The culture of a society can be observed and defined on the land on which they are settled down. Therefore, the priority in historical surveys should be given to places where civilizations lived. The specific focus of this study is the concept of the Ancient Greek Civilization between 12th century BC and 1th centruy BC located in mainland of Greece. Along with the Agean islands, Anatolia and the East Mediterreanean area are also covered. Our approach to and point of view on the subject is reflected in the following question: Are the terms and definitions “Greek cities, Greek Polis, Ancient city and village”, which are commonly used in the aforementioned places and period still valid in the traditional sense? Moreover, the worry that this question entails is as follows. “The Greek or Hellen Civilization” concept has, like a mould pattern provided a practical functioning to the studies done and this functioning goes unquestioned. With regard to this, it is a fact that in a lot of traditional studies this pattern like prejudice is protected without being scrutinised. Therefore, the new data derived from other (parallel) studies is not integrated into these traditional studies which causes the continuation of evaluation on a limited scale. Accordingly, sample concepts like polis, khora, demos, kome, asty, peripolion, katoikia, aule, oikos, which are related to settlement as well as social-political organisation, are considered and studied in depth. Although our study cannot be described as an alternative solution or method proposal, our aim is to at least draw attention to up to date discussion and study methods.
