TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examine, so far as the evidence permits, the justice of the claim that Ionia was in the eighth and seventh centuries B.C. the infants' school of Hellas.
Abstract: A generation or so back scholars were disposed to find in Asiatic Greece the origins of most of Hellenic culture and art: and though Panionismus is no longer as openly professed, belief in it is at least implicit in many more recent works. The purpose of this paper is to examine, so far as the evidence permits, the justice of the claim that Ionia was in the eighth and seventh centuries B.C. the infants' school of Hellas.It is prudent to begin with a definition. The term ‘Ionian’ has been used in various senses, and this has made for confusion. First of all it is limited to the geographical area of Ionia; then it is extended to include many of the Cyclades and even Euboea; thirdly, though not often nowadays, it may embrace Athens also; yet again it sometimes covers all the Greeks of the East Aegean—Aeolian, Ionian and Dorian. In this paper ‘Ionian’ will be limited to the geographical Ionia: and the Aeolians, Ionians and Dorians of the East Aegean will be grouped together as ‘East Greek,’ according to current archaeological usage.

TL;DR: In this period, Phrygians established themselves in Anatolia, and along the western coast, numerous colonies were founded by Aeolians and Ionian Greeks as mentioned in this paper, where they became an important component of the Lycian civilization, and further east in the region of Rough Cilicia.
Abstract: Late Bronze Age Anatolia was dominated by the kingdom of the Hittites. Though its ruling class was an intrusive Indo-European group, the kingdom was made up of many ethnic elements, including a pre-Indo-European population called Hattians, another large Indo-European group known as Luwians, and a third Indo-European group called Palaians. Hurrians were also a component of the Hittite kingdom, as were Syrians. Following the empire's collapse, Luwian elements persisted in various parts of Anatolia, especially on the Mediterranean coast where they became an important component of the Lycian civilization, and further east in the region of Rough Cilicia. Luwians were a significant component of the Hittites' Iron Age successors, the Neo-Hittite kingdoms of southeastern Anatolia and northern Syria. In this period too, Phrygians established themselves in Anatolia, and along the western coast, numerous colonies were founded by Aeolians and Ionian Greeks. There were further Greek settlements in Pamphylia on the southern coast.
