Ndërkaq, euriditi William Smith jep një pasqyrë të thuktë të kolonizimit të Epirit, Maqedonisë
dhe Thrakisë prej kolonëve-tregtarë 'grekë':

The Grecian colonies may be arranged in four groups:
1. Those founded in Asia Minor and the adjoining islands;
2. Those in the western parts of the Mediterranean, in Italy, Sicily, Gaul, and Spain;
3. Those in Africa; 4. Those in Epirus, Macedonia, and Thrace

4. There were several Grecian colonies situated on the eastern side of the Ionian sea, in Epirus and its immediate neighbourhood.
Of these the island of Corcyra, now called Corfu, was the most wealthy and powerful. It was founded by the Corinthians about B.C. 700,
and in consequence of its commercial activity it soon became a formidable rival to the mother-city. Hence a war broke out between these
two states at an early period; and the most ancient naval battle on record was the one fought between their fleets in B.C. 664.
The dissensions between the mother-city and her colony are frequently mentioned in Grecian history, and were one of the immediate
causes of the Peloponnesian war. Notwithstanding their quarrels they joined in planting four Grecian colonies upon
the same line of coast -- Leucas, Anactorium, Apollonia, and Epidamnus.

The colonies in Macedonia and Thrace were very numerous, and extended all along the coast of the AEgean, of the Hellespont,
of the Propontis, and of the Euxine, from the borders of Thessaly to the mouth of the Danube. Of these we can only glance at the most
important. The colonies on the coast of Macedonia were chiefly founded by Chalcis and Eretria in Euboea; and the peninsula of Chalcidice,
with its three projecting headlands, was covered with their settlements, and derived its name from the former city.
The Corinthians likewise planted a few colonies on this coast, of which Potidaea, on the narrow isthmus of Pallene, most deserves mention.

Of the colonies in Thrace, the most flourishing were Selymbria and Byzantium, both founded by the Megarians,
who appear as an enterprising maritime people at an early period.

Colonisation in the North of the Aigaian Sea. — The Thracian
and Macedonian coasts were of importance through their
wealth of timber for shipbuilding and their beds of precious
metals. Chalkis and Eretria planted a series of cities upon
the three-tongued peninsula which later received the name
Chalkidike. The evidence for its colonisation by Eretria is
the better, but the Chalkidians, as the name given to the
whole district shews, arose gradually to predominance. Here
too we find Corinth active ; upon the strip of land joining
the body of the peninsula to Pallene arose its settlement of
Poteidaia. Further towards the east the Parians occupied the
island of Thasos and the opposite mainland ; at both these
points they worked the gold-mines. Lastly mention has to
be made of a series of colonies on the Thracian coast which
were founded by cities of Asia Minor — Maroneia (planted by
Chios), Samothrahe (by Samos), and Ainos (by Mytilene)
