Vavilov Institute of General Genetics, Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow, Russia; 4Department of Biology, University of Crete, Crete, Greece; 5Department of Biology, University of Ferrara, Ferrara, Italy The island of Crete, credited by some historical scholars as a central crucible of western civilization, has been under continuous archeological investigation since the second half of the nineteenth century. In the present work, the geographic stratification of the contemporary Cretan Y-chromosome gene pool was assessed by high-resolution haplotyping to investigate the potential imprints of past colonization episodes and the population substructure. In addition to analyzing the possible geographic origins of Y-chromosome lineages in relatively accessible areas of the island, this study includes samples from the isolated interior of the Lasithi Plateau – a mountain plain located in eastern Crete. The potential significance of the results from the latter region is underscored by the possibility that this region was used as a Minoan refugium. Comparisons of Y-haplogroup frequencies among three Cretan populations as well as with published data from additional Mediterranean locations revealed significant differences in the frequency distributions of Y-chromosome haplogroups within the island.

Under average meteorological conditions, the island is water-sufficient (969 mm precipitation; theoretical water potential 3284 hm3; and total water use 610 hm3). Agriculture is by far the greatest user of water (78% of total water use), followed by domestic use (21%). Despite the high average water availability, water scarcity events commonly occur, particularly in the eastern-south part of the island, driven by local climatic conditions and seasonal or geographical mismatches between water availability and demand.

  • Bonelli's Eagle and Bull Jumpers: Nature and Culture of Crete

    Bonelli's Eagle and Bull Jumpers: Nature and Culture of Crete

    Crete April 2016 Bonelli’s Eagle and Bull Jumpers: Nature and Culture of Crete April 9 - 19, 2016 With Elissa Landre Photo of Chukar by Elissa Landre With a temperate climate, Crete is more pristine than the mainland Greece and has a culture all its own. Crete was once the center of the Minoan civilization (c. 2700–1420 BC), regarded as the earliest recorded civilization in Europe. In addition to birding, we will explore several famous archeological sites, including Knossos and ancient Phaistos, the most important centers of Minoan times. Crete’s landscape is very special: defined by high mountain ranges, deep valleys, fertile plateaus, and caves (including the mythological birthplace of the ancient Greek god, Zeus) Rivers have cut deep, exceptionally beautiful gorges that create a rich presence of geological wealth and have been explored for their aromatic and medicinal plants since Minoan times. Populations of choughs, Griffon Vultures, Lammergeiers, and swifts nest on the steep cliffs. A fantastic variety of birds and plants are found on Crete: not only its resident bird species, which are numerous and include rare and endangered birds, but also the migrants who stop over on Crete during their journeys to and from Africa and Europe. The isolation of Crete from mainland Europe, Asia, and Africa is reflected in the diversity of habitats, flora, and avifauna. The richness of the surroundings results in an impressive bird species list and often unexpected surprises. For example, last year a Blue- cheeked Bee-eater, usually only seen in northern Africa and the Middle East, was spotted. Join us for this unusual and very special trip.

    Crete Restaurant Guide

    MEETand EAT inCRETE FINE DINING GUIDE 2008 SUMMER FREE from LETTER the EDITOR THERE'S MORE TO CRETAN CUISINE THAN LUKE-WARM MOUSSAKA… I've long held the belief that quite often food is the point of entry into the core of a country's culture, and for many, a country's cuisine is the primary reason for visiting a destination. Eating what and where the locals eat is a great way to scratch below the surface of a country, to understand its history and to become a part of its community. A summertime visit to a Greek Island offers many opportunities unique to this time of year. This is when home-grown produce is at its peak-bursting with color and flavor. And you will find no better location to indulge in this foodfest than Crete. Always celebrated as a tourist destination for beaches and antiquities, the Island, a treasure trove of wild foods and deeply rooted cooking traditions, is becoming a foodie hotspot, which could rival many of the European capitals in the gourmet game. But finding a great meal here on the Mediterranean's 5th largest island is not an easy task, which is why Meet and Eat in Crete was created-to help you go out of the way and off the tourist track. New to the Guide this summer is a selection of some of our top chosen tavernas in and around the island. As an antidote to the ubiquitous beach scene, try one of our agrotourism tavernas in a breathtaking mountain village, such as Prinos in Ano Asites.
