The aS trap Of Western Anatolia And The Greeks Abstract This dissertation explores the extent to which Persian policies in the western satrapies originated from the provincial capitals in the Anatolian periphery rather than from the royal centers in the Persian heartland in the fifth ec ntury BC. I begin by establishing that the Persian administrative apparatus was a product of a grand reform initiated by Darius I, which was aimed at producing a more uniform and centralized administrative infrastructure. In the following chapter I show that the provincial administration was embedded with chancellors, scribes, secretaries and military personnel of royal status and that the satrapies were periodically inspected by the Persian King or his loyal agents, which allowed to central authorities to monitory the provinces. In chapter three I delineate the extent of satrapal authority, responsibility and resources, and conclude that the satraps were supplied with considerable resources which enabled to fulfill the duties of their office. After the power dynamic between the Great Persian King and his provincial governors and the nature of the office of satrap has been analyzed, I begin a diachronic scrutiny of Greco-Persian interactions in the fifth century BC.

GENERAL DISCUSSION……………………………………………..19 2 OVERVIEW of the PROJECT The Kas-Kekova region, sometimes called Lycian coasts, has a unique natural heritage. Lycia is a part of the Turkish Mediterranean coast where some sections are still not destroyed by human development. This coastline includes the most variable and spectacular coastal and marine landscapes, as well as fauna and flora. Kas-Kekova region supports a wide array of habitats and species including Posidonia oceanica meadows, groupers, common dentex and many invertebrates species. The surrounding waters support marine turtles, monk seals and dolphins, and the small islets (Bes Adalar) are home to feeding and breeding colonies of these species. Marine bio-diversity assessment carried out in the framework of MedPAN South Project in 2009 to figure out complete biodiversity within the border of Kas-Kekova SPA. It was a complementary study of the work has been done in 2002 and 2006. During the previous studies only certain species were investigated that were selected based on their IUCN status (endangered, threatened) and protection status under international conventions or under the National Fisheries Manual and their presence in the survey area and in addition some flagship species were selected to highlight the habitats. In the framework of this project not only the marine species were examined, but also as much information as possible about the sediment structure, physical properties, fauna and flora of the region was gathered, due to the nature of the project as being the first and most detailed of its kind.
