Asia Minor, also referred to as Anatolia, is a region in which the Greeks have lived and advanced their culture, religion, politics, art and ideas since the second millennium BCE. However, today, this area is often overlooked as an important place of Hellenic heritage and history.

This presentation will be a brief retrospective on the important stages of Hellenism in Asia Minor, with main emphasis on the uprooting of the Anatolian Greeks from that area after the catastrophe of 1922 and its disastrous aftermath.
