All these settlements are doubtless older than Pheiddn, and we may conceive them as proceeding conjointly from the allied Dorian towns in the Argolic peninsula, at a time when they were... more in the habit of united action than they afterwards became: a captain of emigrants selected from the line of Herakl^ and T^menus was suitable to the feelings of all of them. We may thus look back to a period, at the very beginning of the Olym- piads, when the maritime Dorians on the east of Peloponnesus maintained a considerable intercourse and commerce, not only among themselves, but also with their settlements on the Asiatic coast and islands. That the Argolic peninsula formed an early centre for maritime rendezvous, we may farther infer from the very ancient Amphiktyony of the seven cities (Hermion^, Epi- daurus, -^gina, Athens, Prasiae, Nauplia, and the Minyeian Or- chomenus), on the holy island of Kalauria, off the harbor of Tnezen.2 The view here given of the early ascendency of Argos, as the head of the Peloponnesian Dorians and the metropolis of the Asiatic Dorians, enables us to understand the capital innovation of l^heidon, — the first coinage, and the first determinate scale of weight and measure, known in Greece.
