The paper examines a set of experiences related to the presence of Samians both in eastern and in western parts of the archaic Mediterranean and explores the idea that a special model of their attendance abroad could be traced. Based on various examples from the sixth to the first quarter of the fifth centuries, the Author argues that this peculiar feature might be singled out within the wider framework of occurrences in Western Mediterranean of Greek people from Ionia, a scenario in which emporie and “diaspora” seem to have been the two main forms.

Abstract
The paper examines a set of experiences related to the presence of Samians both in eastern and in western parts of the archaic Mediterranean and explores the idea that a special model of their attendance abroad could be traced. Based on various examples from the sixth to the first quarter of the fifth centuries, the Author argues that this peculiar feature might be singled out within the wider framework of occurrences in Western Mediterranean of Greek people from Ionia, a scenario in which emporie and “diaspora” seem to have been the two main forms.File in questo prodotto:
