Abstract
During the last 5500 or so years, the Latmian Gulf has been silted up by the progradation of the Biiyiik Menderes (Maiandros) delta. Thus, the ancient sea port cities Miletos and Priene became landlocked. Based on the interpretation of drill cores this paper presents evidence that the area of Miletos consisted of islands when the first settlers arrived ca. 3500-3000 Bc During the Roman era, strong siltation processes can be proven. When Priene was founded anew around 350 BC, the eastern embayment at the foot of its promontory had already turned into a lake, whereas the western embayment was more suitable for a harbour site.
