EMMANUEL KOFI ACKAH (CO-SUPERVISOR) i http://ugspace.ug.edu.gh/ ABSTRACT Two main, often conflicting, approaches or theories have been provided to understand or explain human-geography relationships, namely, geographic determinism and geographic possibilism. Scholars who hold geographic deterministic views argue that geographic conditions, to a larger extent, determine human culture and development. On the other hand, the possibilists argue that humans have the capacity to arise above the dictates of the geographical environment to modify and adapt to geographic conditions for their development. Contextually, the Balkan peninsular, since classical antiquity, has been considered by scholars as a major determinant of Greek, admirable human achievements and development.

  • Recent Trends in the Archaeology of Bronze Age Greece
    J Archaeol Res (2008) 16:83–161 DOI 10.1007/s10814-007-9018-7 Aegean Prehistory as World Archaeology: Recent Trends in the Archaeology of Bronze Age Greece Thomas F. Tartaron Published online: 20 November 2007 Ó Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2007 Abstract This article surveys archaeological work of the last decade on the Greek Bronze Age, part of the broader discipline known as Aegean prehistory. Naturally, the literature is vast, so I focus on a set of topics that may be of general interest to non-Aegeanists: chronology, regional studies, the emergence and organization of archaic states, ritual and religion, and archaeological science. Greek Bronze Age archaeology rarely appears in the comparative archaeological literature; accord- ingly, in this article I place this work in the context of world archaeology, arguing for a reconsideration of the potential of Aegean archaeology to provide enlightening comparative material. Keywords Archaeology Á Greece Á Bronze Age Á Aegean prehistory Introduction The present review updates the article by Bennet and Galaty (1997) in this journal, reporting work published mainly between 1996 and 2006. Whereas they charac- terized trends in all of Greek archaeology, here I focus exclusively on the Bronze Age, roughly 3100–1000 B.C. (Table 1). The geographical scope of this review is more or less the boundaries of the modern state of Greece, rather arbitrarily of course since such boundaries did not exist in the Bronze Age, nor was there a uniform culture across this expanse of space and time. Nevertheless, distinct archaeological cultures flourished on the Greek mainland, on Crete, and on the Aegean Islands (Figs.

  • Owen Harris Hellenes and Arabs at Home and Abroad Greek
    Hellenes and Arabs at Home and Abroad: Greek Orthodox Christians from Aleppo in Athens Owen Harris A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in International Studies University of Washington 2021 Committee: Kathie Friedman Mary Kay Gugerty Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Henry M. Jackson School of International Studies ©Copyright 2021 Owen Harris University of Washington Abstract Hellenes and Arabs at Home and Abroad: Greek Orthodox Christians from Aleppo in Athens Owen Harris Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Kathie Friedman Jackson School of International Studies Abstract: In this thesis, I show how communities living together in relative equality in Aleppo, Syria, and fleeing the same conflict, experienced very different outcomes depending on which religious community they belonged to. Members of the Greek Orthodox Christian community from Aleppo who have moved to Athens reported that their new home is exactly the same as the community they left behind. Members of the Muslim community from Aleppo in Athens did not agree with this statement. Why do Greek Orthodox Christians fare so much better than their Muslim compatriots in Greece? I argue that this inequality is a result of opportunities and challenges created by policies instituted during the great unmixing of peoples in the early 20th century and the refugee crisis in the early 21st century. Greek Orthodox Christians are equal citizens in a secular Arab republic that values ecumenism and members of the Greek diaspora in a Hellenic republic that privileges Greek ethno-religious belonging. They are Arab Hellenes, equally Greek and Syrian. Drawing on data collected in interviews with members of the Greek Orthodox Syrian community in Greece, as well as Syrians of different faiths in other countries, I examine what went right for Greek Orthodox Syrians in Athens and suggest policy tools that government and civil society can use to create similar conditions for Muslim Syrians in Greece.

  • Geography and Early Greek Civilization
    Geography and Early Greek Civilization SWBAT: -Identify and explain the geographical advantages and disadvantages of Greece. -Compare and contrast Greek geography to the geography of Ancient River Valley Civilizations. Greece is mountainous. Greece is a mountainous peninsula with islands. The Geography of Greece • Ancient Greece consisted of a large mountainous peninsula and islands in the Aegean Sea. • Its hilly terrain made farming difficult • Its location encouraged trade. Mountains separated Greek cities. The Effects of Mountains Greece’s mountainous terrain separated the ancient Greek cities. As such, the ancient Greeks never developed a unified system of government. The ancient Greeks developed the polis or the city-state. The Greeks lived in separate city-states. The Polis • Polis was the Greek word for “city-state”. • A polis was an independent city and its surrounding farmland. • Every polis had its own government and laws but the Greeks shared a common language and religion. The ancient Greeks farmed but it was difficult. Hills are not suited for farming. However, there is always the sea. Even today, the Greeks have access to the Mediterranean Sea and the Aegean Sea. The Seas • Greece is a peninsula and islands. • Seas surround parts of Greece. • The Seas allowed the Greeks to travel and trade. • Trade encouraged cultural diffusion. Trade and Cultural Diffusion • The seas allowed the Greeks to depend heavily on trade. • Trade encouraged cultural diffusion. • The Greeks were exposed to the Phoenician alphabet and Egyptian geometry. Questions for Reflection: • Why was it difficult to farm in ancient Greece? • Why did the Greeks depend heavily on trade? • List two geographic features and their effects on the Greeks.

  • The Greek Diaspora in a Globalised World
    PART 3 Culture & Identity George Kanarakis Charles Sturt University The Greek diaspora in a globalised world Abstract The term diaspora, carrying a sense of displacement as a result of emigration, has become a key word in today’s globalised world and it represents, semantically and conceptually, a quite complex and fluid notion. Especially in post-World War II times it has experienced more expansion and in the past two decades it has proliferated in a range of directions to accommodate political, cultural and even interdisciplinary agendas. Within this context, the present article aims at providing a cohesive account of the dynamics of the Greek diaspora, both as a historical and immigrant phenomenon. For a comprehensive picture, this article reflects on the energy, character, demographic situation, causes and community organisations of the Greek diaspora in its transnational frame of reference. Preamble The term diaspora, like that of migration, has become a key word in today’s globalized society. It originated in Hellenistic times, with its earliest usages encountered in the Septuagint with reference to the Jewish diaspora (Deuteronomy ch. XXVIII, line 25, Jeremiah, XV: 7, Psalms, 147: 2 etc.) after the translation of the Hebrew Bible into Greek, but also later, as in the end of the first century AD in John’s gospel (VII: 35) and Plutarch’s Moralia (II: 1105A). The first recorded use in the English language of this term appeared much later in 1876, with reference to the ‘[Moravian body’s] extensive 293 Culture & Identity PART 3 diaspora work (as it is termed) of evangelizing among the National Protestant Churches on the continent’ (‘diaspora’ in the Compact Edition of the Oxford English Dictionary, Vol.
