The league also held a sporting festival known as the Panionia.</p><p><br /></p><p>Kolophon was destroyed in the 3rd century BCE and a nearby port area around which a new town grew was renamed Kolophon...so fun fact, the Kolophon of Roman times is not the same Kolophon of Greek times.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>***Remember </b>that the Greek world back then was more than just modern Greece. Their city-states were all over the Mediterranean, including large parts of modern day Turkey, North Africa, Southern Italy, and the French and Spanish coasts.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
