Rise of Ancient Greece
Chapter 4
Greek Geography
Greece is mostly low-lying, rugged
mountains
A land of peninsulas; Attica and
Peloponnesus are the largest
Thousands of Islands; Crete is the
largest
Greeks earned their living on the seas
and are a major shipping leader today
Early Civilizations
Minoans were a sea-faring people
who inhabited the island of Crete
between 2500-1450 B.C.
Mycenaeans, originally from central
Asia, settled in Balkan area about
2000 B.C.
Mycenaeans conquered the Minoans
in the 1400’s but were defeated by the
Dorians in 1100 B.C.
Early Greek Culture
Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey, set in the
1200’s, were used to teach values
Religion was based on the activities
of many gods which explained why
people behaved the way they did
Most important gods lived on Mt.
Olympus
Many celebrations developed
including the Olympics and Drama
The Polis
A city, including surrounding
farmland and villages
A temple sat on top of the
acropolis in the center of the city
Citizens of a polis had rights and
civic responsibilities, but were
only a minority in the polis
Growth and Change in Greece
In 700 B.C. overseas trade and
colonization increased as population
grew, but colonies kept culture
Economic growth brought political
change as well as aristocrats gained
power
Army began to rely on foot soldiers
(farmers) and aristocrats began to
lose power and tyrannies arose
New Rivals
After tyrannies most became either
democracies (Athens) or oligarchies
(Sparta)
Sparta
Peloponnesian Peninsula
Invaded neighbors instead of forming
colonies
A military society where life revolved
around the Army
Boys and girls trained to be strong
soldiers and mothers
Military success inhibited economic
and cultural development
Athens
Founded by Mycenaean descendents
on Attica Peninsula
Democratic gov’t included all
Athenian, free men as citizens
Leaders brought written laws,
improved the economy, gave land and
loans to the poor, and created and
improved the democracy
Persian Wars
Persia conquered Ionia in 546 B.C.
Athens led an unsuccessful revolt 50
years later
Persian leader, Darius I attacked
Athens at Marathon but was defeated
Persians attacked again in 480, but
the heroics of Leonidas allowed the
Spartan navy to destroy the Persian
navy and end the threat for good
Golden Age of Athens
461-429 B.C. when most Greek
achievements in art and science
occurred
After Persian wars, Pericles rebuilt
Athens into most beautiful city in
Greece
Men worked in the morning and
attended Assembly and symposium in
the afternoon
Peloponnesian War
As Athens began to grow into an
Empire, Sparta formed an alliance
with other city-states in 431 and
attacked Athens
Sparta defeated Athens in 404 B.C.
but the city-states of Greece were so
damaged after the war that the entire
society weakened and became
vulnerable to outside attack
