  • Crete Restaurant Guide
    MEETand EAT inCRETE FINE DINING GUIDE 2008 SUMMER FREE from LETTER the EDITOR THERE'S MORE TO CRETAN CUISINE THAN LUKE-WARM MOUSSAKA… I've long held the belief that quite often food is the point of entry into the core of a country's culture, and for many, a country's cuisine is the primary reason for visiting a destination. Eating what and where the locals eat is a great way to scratch below the surface of a country, to understand its history and to become a part of its community. A summertime visit to a Greek Island offers many opportunities unique to this time of year. This is when home-grown produce is at its peak-bursting with color and flavor. And you will find no better location to indulge in this foodfest than Crete. Always celebrated as a tourist destination for beaches and antiquities, the Island, a treasure trove of wild foods and deeply rooted cooking traditions, is becoming a foodie hotspot, which could rival many of the European capitals in the gourmet game. But finding a great meal here on the Mediterranean's 5th largest island is not an easy task, which is why Meet and Eat in Crete was created-to help you go out of the way and off the tourist track. New to the Guide this summer is a selection of some of our top chosen tavernas in and around the island. As an antidote to the ubiquitous beach scene, try one of our agrotourism tavernas in a breathtaking mountain village, such as Prinos in Ano Asites.

  • Kriegsverbrechen Der Nazis
    Kriegsverbrechen der Nazis Verbrechen der Wehrmacht (aus Wikipedia) Als Verbrechen der Wehrmacht werden Verbrechen bezeichnet, die Angehörige der Wehrmacht im Zweiten Weltkrieg begangen haben. Zu ihnen gehören Planung und Durchführung von Angriffs- und Vernichtungskrieg, Massenmorde an Zivilisten und als Partisanen Verdächtigten, Misshandlung und Ermordung von Kriegsgefangenen, Besatzungsverbrechen sowie die direkte und indirekte Teilnahme an Völkermorden, darunter dem Holocaust und dem Porajmos. Die Wehrmachtführung erliess verbrecherische Befehle, die gegen Normen des Kriegsvölkerrechts (Genfer Konventionen, Haager Landkriegsordnung und Gepflogenheiten des Krieges) verstiessen. Die juristische und politische Aufarbeitung dieser Verbrechen ist bis heute nicht abgeschlossen. In NS-Prozessen seit 1945 wurden nur wenige Verbrechen der Wehrmacht verhandelt. Sie wurden in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland lange öffentlich bestritten oder verharmlost, ihre Strafverfolgung verschleppt und behindert. Wie viele einfache Soldaten an ihnen beteiligt waren, die Opferzahlen und die Motive der Täter sind bis heute umstritten. Verbrechensbereiche Verbrechen der Wehrmacht verteilen sich auf die Vorbereitung eines Angriffskriegs, der auf Vernichtung zielte, und tödliche Begleiterscheinungen und Folgen der Kriegführung. Ersteres geschah vor allem in Bezug auf Osteuropa, Letzteres geschah in und nach allen Eroberungskriegen der Wehrmacht, zuletzt auch beim Rückzug deutscher Truppen im "Altreich". Die Verbrechen erfolgten hauptsächlich in folgenden Bereichen:

  • Regional Settlement Patterns, Exchange Systems and Sources of Powerin Crete at the End of the Late Bronze Age: Establishing a Connection
    REGIONAL SETTLEMENT PATTERNS, EXCHANGE SYSTEMS AND SOURCES OF POWERIN CRETE AT THE END OF THE LATE BRONZE AGE: ESTABLISHING A CONNECTION by EUSABETTA BORGNA 1. - INTRODUCTION The traditional debate on the end of the Bronze Age and the transition to the Iron Age in Crete has been fuelled in recent years by new contributions adopting new theoretical perspectives and specific fieldwork practices, such as in particular regional surveys '. The purpose of this paper is to integrate certain recent indications with the preliminary results of a research project based on the analysis of the material culture coming from a single Late Bronze Age Cretan site, namely Phaistos in south-central Crete (Borgna 2001; 2003b, with literature). The data to be placed into a broader framework will, hopefully, serve to furnish a pattern for both the regional distribution of the population and the socio-economic relationships among the settlements and districts of Crete at the close of the Late Bronze Age. Some observations emerging from the scholarly dicussion arising out of a specific Cretan perspective, together with an Aegean Mediterranean view, have provided the investigation with theoretical premises and analytical basis. These can be summarized as follows: - In opposition to a generalizing explanation for Dark Age Crete, D. Haggis (1993; 2001; 2002) has reiterated the usefulness of a contextual analysis aiming at focusing on diversified regional realities. Furthermore, he has applied the concept of socio-economic "integration" to cultural frameworks and population layouts which, during the development of Minoan societies and in particular in the Prepalatial period, were unaffetcted by the control of central authorities.
