But why here and why then? Several centuries earlier, the great Bronze Age civilizations of the Near East, in Mesopotamia, Egypt, eastern Turkey and Crete, had all or almost all collapsed. A wild and lawless age of petty kings and sea pirates – the world, essentially, described by Homer in “The Iliad” – had followed. But then, from around 650 BC, there was an emergence and revival, as a constellation of independent port cities began to emerge in the eastern Aegean. These were mainly merchant oligarchies, often deeply skeptical of the virtues of monarchy, dependent more on trade than agriculture,…

The “South” conjures up images and stereotypes both in and outside America, and as a virtual American correspondent, I thought my insights into our new region and its Greek communities might be of interest. It is no exaggeration to say that the “South” is a nation within a nation. The region attempted to secede from the American Union and almost succeeded. South Carolina was the first state to secede from the United…
