ASIATIC PROVINCE OF
ANCIENT GREECE

The province of Smyrna, ON the
coast of Asia Minor. was placed I'M
der Greek administration following
the World war. and has been the scene
recently OF fighting between Greek and
Turkish nationalist forces.
The basis for Greek claims to the
Smyrna district in Asia Minor is put
pithily in statement which former
Premier Venizelos of Greece is re-
ported to have made to the supreme
council of the allies. 1--WE seek no
mandate, we seek to enter our home"
Smyrna, and the remainder of the
west coast of Asia Minor, which have
been accepted as Turkish with little
question for many generations, had a
well-developed Greek civilization and
culture when the ancestors of the
Turks. half-civilized nomads, were
still wandering with their fiocks over
the bleak steppes of central Asia.
The portion of the province of
Smyrna which has been occupied by
Greek forces comprises roughly old
IOnia, country which was as purely
Greek as Attica itself, and parts of
AeOlis, another Greek country adjOin-
ing Ionia on the north. Greeks, pos
sibly from Crete or other islands of
the Aegean, are supposed to have set
tied in Ionia shortly after the Trojan
war. The cities which they built in
this favored land of sunny mountain
slopes, fertile valleys, and good har-
bOrs were thriving and wealthy marts
of trade and centers of culture eight
hundred years or more before the
time of Christ, when they are first
heard of in recorded history.
Smyrna is one of the cities
which claims to be the birth
place of Homer and tradition even
points on. a cave near the city in
which he is said to have composed
many of his poems. Sappho was
born in Asiatic Greece and maintained
a school in one of its cities. Sculp-
ture, painting, and practically every
phase of the Greek art which has de-
lighted later generations and served
as their models had its beginning in
Asiatic Ionia, and f1ourished there be-
fore coming to full flower in Athens
and the other cities of European
Greece. Ephesus. where that world
wonder, the temple of Diana stood
was not far from the present city OF
Smyrna. and dozen more of the
great cities of the early Greeks were
near by.
The modern province of Smyrna Is
the most favored of all the provinces
of Asia Minor 1t contains three OF
the most considerable rivers of the
country. including the Meander, whose
serpentine course has given the Eng
lish language an expressive verb. Fer
tile soil and temperate climate nave
added to the regions attractions, While
the possession of port and city
the city of OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES by an!
other in Asia Minor has contributed
another UNNECESSARILY important as
set. Though imperfectly titled during
its control by Turkey, the province
of SMYRNA has nevertheless been notice
for IFS fine fruits. For long time i
has furnished the best figs and ralslh'
which reach the markets of Europe.
