(The) Mediterranean Defence

White's QP occupied the centre left vacant by Black (White's KP+QP forming a weak classical centre).
Black develops his King's Knight to KB3(f6) attacking White's KP. An inferior line first given in a 1620 book by the Italian Gioachino Greco, it illustrates an early mating attack. B-Alt.
