  I think it's in the hands, well,
  我想它先是

  落入古亚述人之手

  and it will ultimately fall into the hands of the Persians.
  最后又被波斯所占领
• 
  
  So that is not territory that you can build colonies;
  因此在那里 你要面临波斯帝国的强权
• 
  
  you've got powerful empires to deal with.
  当然不适宜建立希腊殖民地
• 
  
  There is one exception. In the sixth century,
  但有一个例外 在公元前六世纪
• 
  
  I think it's around--imagine around 550 or something like that,
  我想大概是 在公元前550年左右
• 
  
  the Greeks settle a single colony
  希腊在埃及尼罗河三角洲
•

  Naucratis的意思就是船

  这跟我之前说过的Apoikia
• 
  
  from the Apoikia that I've been talking about.
  是完全不同的
