What the Ionian took to Ionia was a fusion of the Danubian with the Aegean culture. This would develop a fresh growth on a new soil, which lay more open to vital influences of the East than any on which either culture had flourished there- tofore. There is no ' miracle ' about Ionian civilization ; but there is a good deal yet to explain. LECTURE III IONIA When summarizing knowledge about the origins of Ionian civilization up to 1900 in my Introduction, I said that the most serious difficulty i...n determining its component elements arose from lack of archaeological evidence about Ionia before the Ionians. That difficulty, unfortunately, remains to this day little lessened. If the ruined tumulus near old Aeolic Smyrna, known as the Grave of Tantalus, and certain rude and half -buried traces of primitive inhabita- tion and human handiwork near it and on the mountain behind, had then to bear obscure and solitary witness to the pre- or proto-Ionians in Ionia itself, their witness is not more illuminating now.
