On Some Disputed Questions Of Ancient Geography is a book written by William Martin Leake, a renowned British archaeologist and topographer. The book delves into various contentious issues surrounding the geography of ancient civilizations, particularly those of Greece and Asia Minor. Leake's book is divided into several chapters, each of which tackles a specific topic. He begins by discussing the location of the ancient city of Troy, which was famously described in Homer's Iliad. He then moves on to examine the geography of the Peloponnesian War, a conflict between the Greek city-states that took place in the 5th century BC. Other topics covered in the book include the location of the ancient cities of Colophon and Ephesus, the geography of the Persian Wars, and the location of the island of Ithaca, which was the home of the Greek hero Odysseus. Leake draws on a wide range of sources to support his arguments, including ancient texts, maps, and archaeological evidence. Overall, On Some Disputed Questions Of Ancient Geography is a fascinating exploration of the geography of ancient civilizations. Leake's meticulous research and insightful analysis make this book a valuable resource for anyone interested in ancient history or geography.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
