Nikos Tsakanikas 2 HOMERIC TOURS GREECE 20202019 Why Homeric Tours is the Best Choice to Greece First let me say the trip to Greece and Italy was amazing. Everything flowed like clockwork: drivers right there, even when we arrived in Athens from Venice an hour an half late, but the driver was right there. We never had to worry if they would show up. Hotels were all amazing. Each one different, it was fun to see what the next hotel would be like. Cruise was everything we could have hoped for and more. The port stops were wonderful and food was good; especially, the coffee and Greek Ice Cream. Again, I can never thank you enough for making the trip a wonderful trip. – SANDRA S., NASHVILLE, TN My clients absolutely loved their time in Greece. Their favorite was the Classical Tour, and they absolutely loved Crete. They wished they would spend more time there, beautiful and a lot to experience. They loved the hotels, and all went efficiently. Thanks again for your help. –DOREEN L., TRAVEL CONSULTANT While it has been a couple weeks since my daughters got back SALT LAKE CITY, UT from their trip to Greece I do want to take some time to let you know what a wonderful trip you had planned for them. The longer they were there the more comfortable they felt. Thanks again for putting this together and next time I hope my wife and I We had a wonderful trip! Thank you for will be able to make the trip. all your help. Homeric crew was SPOT ON at every pickup, transfer, tickets, –J. BRADLEY R., OCHARD PARK, NY tours and hotels were nice too. Athens was really nice and Crete our favorite island. I just got off the phone with my client to hear all – JELKA B., WATSONVILLE, CA about her trip to Greece. She couldn’t stop raving about everything. All your suggestions as to hotels and logistics and patience with finalizing the details was much appreciated by both the client and myself to make this graduation trip for her and her daughter memorable and fun.

  • A Trip to Greece Is a Trip Which Will Reveal Your Utmost Fantasies
    A trip to Greece is a trip which will reveal your utmost fantasies! …where landscapes alternate and take you from the deep blue of the sea to the blue of the lakes and rivers on the mountains… where you can rediscover the freedom and peace of your mind! Let us share the secrets of Greece with you!! Experience Peloponnese Overview of the destination Peloponnese is one of the most important regions of Greece, rich in history and full of culture, tradition, ancient monuments, towns and beautiful sceneries. It is surrounded by the sea and is separated from the Northern part of the country by the Gulf of Corinth. You will be amazed by the contradictory landscapes as you’re driving from North to South. The mountainous and fertile landscapes of the North give their place to rocky formations sliding into the sea at the south. Sceneries of orange and the smells of the orange trees turn to green as the land surrenders to the domination of olive trees and their valuable fruits. Anything you desire you can find in Peloponnese. Seaside luxury resorts, small traditional cottages with homemade breakfast, cliff hanging luxury settlements and farm houses with agricultural activities can accommodate your ultimate desires. Those more adventurous can enjoy trekking expeditions, river rafting and cycling in the countryside. If you want to go deep into history, you can travel from antiquity to the Byzantine era. Mycenae, Ancient Olympia, Megalopolis, Naflpion, Mystras, Monemvasia and Pylos are few of the places you can admire. The charming villages with the stone built houses and the narrow quarters will seduce you with their simplicity and hospitable inhabitants.

    After the War Was Over Mark Mazower Published by Princeton University Press Mazower, M.. After the War Was Over: Reconstructing the Family, Nation, and State in Greece, 1943-1960. Princeton: Princeton University Press, 2016. Project MUSE., https://muse.jhu.edu/. For additional information about this book https://muse.jhu.edu/book/47927 Access provided by Yale University Library (30 Mar 2017 18:23 GMT) EIGHT Red Terror: Leftist Violence during the Occupation Stathis N. Kalyvas This chapter aims to question, and help revise, one of the central, indeed hegemonic, assumptions in the study of the Greek civil war: that the Left (the National Liberation Front—EAM—and the Communist Party of Greece—KKE) has been the main (or even the only) victim of violence. The emergence and domination of such a view should come as no surprise. On the one hand, defeat in a civil war tends to be total; hence supporters of the defeated side suffer disproportionately. Indeed, most descriptions of the violence suffered by the supporters of the Left usu- ally focus either on the period immediately following the end of the occupation—often described as the period of the “white terror” (1945– 1947), or on the final phase of the civil war (1947–1949) and its after- math. On the other hand, references to left-wing terror, as plentiful as they were vague, became a key weapon in the ideological arsenal of the Greek Right. The collapse, in 1974, of the ideological hegemony of the Right erased all references to leftist terror. Indeed, recent scholarly his- torical research has tended to overlook,1 minimize,2 or whitewash3 leftist terror.4 Even serious scholarship has tended to minimize leftist terror in a variety of subtle and implicit ways—including the choice of a skewed vocabulary.

  • Antiquity 82 Issue 317 September 2008 Supplementary Information: Field Guide to Geology and Botany of Temples in Greece and Cyprus
    Antiquity 82 Issue 317 September 2008 Supplementary information: field guide to geology and botany of temples in Greece and Cyprus Gregory J. Retallack* * Department of Geological Sciences, University of Oregon, Eugene, Oregon 974034- 1272, USA (Email: [email protected]) Acropolis, Athens. The principal temple of Athena in the ancient world was the Parthenon (N37.971233o E23.726017o) on the cliff-girt rocky hill within the city of Athens (modern Athinai), Attica (Stillwell et al., 1976; Hurwit, 1999; Olalla, 2002). It faces northeast, and has a commanding view on all sides of the lower city, and of ridgelines and the coastal plain south to the ancient port of Piraeus. The measured soil profile (Figure 1A) is at the foot of the southwestern corner of the Parthenon (N37.971233o E23.726017o), in rubble over limestone bedrock. Bedrock of the Acropolis here is Late Cretaceous limestone within the Athens “Schist” of the Sub-Pelagonian terrane (Higgins and Higgins, 1996). The shales here are not sufficiently deformed or metamorphosed to be regarded as schist. The limestone and associated marl shows gypsum pseudomorphs, ferruginized clastic dikes, spar-filled stromatactis, tepee structures and fossil scleractinian corals suggestive of a fossil reef and lagoon. Vegetation of the Acropolis is primarily gardens and weeds.
