Q.Ne.ST DC2.5 Publications on Capitalized Best Practices and Routes Q.ne.S.T. DC2.5 Publications on Capitalized best practices and routes: revised reports and informative sheets on the capitalization activities on best practices and routes. Xanthi (Greece) _______________________ QNeST International Itineraries: Wine and Olive Oil Itinerary The theme of the Mediterranean Diet, with a particular focus on oil and wine, runs through all the countries of the EUSAIR area. The landscapes, characterised by olive groves and vineyards, bear witness to the common culture of the Euro-Mediterranean area, although each region has its own cultivars and production techniques. Oil and wine have always been used not just in food, but also in the rituals of the various belief systems practised on the shores of the Mediterranean. All the areas involved in the QNeST brand are crossed by routes linked to oil and wine. In Puglia, the greenways involving olive groves and vineyards are characterised by centuries-old monumental olive trees and olive oil mills, extensive vineyards and wineries. Along these routes in Xanthi, the olive trees stand out in all their majesty, while the wine route bears witness to the region's historic identity. The olive route in Epirus also highlights the bond between the centuries- old olive trees and the region. In the Marche region, the "Emotions without Borders" and "Experience the Region" routes allow you to discover the wealth of local heritage. The "Cycling through the Wineries" route allows you to enjoy the wineries in the Euganean Hills in Veneto in combination with the spas in the area. The vineyards and wineries of Montenegro are a constant theme of the "Historic and Natural treasure Route". Istria hosts routes in both Croatia and Slovenia; in the former on the themes of olive oil, wine and ham, a characteristic local product, and in the latter on stone, the coast and olive groves. Travellers, merchants and pilgrims The Mediterranean is a sea enclosed by land, since time immemorial connecting the various cultures that have evolved along its shores. Since ancient times, this sea has been crossed by peoples, merchants, pilgrims and travellers of all kinds, carrying with them cultural baggage and experiences that have shaped its regions, traditions, languages and cultures. The QNeST Brand promotes cultural activities via specific itineraries. The Via Francigena Greenway runs through the Salento peninsula in Puglia, offering "slow tourism" activities that allow the visitor to discover hidden treasures and ancient traditions between Brindisi and Otranto, following the routes of ancient travellers who embarked for the Orient. Closely connected to this theme is "The Way to Jerusalem" in the region of Xanthi, in Greece, while in Epirus, religious heritage routes highlight the Byzantine monasteries. In the Marches, the "Gira- Sole" project promotes cultural activities in the area of Pesaro. In Veneto, the "Literary Park of the Euganean Hills" hosts locations that have inspired poets and writers, while other routes allow the visitor to admire the splendid Venetian villas and castles along the River Brenta. In Montenegro the Virpazar and Skadar Lake National Park route includes landscapes, monuments and flavours around Skadar Lake Dry Stone Traditional dry-stone building techniques, recognised by UNESCO as World Heritage, are another shared feature of the regions surrounding the Mediterranean Sea. The QNeST Brand promotes routes connected to this important theme: used to build boundary walls, small circular buildings of various kinds, retaining walls for agricultural terraces and underground places of worship, the stones tell the history of the locations where they are deployed. The Dry Stones Greenways in Puglia are based on the importance of stone and its use in boundary walls, buildings, underground oil mills, crypts and rock-cut settlements. In the region of Xanthi, "Myths and Culture" is a historical and cultural tourist route linked to the myth of Hercules. In Epirus, the Stone Route runs through the mountain villages of Pindos. In Istria, the Stone Walls route showcases the rural area of Vodnjan, where stone is a key element of the landscape. In Montenegro, the Njegusi village and Lovćen National Park route takes the visitor on a spectacular journey from Kotor, on the coast, to the mountains inland, with an opportunity to enjoy the distinctive flavours of the local food and wine of Njegusi. Water Water is something that the countries of the Adriatic-Ionian area all share. In terms of nature, it includes wetlands, springs, rivers and lakes both near the coasts and inland. In terms of human activity, it plays a role in religious rites, gastronomic traditions and even health, as seen in the use of thermal spring waters since ancient times. This is reflected in the proximity of places of worship, cisterns, canals and spas, evidence of the day-to-day link between water and the human population. Then there is the sea, which, in addition to forming a vast ecosystem and a shared asset for the various populations, over time has enabled them to communicate with each other thanks to the art of navigation. In Puglia there are water-themed greenways in the coastal area from the archaeological park of Egnatia to the Alimini Lakes near Otranto, characterised by a mosaic of wetlands, ancient archaeological sites and spas. In the Veneto region, the Euganean Hills and Spas Area Brand combines thermal spring waters with local food and wine. In the Marche region, a route starts from the coast near Fano, before heading inland along the Furlo Gorge to the "Grotta dei folletti" in Acqualagna. Montenegro proposes a boat trip to discover the natural and cultural heritage of Lake Skadar. Lastly, Epirus proposes the "National Parks of Epirus" network, rich in natural ecosystems and beautiful landscapes. QNeST Local Routes: Routes of the Olive Tree The presence of the olive has marked not only the landscape but also the everyday lives of the Mediterranean peoples. As a mythical and sacred tree, it is associated with their rites and customs and has influenced their lifestyles, creating a specific ancient civilisation, the "olive tree civilisation": The Routes of the Olive Tree follow in the footsteps of the Olive Tree Civilisation, from Greece towards the Euro-Mediterranean countries. Myths & Culture The development of a touristic and cultural route can create a global tourism product that will support the tourism and economic development of the Mediterranean. This entire historic route, infrastructure, emblematic buildings, economic boom, as well as the cooperation between the countries, should be imprinted, take concrete form and attribute to a cultural, social and economic level (tourism). In the context of implementing the Tourist and Cultural Route “Labours of Hercules”, a new cultural – tourist product should be created, which will highlight the cross-border area and be able to offer modern services to tourists. The project aims to create a cultural – tourist Mediterranean Route with sub-routes across project countries, which will link areas where Hercules made his labours. The ultimate goal is the establishment of a structure that will preserve the whole social cultural economic life of the whole Mediterranean region in terms of infrastructure, culture, economy, but also create added value with a product that had a past, present and future for this specific geographic entity. Wine Route The wine map of Xanthi (Prefecture) is dominated by the vineyard of Abdera. The area is part of the Dionysos Wine Route and focuses on the interest in wine and cultural tourism which is combined with the Archaeological Site, the Byzantine Polystylos and the Archaeological Museum of Abdera and create an unforgettable trip to each visitor. Way to Jerusalem In the early byzantine era, journeys were rare. Most travelers abandoned their countries only by necessity and for occupational, political, social and religious causes. They were mercenaries, soldiers and sailors, who were participating in military operations at the area of Danube River, Mesopotamia or West, diplomats who visited the Persian palace and Barbarian overlords of the steppe or of the German kingdoms, national officials who visited provinces, merchants, refugees, exiles and finally, bishops who participated in local or Ecumenical Councils. Pilgrims, who reached Holy Lands without compulsion or immediate need, were the only exception. QNeST Brand Member: _______________________ Anatolikos Vineyards - Nikolaidis Bros - Xanthi Activity: Farming The private vineyard located at the lands of Avdira,Xanthi, in Thrace. In Avdira city, being known from ancient times as a city of Thrace, begun the struggle for the revival of the well-famous ancient vineyard in 2000. Contributing in this initiative, the copmany AFOI NIKOLAIDI O.E. started the farming of greek and foreign grape variety at 2005. The vineyard’s location on the dry hills of Avdira city, with an altitude of 50-70 meters and approximately 2 km away from the Thrace Sea, the sandy terrain, the continuous cool winds and Avdira’s microclimate contribute desicively in manufacturing high-quality products. Today, the company has released 7 labels of Varietal and PGE Avdira certified bio-wine with the commercial trademark ΑΝΑΤΟLΙΚΟS VINEYARDS and continues it’s developmental program aiming in the vineyard’s expansion, always according to the principals of bio-agriculture, growing traditional grape varieties from the lands of Avdira and Thrace, and futhermore, developing the structure of the distribution channels in Greece and overseas.

  • The Statistical Battle for the Population of Greek Macedonia
    XII. The Statistical Battle for the Population of Greek Macedonia by Iakovos D. Michailidis Most of the reports on Greece published by international organisations in the early 1990s spoke of the existence of 200,000 “Macedonians” in the northern part of the country. This “reasonable number”, in the words of the Greek section of the Minority Rights Group, heightened the confusion regarding the Macedonian Question and fuelled insecurity in Greece’s northern provinces.1 This in itself would be of minor importance if the authors of these reports had not insisted on citing statistics from the turn of the century to prove their points: mustering historical ethnological arguments inevitably strengthened the force of their own case and excited the interest of the historians. Tak- ing these reports as its starting-point, this present study will attempt an historical retrospective of the historiography of the early years of the century and a scientific tour d’horizon of the statistics – Greek, Slav and Western European – of that period, and thus endeavour to assess the accuracy of the arguments drawn from them. For Greece, the first three decades of the 20th century were a long period of tur- moil and change. Greek Macedonia at the end of the 1920s presented a totally different picture to that of the immediate post-Liberation period, just after the Balkan Wars. This was due on the one hand to the profound economic and social changes that followed its incorporation into Greece and on the other to the continual and extensive population shifts that marked that period. As has been noted, no fewer than 17 major population movements took place in Macedonia between 1913 and 1925.2 Of these, the most sig- nificant were the Greek-Bulgarian and the Greek-Turkish exchanges of population under the terms, respectively, of the 1919 Treaty of Neuilly and the 1923 Lausanne Convention.

  • Staatlich-Nationale Erinnerungskultur in Griechisch-Thrakien
    Staatlich-nationale Erinnerungskultur in Griechisch-Thrakien CAY LIENAU (Münster) Einleitung Erinnerungskultur wird von mir als formaler Oberbegriff verstanden für alle denkbaren Formen der bewussten Erinnerung bzw. des bewussten Erinnerns und Nichterinnerns an historische Ereignisse, Persönlichkeiten und Prozesse.1 Auf solche Formen des Erinnerns und Nichterinnerns – auch das Ausblenden von Personen und historischen Ereignissen gehört zur Erinnerungskultur – soll am Beispiel von Griechisch-Thrakien (= Westthrakien) eingegangen werden. In diesem ethnisch und religiös gemischten Gebiet werden spezifische Züge staatlich-nationaler Erinnerungskultur besonders deutlich. Die Ausführungen beziehen sich v.a. auf die öffentliche (staatlich-nationale und kommunale) Erinnerungskultur, während auf die private Erinnerungskultur und die Traditionspflege der verschiedenen Volks- und Religionsgruppen nur am Rande eingegangen wird. Behandelt werden soll das Thema an Beispielen von • Orts- und Straßennamen • Denkmälern • Baudenkmälern und Museen • der Darstellung des Raumes und seiner Geschichte in offiziellen Publi- kationen. Zur Geographie und Geschichte Griechisch-Thrakiens Im äußersten Nordosten Griechenlands gelegen, ist Griechisch-Thrakien Teil der historischen Region Thrakien, zu der große Teile des östlichen und südli- chen Bulgarien und die europäische Türkei (= Ostthrakien) gehören.2 Im Westen bildet der Nestos (bulg.

However, large-scale analyses to examine operational aspects of implementing different forest management scenarios to meet fire governance objectives are nonexistent for many Mediterranean countries. In this study we described an optimization framework to build forest management scenarios that leverages fire simulation, forest management, and tradeoff analyses for forest areas in Macedonia, Greece. We demonstrated the framework to evaluate five Citation: Palaiologou, P.; forest management priorities aimed at (1) protection of developed areas, (2) optimized commercial Kalabokidis, K.; Ager, A.A.; timber harvests, (3) protection of ecosystem services, (4) fire resilience, and (5) reducing suppression Galatsidas, S.; Papalampros, L.; Day, difficulty.

  • Music and Traditions of Thrace (Greece): a Trans-Cultural Teaching Tool 1
    MUSIC AND TRADITIONS OF THRACE (GREECE): A TRANS-CULTURAL TEACHING TOOL 1 Kalliopi Stiga 2 Evangelia Kopsalidou 3 Abstract: The geopolitical location as well as the historical itinerary of Greece into time turned the country into a meeting place of the European, the Northern African and the Middle-Eastern cultures. Fables, beliefs and religious ceremonies, linguistic elements, traditional dances and music of different regions of Hellenic space testify this cultural convergence. One of these regions is Thrace. The aim of this paper is firstly, to deal with the music and the dances of Thrace and to highlight through them both the Balkan and the middle-eastern influence. Secondly, through a listing of music lessons that we have realized over the last years, in schools and universities of modern Thrace, we are going to prove if music is or not a useful communication tool – an international language – for pupils and students in Thrace. Finally, we will study the influence of these different “traditions” on pupils and students’ behavior. Key words: Thrace; music; dances; multi-cultural influence; national identity; trans-cultural teaching Resumo: A localização geopolítica, bem como o itinerário histórico da Grécia através do tempo, transformou o país num lugar de encontro das culturas europeias, norte-africanas e do Médio Oriente. Fábulas, crenças e cerimónias religiosas, elementos linguísticos, danças tradicionais e a música das diferentes regiões do espaço helénico são testemunho desta convergência cultural. Uma destas regiões é a Trácia. O objectivo deste artigo é, em primeiro lugar, tratar da música e das danças da Trácia e destacar através delas as influências tanto dos Balcãs como do Médio Oriente.
