    EUROPEAN COMMISSION PRESS RELEASE Brussels, 23 April 2013 Mergers: Commission opens in-depth investigation into proposed acquisition of Olympic Air by Aegean Airlines The European Commission has opened an in-depth investigation under the EU Merger Regulation into the proposed acquisition of Olympic Air by Aegean Airlines. The companies are the two main Greek airlines offering passenger air transport services on Greek domestic and international routes. Each of the companies operates a base at Athens International Airport. The Commission has concerns that the transaction may lead to price increases and poorer service on several domestic Greek routes out of Athens, where the merged entity would have a monopoly or an otherwise strong market position. The opening of an in-depth inquiry does not prejudge the outcome of the investigation. The Commission now has 90 working days, until 3 September 2013, to take a decision on whether the proposed transaction would significantly impede effective competition in the European Economic Area (EEA). Commission Vice President in charge of competition policy Joaquín Almunia said: "We have the duty to ensure that Greek passengers and people visiting Greece can travel at competitive air fares, even more so during challenging economic times." The Commission’s initial market investigation indicated that the proposed transaction raises serious competition concerns on a number of Greek domestic routes where Aegean and Olympic currently compete or are well placed to compete. These routes are used not only by Greek passengers, but also by a large number of foreign travellers, given the popularity of Greece as a tourist destination. The Commission's assessment takes account of relevant factors, such as the state of the Greek economy and the financial situation of the parties.

SAKKAS, G. CHOULIARAS ATHENS, 3/7/2017 On 12 June 2017 (12:28 GMT) an offshore destructive earthquake occurred approximately 15 km south of the SE coast of Lesvos Island, NE of Chios. There was one fatality in Vrissa village, caused by building collapse and fifteen people were injured due to collapsing buildings and falling debris. Damage was widespread throughout the southeastern part of Lesvos (damage is reported in at least 12 villages) whereas effects have been also observed at the Turkish coast. Based on the final list of the first round of buildings’ formal inspections of 1986 buildings, 871 were found safe and 1115 unsafeforuse. Heaviest damage was reported in the village of Vrissa and it was rapidly assessed by using of modern and innovative technologies and methodologies including Unmanned Aerial Vehicles and GIS online applications. About 80% of its buildings, most of them traditional stone masonry residential constructions built by the end of the 19th century or the beginning of the 20th century were damaged. Several collapsed while many were heavily damaged, reported dangerous and/orunrepairable.

    POLIS. Revista de ideas y formas políticas de la Antigüedad Clásica 12,1999, pp. 181-228 PUBLIC AND PRÍVATE Konstantinos Mantas Athens A. ABSTRACT In this article we will try to give an answer to the question of changes in the visibility of women in the public sphere. The fact that élite women played a more energetic role in public life firom the late Hellenistic epoch on has been established by our research on the available sources (mostly epigraphical) in some regions of the Greco-Roman East, in particular W. Asia Minor (lonia and Caria) and in Aegean islands such as Lesbos, Chios, Samos, Teños, Syros and Paros. Nevertheless, the inscriptions, being brief summaries of the decrees which were put in the archives, fail to comment on the issue of the honorand's actual fiílfilment of the office, though sometimes they give indirect information on the lady's presence, eg in the stadium. But even if the female raagistrates were visible, did that have any effect on other women? Did the free, or at least the citizen women in the cities of the Román East enjoy more freedom in their raovement outside the oikos? Could women move freely in the agora, the theatre or any other public place? And if they did so, what about their mingling with men and regulations about their clothes and personal behaviour? Literature is important on that subject because it provides indirect information on all the aspects of the problem, but the archaising style and subject matter of many 181 Public and Prívate literary works, the hallmark of the Second Sophistic, throws doubt on their relevance to the era in which our research is located.

    Synoikism, Urbanization, and Empire in the Early Hellenistic Period by Ryan Anthony Boehm A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Ancient History and Mediterranean Archaeology in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Emily Mackil, Chair Professor Erich Gruen Professor Mark Griffith Spring 2011 Copyright © Ryan Anthony Boehm, 2011 ABSTRACT SYNOIKISM, URBANIZATION, AND EMPIRE IN THE EARLY HELLENISTIC PERIOD by Ryan Anthony Boehm Doctor of Philosophy in Ancient History and Mediterranean Archaeology University of California, Berkeley Professor Emily Mackil, Chair This dissertation, entitled “Synoikism, Urbanization, and Empire in the Early Hellenistic Period,” seeks to present a new approach to understanding the dynamic interaction between imperial powers and cities following the Macedonian conquest of Greece and Asia Minor. Rather than constructing a political narrative of the period, I focus on the role of reshaping urban centers and regional landscapes in the creation of empire in Greece and western Asia Minor. This period was marked by the rapid creation of new cities, major settlement and demographic shifts, and the reorganization, consolidation, or destruction of existing settlements and the urbanization of previously under- exploited regions. I analyze the complexities of this phenomenon across four frameworks: shifting settlement patterns, the regional and royal economy, civic religion, and the articulation of a new order in architectural and urban space. The introduction poses the central problem of the interrelationship between urbanization and imperial control and sets out the methodology of my dissertation. After briefly reviewing and critiquing previous approaches to this topic, which have focused mainly on creating catalogues, I point to the gains that can be made by shifting the focus to social and economic structures and asking more specific interpretive questions.

International Law places upon an occupying power the obligation and responsibility for establishing government and maintaining civil order in the areas occupied. The basic purposes of civil affairs officers are thus (l) to as- sist the Commanding General of the combat units by quickly establishing those orderly conditions which will contribute most effectively to the conduct of military operations, (2) to reduce to a minimum the human suffering and the material damage resulting from disorder and (3) to create the conditions which will make it possible for civilian agencies to function effectively. The preparation of Civil Affairs Handbooks is a part of the effort of the War Department to carry out this obligation as efficiently and humanely as is possible. The Handbooks do not deal with planning or policy. They are rather ready reference source books of the basic factual information needed for planning and policy making. Public Health and Sanitation in Greece. As a result of the various occupations, Greece presents some extremely difficult problems in health and sanitation. The material in this section was largely prepared by the MILBANK MEMORIAL FUND and the MEDICAL INTELLI- GENCE BRANCH OF THE OFFICE OF THE SURGEON GENERAL.

    Caesar and Mytilene Sherk, Robert K Greek, Roman and Byzantine Studies; Summer 1963; 4, 3; ProQuest pg. 145 Caesar and Mytilene Robert K. Sherk OTAMON OF MYTILENE, son of the philosopher Lesbonax, was an P orator of high repute among the citizens of Mytilene in the age of Julius Caesar and Augustus.! His reputation rested not only on his oratorical abilities and published works but also on his states­ manlike qualities and personal service to his city. On at least three occasions, and possibly many more, he was selected to represent the city of Mytilene on very important missions to the Roman govern­ ment. It was a common practice to select orators, philosophers, sophists and others of high intellectual achievement to act as envoys to foreign states, and Potamon was eminently successfu1.2 He was also very well known and respected in foreign cities, including Rome.3 His diplomatic successes appear to have been most notable in the role he played as leader of embassies to Rome and elsewhere in the troubled period after Pharsalus and in the early years of Augustus. The final honor of a public monument on the acropolis of Mytilene was granted to him as a fitting reward for his many fine services. On the face of the marble blocks of this great monument a grateful city had inscribed copies of the official documents which mentioned his name or activities. The structure remained in place until some 1 See W. Stegemann in RE s.v. Potamon, cols. 1023-1027, to whose bibliography should be added Rostovtzeff, SEHHW III, p.

    Island Studies Journal, Vol. 12, No. 1, 2017, 71-94 Sustainable local development on Aegean Islands: a meta-analysis of the literature Sofia Karampela University of the Aegean, Mytilini, Greece [email protected] Charoula Papazoglou University of the Aegean, Mytilini, Greece [email protected] Thanasis Kizos University of the Aegean, Mytilini, Greece [email protected] and Ioannis Spilanis University of the Aegean, Mytilini, Greece [email protected] ABSTRACT: Sustainable local development is central to debates on socioeconomic and environmental change. Although the meaning of sustainable local development is disputed, the concept is frequently applied to island cases. Studies have recently been made of many local development initiatives in different contexts, with various methods and results. These experiences can provide valuable input on planning, managing, and evaluating sustainable local development on islands. This paper provides a literature review of positive and negative examples of sustainable local development for the Aegean Islands, Greece. Out of an initial 1,562 papers, 80 papers made the final selection based on theme, empirical approach, and recency. The results demonstrate a wide thematic variety in research topics, with tourism, agriculture, and energy being the most frequent themes, while integrated frameworks are largely absent. The literature includes a wide range of methods, from quantitative approaches with indicators and indexes to qualitative assessments, which blurs overall assessments in many instances. Keywords: Aegean islands, economy, environment, sustainable local development, meta-analysis https://doi.org/10.24043/isj.6 © 2017 – Institute of Island Studies, University of Prince Edward Island, Canada. 1. Introduction Sustainability and sustainable development are notions that are widely used today in areas of research, policies, monitoring, and planning (Spilanis et al., 2009).

  • Archaic Imported Fine Wares from the Acropolis, Mytilene
    ARCHAIC IMPORTED FINE WARES FROM THE ACROPOLIS, MYTILENE (PLATES 80-84) SAPPHO'S ISLE has long attracted a mixture of curiosity and fascination. The love poetry of Sappho and the bitter rivalry between Alkaios and Pittakos describedin the poems of the formergive us rare glimpses of life on Lesbos in the Archaicperiod. Herodotos occasionallysupplements this spotty information.Archaeology has been slow to fill in the broad gaps in our knowledge of the island's era of greatest fame. A small contributionis made here based on finds from recent excavationson the acropolisof Mytilene by the Uni- versity of British Columbia. Summarizing what was known of Archaic East Greek pottery on Lesbos over half a centuryago, R. M. Cook wrote: Mytilenehas producedno Fikellurayet: the archaicfinds at Antissashowed a largeproportion of Bucchero,very little 'Rhodian'[i.e. "WildGoat"] or Naucratite["Chian"], so thatthe island [Lesbos]must lie outsidethe 'Rhodian'sphere of influence.1 Little has been added to our knowledge of the Archaic pottery on Lesbos since then. The island, although certainly prosperousand a major participant in 6th-century trade in the eastern Mediterranean (e.g. at Naukratis, Herodotos 2.135, 178), has so far yielded very little importedmaterial of any kind from this period to help show the range of its overseas trade. Only Antissa, a small city on the northwest coast of the island, has produced any amount of Archaic imported pottery.2Several whole pots from tombs and about 60 sherds were noted or describedbriefly by Winifred Lamb at Antissa;they representa fair range of fabrics, including a few examples each of Attic black and red figure, Protocorinthian/Co- rinthian, Wild Goat, East Greek bird bowls, Chian, Laconian, and Cycladic.
