    So, you’re talking about the people that emulated greek culture as they viewed it as more refined than their own?

      Yeah! I mean they took a good idea and spread it around way more effectively than the Greeks did

        The Greeks were isolationists. Each city-state considered itself the center of the world. It wasn’t on their list of priorities to share or spread their culture, unless it involved complete obliteration by conquest.
