polis
the mycenaeans greeks by the 15th century bc had reached rhodes, crete, cyprus, where teucer is said to have founded the first colony, and the shores of asia minor. moreover, greeks were settled in ionia and pontus. miletus in ionia was an ancient greek city on the western coast of anatolia, near the mouth of the maeander river. the late bronze age, 13th century bc, milesian saw the arrival in the area of luwian language speakers from south central anatolia calling themselves the carians. later in that century, other greeks arrived. the city at that time rebelled against the hittites empire. after the fall of that empire, the city was destroyed in the 12th century bc and starting about 1000 bc was resettled extensively by the ionian greeks. before the invasion from persia in the middle of the 6th century bc, miletus was considered the greatest and wealthiest of greek polis. over several centuries, numerous ancient greek city-states were established on the coasts of anatolia. greeks started western philosophy on the western coast of anatolia (pre-socratic philosophy). thales, anaximander, anaximenes, diogenes of apollonia were among of the renowned milesian school philosophers. heraclitus lived in ephesus (/ˈɛfəsəs/;[1] greek: ἔφεσος ephesos; turkish: efes) another ancient greek city and anaxagoras was from clazomenae, a city on the coast of ionia and a member of the ionian league. all ancient greek dialects were spoken in anatolia depending on the origin of the city states and the list of ancient greek theatres in anatolia is one of the longest among all places greeks had settled. in pontus, greeks traditionally lived in the region of pontus, on the shores of today's turkey's black sea and in the pontic alps, in northeastern anatolia and the former armenian province of kars in caucasus, and also in georgia. those from southern russia, the ukraine, and crimea are often referred to as 'northern pontic greeks', in contrast to those from 'south pontus', which strictly speaking is pontus proper. those from georgia, northeastern anatolia, and the ones who lived in present-day armenia are often referred to as 'eastern pontic greeks' or caucasus greeks. the greeks have founded well known cities to this day. the cities of sinope (greek: σινώπη, sinōpē) and trabzon (greek: τραπεζοῦς trapezous), were founded by milesian traders (756 bc) as well as samsun, rize and amasya. greek was the lingua franca of anatolia from the conquests of alexander the great up to the invasion of the seljuk turks in the eleventh century ad.
