforts?
