Ionia
Ionia
Ionia was the central stretch of the Aegean coast of Asia Minor (modern western Turkey) settled by Greeks, together with the offshore islands; its leading cities included Miletus, Ephesus, and Smyrna. It was the cradle of early Greek natural philosophy (the Milesian thinkers) and the home region of the satirist Lucian of Samosata's literary milieu.
