Ancient Greece & the Mediterranean Islands
In the 2nd century BC, artistic and cultural activities reached their heights in the cities of Ionia, a densely populated area on the cost of modern-day Turkey, as well as on a cluster of islands off the eastern Mediterranean. Priene, Miletus, Delos, Slave Island, Kos and Rhodes, home of the famous Colossus, are just some of the places we will be visiting.
Ionia (Ancient Greek: Ἰωνία or Ἰωνίη; Turkish: İyonya) is an ancient region of central coastal Anatolia in present-day Turkey, the region nearest İzmir, which was historically Smyrna. It consisted of the northernmost territories of the Ionian League of Greek settlements. Never a unified state, it was named after the Ionian tribe who, in the Archaic Period (600--480 BC), settled mainly the shores and islands of the Aegean Sea. Ionian states were identified by tradition and by their use of Eastern Greek.
Ionia proper comprised a narrow coastal strip from Phocaea in the north near the mouth of the river Hermus (now the Gediz), to Miletus in the south near the mouth of the river Maeander, and included the islands of Chios and Samos. It was bounded by Aeolia to the north, Lydia to the east and Caria to the south. The cities within the region figured large in the strife between the Persian Empire and the Greeks.
According to Greek tradition, the cities of Ionia were founded by colonists from the other side of the Aegean. Their settlement was connected with the legendary history of the Ionic people in Attica, which asserts that the colonists were led by Neleus and Androclus, sons of Codrus, the last king of Athens. In accordance with this view the Ionic migration, as it was called by later chronologers, was dated by them one hundred and forty years after the Trojan war, or sixty years after the return of the Heracleidae into the Peloponnese.
From the 18th century BC the region was a part of the Hittite Empire with possible name Arzawa,which was destroyed by invaders during the 12th century BC together with the collapse of the Empire. Ionia was settled by the Greeks probably during the 11th century BC. The most important city was Miletus (the Milawanta of Hittites). Several centuries later Ionia was the place where western philosophy began and was the homeland of Heraclitus, Thales, Anaximander and Anaximenes. They were natural-philosophers of the Ionian school of philosophy and tried to explain the phenomena according to no-supernatural laws. They also searched a simple material-form behind the appearances of things (origin) and this conception had a great influence on the early archaic art in Greece.

Zia Village - Kos Island
Asfendiou is situated 14 kilometers south west of Kos Town at the mountainside of Mountain Dikeo. There are around 100 permanent residents and according to history the old village flourished between 1850 and 1940. Asfendiou thanks to viniculture and olive-crop has a very interesting architecture with two different “neighbourhoods”, Evagelistria or Pera Gitonia and Asomatos. Close to the village you can find the beautiful villages of Zia, Agios Dimitrios, Zipari, Tigaki, Linopoti and Lagoudi. Places worth visiting include the church of Asomaton Taxiarchon of the 11th Century with its wooden temple and the ruins of the Early Christian Basilica of Agios Pavlos (Saint Paul) just further away from the village.
Kos Town Greece 2018
Kos Island Greece is one of Dodocanese islands in the Aegean See. It is the third largest island of the Dodocanese, after Rodes and Karpathos.
On the northeastern part of island is situated Kos town the capital and main port.
Town is ideal place for walking around and admire ancient Greek, Roman and Byzantine ruins or medieval castle, or just walk along the Palm Tree Avenue. You can go around town by bicycle since there are many bicycle paths through the town. Mini train for sightseeing is a bit expensive for what you get.
Port is important and very vibrant part of town. There are many excursion wooden boats for neighboring islands Persimos, Kalymnos and Plati. Also ferryboats for Bodrum Turkey, and many fancy yachts.
All along the port are bars and restaurants with nice drinks and tasty food ( Gyros, Souvlaki, posa cheese in wine...).
Medieval Castle of the Knights of Saint John, Neratzia is next to the port. Entrance is by bridge that crosses over beautiful Palm Tree Avenue. It was closed due to last year (2017) earthquake.
In the center of town is large platan tree seeded by Hippocrates ( legend ) father of medicine, who lived on Kos and worked in Asclepion.
There are many signs of past all around town: Agora, Roman Villa, Roman Odeon, Western archeological site, Asclepion 3.5 km from town.
Near the town there are nice beaches with good beach bar like: Lambi, Mylos, Ag. Fokas and Thermes.

Greece, Kos Island - the Asklepieion
Photographer:Samuel Magal (Samuel@sites-and-photos.com)
An asclepeion was a healing temple in ancient Greece (and Rome), sacred to the god Asclepius, the Greek god of medicine. These healing temples were a place where patients would visit to receive either treatment or some sort of healing, whether it was spiritual or physical. The Asclepeion of Kos is one of the most impressive sanctuaries consacrated to Asclepius, the greek god of medicine.
