Plural of Grecian; people from Greece, or scholars and enthusiasts of Greek culture and language.
From 'Grecian' (adjective/noun meaning Greek or a Greek person), with '-s' pluralization, derived ultimately from Latin 'Graecus' (Greek).
In Renaissance and Victorian times, 'Grecian' scholars were intellectual celebrities—they could read ancient texts in the original language and unlock thousands of years of philosophy, drama, and history that had been lost to Western Europe during the Middle Ages.
