  • CYPRUS Cyprus in Your Heart
    CYPRUS Cyprus in your Heart Life is the Journey That You Make It It is often said that life is not only what you are given, but what you make of it. In the beautiful Mediterranean island of Cyprus, its warm inhabitants have truly taken the motto to heart. Whether it’s an elderly man who basks under the shade of a leafy lemon tree passionately playing a game of backgammon with his best friend in the village square, or a mother who busies herself making a range of homemade delicacies for the entire family to enjoy, passion and lust for life are experienced at every turn. And when glimpsing around a hidden corner, you can always expect the unexpected. Colourful orange groves surround stunning ancient ruins, rugged cliffs embrace idyllic calm turquoise waters, and shady pine covered mountains are brought to life with clusters of stone built villages begging to be explored. Amidst the wide diversity of cultural and natural heritage is a burgeoning cosmopolitan life boasting towns where glamorous restaurants sit side by side trendy boutiques, as winding old streets dotted with quaint taverns give way to contemporary galleries or artistic cafes. Sit down to take in all the splendour and you’ll be made to feel right at home as the locals warmly entice you to join their world where every visitor is made to feel like one of their own. 2 Beachside Splendour Meets Countryside Bliss Lovers of the Mediterranean often flock to the island of Aphrodite to catch their breath in a place where time stands still amidst the beauty of nature.

    Prof. Dr. Ata ATUN Araştırmacı - Yazar E-mail : [email protected] Mobil : 0548 871 1111 Garantiler Varken Neler Olmuştu Hatırlayalım Rum Kilisesi bir taraftan dini kisve altında, yasal veya hukuk dışı yollarla Kıbrıs adası üzerinde bulunan Türk topraklarına sahip çıkmaya çalışırken, diğer taraftan da Rum Hükümeti Türklerin azınlık olduğu karma yerleşim yerlerinde, silah zoru ile Türkleri bölgeden uzaklaştırmak ve topraklarını da Rumlara dağıtmak çabalarını başlatmıştı 20. Yüzyılın başında. Böylece kilise, nüfus çoğunluğunu ve taşınmaz mal mülkiyet gücünü elinde bulundurarak Adanın gerçek sahihi olan Türk toplumunu azınlık durumuna getirerek, ileri aşamalarda kovma, asimilasyon ve terör hareketleriyle bıktırmak suretiyle tüm adaya sahip çıkmayı hedeflemişti. Nitekim Kıbrıs’ın Osmanlı yönetiminde bulunduğu yıllarda bu tür girişimlerde bulunan kilise, İngiliz sömürge döneminde büsbütün azarak, Adanın Rumlaştırılmasında ön plana geçmiş ve etkin rol oynayan bir güç haline gelmiştir. Kıbrıs kilisesinin gerek Türk şahıslar elinden ve gerekse İngiliz sömürge yöneticilerini ayartarak hile ve desiselerle ada toprağından gasp ettikleri taşınmaz malların miktarı korkunç, boyutlardadır. Yazılı bazı Rumca kaynaklar en acı gerçekleri açıkça ortaya koymaktadırlar. İstanbul Başbakanlık Arşivi’nde yer alan “Kilise Mukataası ve Emval Defterleri”nde kayıtlı bulunan taşınmaz mal miktarları ile İngiliz sömürge yıllarına doğru kiliseler ve manastırlar adına kaydedilen taşınmaz mal miktarları arasında çok büyük rakam farkı olduğu bilinmektedir. 1821’li yıllarda başkaldırı olaylarında ön planda bulunan Kıbrıs Ortodoks Başpiskoposluğu’nun kendi arşivlerinde saklı bulundurduğu emlak kayıt defterleri ve taşınmaz mülkleri ile ilgili tutanaklar, oldukça karmaşık vaziyette ve de gizlilik içerisindedir. 21 Aralık 1963’de Akritas Planı uyarınca Rumların Türklere karşı başlattığı sistemli saldırılardan sonra Kıbrıslı Türkler, 50 yerleşim biriminden 1,000 dolayında konutu terk etmeye zorlanmışlardır.

It is not surprising that UNESCO included the Pafos antiquities, Choirokoitia and ten of the Byzantine period churches of Troodos in its list of World Heritage Sites. The aim of this publication is to help visitors discover the cultural heritage of Cyprus. The qualified personnel at any Information Office of the Cyprus Tourism Organisation (CTO) is happy to help organise your visit in the best possible way. Parallel to answering questions and enquiries, the Cyprus Tourism Organisation provides, free of charge, a wide range of publications, maps and other information material. Additional information is available at the CTO website: www.visitcyprus.com It is an unfortunate reality that a large part of the island’s cultural heritage has since July 1974 been under Turkish occupation.

  • History and Hybridity in the Trapeza Church Near Famagusta, Cyprus1
    ALLAN LANGDALE Historian of Art and Architecture University of California at Santa Cruz History and Hybridity in the Trapeza Church near Famagusta, Cyprus1 I—Introduction The church at Trapeza has been largely neglected in the art historical literature on medieval and early modern Cyprus, garnering only occasional attention from scholars in the field.2 This is surprising because it is one of Cyprus's most intrigu- ing and challenging structures. Moreover, it contains a significant example of me- dieval Cypriot mural art that has gone largely unstudied: a fragmentary Pantocrator in the earlier of the two domes of the church, possibly dating from the fourteenth century. This extraordinary fresco, even if partially ruined, deserves to take its place among the masterworks of medieval Cypriot art. Perhaps one reason that the church's architectural features have been overlooked is that there has typically been greater consideration accorded those Cypriot churches that contain notewor- thy mural art, either in fresco or mosaic.3 If such pictorial remnants have justified ancillary discussions of architecture in earlier scholarship, then the revelation of the Trapeza Pantocrator supplies ample validation for a more comprehensive study of the church's architectural style and history. The Trapeza church is a fascinating conundrum and its somewhat ungainly hybridity may have dampened the enthusiasm of researchers of previous eras. Camille Enlart was so underwhelmed that he wrote only a cursory description of it.4 However, the syncretism that once affronted the aesthetic refinement of earlier 1. I would like to thank Benjamin Arbel and Annemarie Weyl Carr for their generosity and advice on this article.

In a 1960 referendum, the three religious groups were asked to choose to belong to either the Greek Cypriot or the Turkish Cypriot community. They opted to belong to the Greek Cypriot community. The members of all three groups, therefore, enjoy the same privileges, rights and benefits as the members of the Greek Cypriot community, including voting rights, eligibility for public office and election to official government and state positions, at all levels.
