Mountainous, mysterious yet welcoming, known since antiquity, Samos is the eighth largest Greek island. It boasts an amazing coastline and unique beaches, a verdant natural land- scape of forests, vineyards, ancient olive groves and charming little villages scattered on its hillsides. Glorious history and living traditions, variety of cultural activities, friendly people, exceptional local products and a unique cuisine will fascinate you. Overview of Samos Samos is the closest of the Greek islands to the Turkish coast. The dis- 2 tance of 1,300 metres separating Europe from Asia has been known since 1 ancient times as “Eptastadios Porthmos” or “Mycale Strait”. Chios lies to 3 the Northwest of Samos, Ikaria to the west, the island complex of Fournoi 4 Korseon to the southwest and the Dodecanese to the south of the island. 5 2 6 6 The town of Samos (Vathy) is the administrative centre of the munici- 3 1 4 5 pality. Karlovasi is the second largest urban centre, hosting the headquar- ters of the School of Sciences of the University of the Aegean. Pythagorio is 1. Lemonakia beach and Kokkari in the background the historic municipality of the island, where the foundations of the ancient 2. Archaeological Site of Pythagorio Castle city of Samos were laid. Its fourth largest town is Marathokampos, at the 3. Ormos Marathokampos foot of the imposing mountain Kerkis. A total of 33 large and small villages 4.

Pythagorio in evening light coast of the island to the mainland, which is dominated by two mountain ranges, Karvounis (elevation 1,153 m) and Kerkis (elevation 1,443 m). Samos is the birthplace of great historical figures of the ancient world: the philosopher Epicurus, the founder of the heliocentric theory Aristarchos, as well as the great philosopher and mathematician Pythagoras. Herodotus and Aesop also lived for long periods on the island and, according to mythol- ogy, the goddess Hera was born there. 6 Samos Guide / History Samos Guide / History 7 Emblem of the Principality Revolutionary Flag 01 02 03 04 05 06-09 10 11-12 Samian woman Ancient Quarries Temple of Hera Kouros of Samos Genoese Castle in Potami Map of Samos dated 1717 (Tournefort) of the 18th century Samos Town Hall Prehistory - Antiquity Middle Ages Principality N.

  • Kretan Cult and Customs, Especially in the Classical and Hellenistic Periods: a Religious, Social, and Political Study
    i Kretan cult and customs, especially in the Classical and Hellenistic periods: a religious, social, and political study Thesis submitted for degree of MPhil Carolyn Schofield University College London ii Declaration I, Carolyn Schofield, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been acknowledged in the thesis. iii Abstract Ancient Krete perceived itself, and was perceived from outside, as rather different from the rest of Greece, particularly with respect to religion, social structure, and laws. The purpose of the thesis is to explore the bases for these perceptions and their accuracy. Krete’s self-perception is examined in the light of the account of Diodoros Siculus (Book 5, 64-80, allegedly based on Kretan sources), backed up by inscriptions and archaeology, while outside perceptions are derived mainly from other literary sources, including, inter alia, Homer, Strabo, Plato and Aristotle, Herodotos and Polybios; in both cases making reference also to the fragments and testimonia of ancient historians of Krete. While the main cult-epithets of Zeus on Krete – Diktaios, associated with pre-Greek inhabitants of eastern Krete, Idatas, associated with Dorian settlers, and Kretagenes, the symbol of the Hellenistic koinon - are almost unique to the island, those of Apollo are not, but there is good reason to believe that both Delphinios and Pythios originated on Krete, and evidence too that the Eleusinian Mysteries and Orphic and Dionysiac rites had much in common with early Kretan practice. The early institutionalization of pederasty, and the abduction of boys described by Ephoros, are unique to Krete, but the latter is distinct from rites of initiation to manhood, which continued later on Krete than elsewhere, and were associated with different gods.

    Herpetology Notes, volume 11: 175-178 (2018) (published online on 20 February 2018) Two cases of melanism in the Ring-headed Dwarf Snake Eirenis modestus (Martin, 1838) from Kastellorizo, Greece (Serpentes: Colubridae) Konstantinos Kalaentzis1,*, Christos Kazilas1 and Ilias Strachinis1 Pigmentation serves a protective role in many 2016).

The Dwarf Snake inhabits rocky areas of pigment-bearing cells called chromatophores can with sparse vegetation and often hides under stones, be found in the skin of reptiles, namely melanophores, where it feeds mainly on terrestrial arthropods (Çiçek iridophores, erythrophores, and xanthophores (Bechtel, and Mermer, 2007).

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.

  • New Ladies Joining the Fleet
    THE DANSHIP NEWS A SEMI-ANNUAL EDITION OF DANAOS SHIPPING CO. LTD. ISSUE #5, JUNE 2013 New ladies joining the fleet The trends of the global market are changing rapidly and the extended recession period of the container industry is continuing. Danaos could not let the opportunity slip and as such added two new acquisitions to our fleet . Our first acquisition joined our fleet in May. The M/V “AMALIA C”, a 2,452 TEU, geared Container vessel built in 1998, was delivered in Singapore. With the delivery of the M/V “AMALIA C”, Danaos is entering in a specific sector i.e. that of the geared feeder fleet, an area which has remained challenging, throughout the “dry spell” of the container industry. Our second Lady, the M/V NILEDUTCH ZEBRA, a 2,526 TEU, 2001 built geared container vessel, joined our fleet in mid-June and was delivered in Rotterdam. Consequently, Danaos sold four of our fleet's older vessels (Henry, Independence, Pride, MV Honour) for demolition purposes and replaced them with new acquisitions, mainly coming form the second-hand S&P market.
