She again inclines him to them indirectly through the order of political association to which she leads and re- strains him.

The principal chains on one side of the sea and the lateral chains on the other separate a number of distinct provinces form- ART IN GREECE. 37 ing so many circumscribed districts Thessaly, Boe- otia, Argos, Messenia, Laconia and all the islands. It is difficult to traverse the sea in barbarous ages, while mountain defiles are always available for defense. The populations of Greece -accordingly could easily protect themselves against invasion and exist along- side of each other in small independent communities.
