CHAPTERS 15 and 16 IDA 15
15 AND 16: IDA CHAPTERS 15 and 16 IDA 15 Two views of Mt Ida (Psiloreitis) range from the south by the Swiss photographer Fred Boissonnas (1958-1946), published at the beginning of the report on the 1913 Kamares excavation (see below). “Digenis’ saddle” is top left in the left-hand photo. Spratt begins his book on Crete with a description of the view from Ida, and thus makes it in a manner the centre of his survey. I went up Ida somewhere about 1904 with Currelly and Miss Edith Hall, but have very few notes. We went from Candia up through the village of Anoyia and so to the Nida plain where we slept by a chapel not far from the famous Nida Idaean cave.1 In the early morning we climbed up the ridge and saw the sunset [rise] from the summit where there is a little chapel. Descending again to the plain, we went through the southern opening of the Nida basin and so round the wooded slopes to the right as far as the Kamares cave, which we could not enter as it was all choked up with snow.2 When I excavated this cave in 1913 the season was hardly more advanced, but there had been very little snow that year and the cave was in consequence quite free and there was even no water in the inner cave. It is not necessary here to describe the cave which I have done in the account of the excavation. On the way from the plain to the cave we passed a spring where there was a group of shepherds, all in the usual Cretan dress. -

Chapter 22 Coast from Tsoutsouros to Agia Galini
22: COAST FROM TSOUTSOUROS TO AGIA GALINI CHAPTER 22 COAST FROM TSOUTSOUROS TO AGIA GALINI Tsoutsouros is a cluster of small one-storey flat roofed houses on the beach at the mouth of the Tsoutsouropotamo.1 The only remarkable object there was a monk named Isaac; from what monastery I do not know, but he was living there at least for the time. This man, no longer young, was what is called a Spanos, that is, one of those men, not at all uncommon in Crete, who are marked off by having either no beard at all or only the very scantiest. Their age it is always next to impossible to tell: it could only be said of Isaac that he was not young. Standing apart from ordinary humanity, these unfortunates, by reason of their prolonged but odd-looking youthfulness and their miserably shrivelling but seemingly timeless age, remind one, sadly, of Swift’s terrible invention of the deathless Struldbrugs. The Cretans in general are a well- bearded race and look upon the Spanoi with an odd mixture of derision and fear. In folktale they are always cruel and cunning, and generally villainous. What the Greeks of the middle age thought of them may be seen from the satirical parody of the liturgy called the Mass of the Spanos, a long torrent of scurrility directed against one of these unfortunates. In modern Crete they are credited with having the evil eye. The keeper of a kapheneion at Chersonnesos, where I have often spent the midday halt, is one of them. -
