The Orientalizing Period: Influence of Near Eastern on the Greek World
View through CrossRef
The Orientalizing period, which occurred from around the mid-8th to mid-7th centuries B. C. E. , was characterised by the obvious
influence of Eastern culture on different aspects of ancient Greek material culture. This includes the spread of ideas, motifs, and techniques
from the Near East to Greece and the wider Mediterranean region. The content of this paper is organised into three sections. The initial section
will present the distinctive historical context of the Orientalizing period and its fundamental factors. The subsequent section will determine
the specific geographic origins of this influence from the east and examine the processes through which it spread to the Greek realm. The third
part will explore the significant cultural exchanges between the Greeks and the Near Eastern regions, especially between Phoenicians, Egyptians, and Syrians. These interactions had a significant impact on Greek society, influencing the development of arts and technology, as well as
the broad social dynamics in the ancient Greek world.
