Correction:
Do not get confused by the other type of Phalanx, the MACEDONIAN Phalanx. The first is not called, GREEK PHALANX, they were BOTH GREEK. The Macedonians were greeks. The original phalanx is called the HOPLITE PHALANX. The reason why the other is called the Macedonian Phalanx is to differenatiate the two styles of warfare. The Macedonians were the ones who refined this tactic. Untill that moment, they were also using the hoplite Phalanx that the rest of the greeks used
