polis

Polis is a Greek word meaning “city-state.” Although the term originally referred to the citadel that overlooked many towns, it was used from the Archaic period (700–500 B.C.E.) onward to refer to the characteristic political community of the Greeks. It was during this period that the Greeks sent out colonies to Ionia on the western coast of Asia Minor and Magna Graecia in present-day southern Italy, including Sicily.
