During the formative years of the archaic period, Ionia was one of the most important regions of the ancient world; however, Ionia's local identity has often been overlooked in scholarly works. This long overdue study of Archaic Ionia seeks to redress this omission. Drawing from over a century of archaeological research, the book identifies and examines the key socio-economic factors that distinguish the land of Ionia and its people from the broader Greek mainland. Access to German and Turkish scholarship provides a useful point of entry to the published literature for academics and students. Accessibly written and thoroughly researched, The Land of Ionia offers new perspectives on issues of identity and historical tradition in one of the least understood regions of ancient world.
