Conference Archives of Healthcare Institutions: History and Documentation Conference Archives of healthcare institutions: history and documentation Organised by: General State Archives, Historical Archive of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Historical Archive of the Municipality of Athens and Network for the History of Health 25–27 April 2018 Athens, General State Archives, 61 Dafnis St., Psychiko ABSTRACTS Anoyatis-Pelé, Dimitris and Tsiamis, Costas, Sotiria Hospital, Parnitha Sanatorium, Penteli Sanatorium: the records of patients as a demographic, historical and medical source The study presents the records of the patients from three sanatoriums in Athens (Sotiria, Parnitha, Penteli) as an example of demographic, historical and medical information. The records cover the Interwar period and provide us with demographic (gender, age, place of origin, place of residence, marital status, occupation) and medical (diagnoses, outcomes, time of hospitalization) aspects of tuberculosis. In fact, the three sanatoriums reflect different social classes but with a common characteristic: all are vulnerable to the same disease. The records of the patients are a valuable source of study and provide us with data of social and economic interest Antonopoulou, Zetta, The historical records of the Athens Municipal Hospital “ELPIS” The ELPIS Municipal Hospital was the first hospital in the young capital. Since its founding (1842) and throughout its long history, it has played an important role in the health of citizens, the development of science and the medical capabilities of the country. Managed administratively by the City of Athens for more than a century, the hospital treated equally civilians, war-wounded, refugees and thousands of anonymous poor in difficult historical periods, as during the German Occupation. Its familiar, accessible character continues to this day. Is it the same with its historical records? Do they reveal the legendary history of the hospital? Are they accessible? What kind of actions have been taken in the past for their preservation and what do we deduce from that experience? Having in mind the above questions, this paper seeks to raise archival management issues. The case of ELPIS could be a case study, with negative and positive extensions, with stops and restarts. While the Historical Archives of the City of Athens show 1 strong interest and at the same time the Hospital Administration and staff adopted a model of self-management to highlight its history, there seems to be some hope for the Municipal Hospital archival heritage. Antonopoulou, Zetta and Sfika, Vassiliki, Healthcare in local government. The “Metropolitan” example From the formation of the municipality of Athens till now, healthcare has been a priority of action, in an individual and collective level, particularly driven by the need and permitted by the institutional role of local governments. In an area that was being ambitiously transformed into a capital, priority was given to the infrastructure regarding hygiene improvement. At the same time, more and more initiatives were being taken in order to ensure that citizens enjoy good health. Under this prospect, the municipality has occasionally taken on an active role in safeguarding health, that did not focus strictly on the geographical boundaries of the capital. Actions have been linked to European and global developments, as well as to the official state healthcare policy, thus highlighting the metropolitan role of the municipality of Athens. The paper is a first approach to health-related decisions of the City Council of Athens, from 1841 until the middle of the 20th century. Unique testimonies of the municipality's formal policy, highlight the still unexplored historical field of local government. In the end, they answer the question: what does "health" mean to a municipality? Bacharas, Dimitris, The health-related archives in ELIA-MIET / Les archives de ELIA-MIET sur la santé Dans le cadre de cette intervention nous allons présenter les archives situés dans les collections de ELIA-MIET qui concernent le domaine de la santé. Ce genre d’archives sont principalement des archives privés (i.e. Le fond d’archives du pharmacien Karzis ou de Krinos), mais aussi des archives d’institutions comme le sanatorium Evangelismos, la Clinique Gynécologique de Sofianopoulos ou le Iatrosynedrio (Conseil National des médecins). Parallèlement, nous allons présenter aussi des archives utiles à la collection d’information sur le domaine de la santé en général, comme des guides commerciaux d’Athènes et de Pirée ou des factures de pharmacies, docteurs, etc.xt Barlagiannis, Thanasis, Police and health during king Otto's reign: an archival approach How does police relate to health? This paradoxical relationship is better understood through a thorough study in the archives. A great deal of information, concerning the sanitary personnel, the aims and the function of public hygiene in king Otto's Greece, is included in what was then called medical police. The paper aspires to highlight the importance of this structure and to present its primary sources, which are scattered in the central as well as the municipal level. Bournova, Evgenia, The archive of the Medical Association of Athens: exploring the formation of the medical body The Medical Association of Athens, established under Legislative Decree of 17 October 1923, 2 entered into operation in 1924. Its archive contains the Proceedings of the Board of Directors and General Meetings as well as the personal records of its members, which bear an Association registration date from 1937 onwards. These two large records allow us to study the composition of the medical body in Greece since the end of the 19th century, doctors' attitude towards health legislation and their social role and to follow the paths of Greek doctors through their studies, the changes of place of practice in the country and the capital, as well as their professional and social trajectories. Chatzimichail, Ipakoi, The First Aid Station of the Assistance Department of the Greek Red Cross (1931–1995): approaches to the archive through the eyes of a researcher This is a presentation of the archive of the First Aid Station, the most important service of the Assistance Department of the Red Cross. The archive covers the period of 1931–1995 and was acquired by the General State Archives in November 2010. The purpose of this presentation is mostly to highlight the characteristics of the First Aid Station by showing its work, as evidenced in the archive, especially during the first forty years of its function. In parallel, there are statistical remarks about the varied numbers of the injured and patients. At times, depending also on the increase of the population and on the social needs (as during the war, or the German Occupation), there were the services housed at the Station itself, like infirmaries, surgeries, x-ray laboratories, a medical guidance provision service to seamen. But in addition to those, special external services were organized, like Stations by the sea for swimmers in the summer and improvised Stations for the care of participants in celebrations and sports events. The contribution of the First Aid Station was just as highly significant for missions both in Greece and abroad in the cases of earthquakes or floods, of repatriating hostages and military men, as well as of transporting children to charities, so-called Childtowns (Paidopoleis). Chekimoglou, Evangelos, The religious communities of Thessaloniki as healthcare providing institutions: their archival remnants This paper presents: (a). Institutions established by the Greek Orthodox Christian community (18th c. – 1926) and the Jewish community (ca. 1900–1943) to provide healthcare for their members. (b). Information about the archival remnants of these institutions. The Greek Orthodox Christian community was the first to develop healthcare institutions, starting at least in the 17th century. In the 19th century, as long as Thessaloniki was suffering from the plague, a special hospital for the plague victims was in use besides the general hospital, which later developed into the modern Theageneion Anticancer Hospital. The Jewish community established, at least since the 19th century, Bikur Holim, which was an institution to secure healthcare for the poor Jews. In the 20th century Hospital Hirsch and a madhouse (Azilo de Locos) were also established. Surviving archival material concerning the healthcare institutions of the Greek community consist of the modern part (20th century) of the Theageneion Hospital; some pieces of information in regard with the performance and the premises of this hospital (starting from 19th century) may also be found in other archives. The archival material in regard with the healthcare institutions of the Jewish community is divided among the four known parts of the communal archive, which are located in Thessaloniki, New York, Jerusalem and Moscow respectively. 3 In regard with Bikur Holim, mainly financial statements and reports dated in the 1920s and 1930s survive in all four parts of the communal archive. In Thessaloniki’s part a report on the history of Bikur Holim also survives. In regard with the Hirsch Hospital, financial statements survive as well as a report on the history of the Hospital in Thessaloniki. Analytical expenses records concerning Azilo des Locos also survive in Thessaloniki. At the same location, information concerning the personnel of the Jewish healthcare institutions as well as correspondence for all of them survive, dated in the 1920s and 1930s. With the exception of the documents compiled in the years just before WWII, all the others have been compiled in Judesmo, i.e. Judeo-espagnol, handwritten in the Hebrew alphabet. Dimitropoulou, Myrto and Bournova, Evgenia, The Civil Act Registry as a source for the history of health For researchers of social history and historical demography, civil acts registry is a classic primary source. The reason is that they include the three major events in every person's life: birth, marriage, and death. Consequently, the archive provides the possibility to study people’s trajectory that they were born, lived and died in Athens.

  • Wanaks and Related Power Terms in Mycenaean and Later Greek
    2 WANAKS AND RELATED POWER TERMS IN MYCENAEAN AND LATER GREEK Thomas G Palaima There have been numerous advances in scholarship 1 (since Carlier, Royaute and 2 Palaima 1995 ) affecting the interpretation of the two lexical items (wa-na-ka = later wanaks and qa-si-re-u = later basileus) and related terms (e.g., lawagetas and e-ke-ra 2-wo) associated with the concept 'king' within Greek language and culture. Here I shall deal with them systematically under various subject headings that I hope are more than arbitrary. My main aim is to demonstrate that the most recently proposed etymologies of the term wanaks either confuse the functions of the wanaks within the Mycenaean texts for the essential meaning (and ideologi­ cal basis) of the word itself or are attractive as explanations for the meaning of the term, but ultimately unconvincing in accounting for its history. I argue that the essential meaning of the wanaks has to do, as in Hittite, with 'birth , begetting and fertility' and then with 'lineage'. 3 I then discuss many aspects of the attested functions of the wanaks in Mycenaean society. THE ETYMOLOGY OF WA-NA-KA, QA-SI-RE-U AND E-KE-RAi-WO: LINEAR B, HITTITE AND HOMER There are no convincing, that is, widely accepted, lndo-European etymologies of the Mycenaean terms wa-na-ka (later Greek civa~) and qa-si-re-u (later Greek I dedicate this paper to the late Kees Ruijgh whose scholarly erudition , integrity , deep human­ ity and generosity are sorely missed by all of us who still work at the Mycenaean texts that he understood so deeply and explicated so clearly.

Description: This course will explore the earliest readable documents in western civilization, the texts of clay tablets, sealings and labels (and a few transport vases) written in a pre-alphabetic script known as Linear B. Linear B was used by the inhabitants of the Mycenaean palatial culture of mainland Greece and the island of Crete from 1400 BCE (and perhaps earlier) until the collapse of this form of high culture ca. 1200 BCE. These texts preserve our earliest examples of the Greek language, pre-dating our earliest alphabetic texts (inscriptions and literary texts) by over four centuries. Formative aims: The aims of this course are five: 1/ To familiarize ourselves with the structure of Linear B script in relationship to other writing systems used to represent Greek (i.e., the Cypriote Syllabic Script and the Greek alphabet) and to consider how well Linear B worked as a vehicle for recording Greek as 'visible speech'; 2/ To understand the syntax and system of communication of the ca.

This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract Greece’s economic crisis has deepened despite the measures taken by the international commu- nity in 2010. The Greek economy shrank by 20% between 2008 and 2012 without evidence of growth in 2014. The unemployment was 24.3% in 2012 (7.7% in 2008) and now the maximum rate of long-term unemployment went up to 14.4% [1]. The growing pressure from the Greek gov- ernments especially the hospitals budget cuts creates pressure on the effectiveness and efficiency, devastating the Greek healthcare system. Economic crisis in combination with the continuous growth of hospital costs services on one hand and the pressure by patients themselves for lower cost and better treatment on the other, has driven governments in Greece, to restructure the hos- pital sector (known as “hospital mergers”).

We aimed to estimate prevalence and age at diagnosis in Greece, where no large-scale prevalence study has ever been conducted. Aggregate data were collected on ASD diagnoses by gender and calendar year of diagnosis up to 2019, for children born in 2008 and 2009, from the Centers for Educational and Counseling Support, which evaluate children to receive special educational support in school. Coverage was 87.1% of centers and 88.1% of schoolchildren born in 2008–9. ASD prevalence overall was 1.15% (1.83% males, 0.44% females; ratio 4.14:1), ranging from 0.59% to 1.50% in Greece’s 13 regions. In five regions, prevalence differed significantly between centers.

The overall objective of the ENIGMMA 2 project is to contribute to the sustainable enhancement of mobility and people-to-people contacts between the EU and Georgia. The study follows the specific objective of the Component 2 of the project to implement joint measures to mitigate, target and address identified and possible migration related risks of visa liberalisation in Georgia and the EU Member States by providing support to Georgian migrants abroad. To this end, the report describes the existing provisions of the national migration legislation in the three destination countries - EU MS (Greece, Italy and Spain), and analyses the profile of Georgian diaspora, including their expressed needs, interests and challenges. Further, the study discusses how the situation of Georgian migrants in three destination countries has changed after the enactment of the visa-free regime between Schengen countries and Georgia. The study is based on the desk research, information gathered during the assessment and exchange missions to Greece, Italy and Spain, meetings with the national stakeholders in Georgia and destination countries, interviews and focus group discussions with the representatives of Georgian diaspora organisations and active diaspora
