  • Early Mycenaean Arkadia: Space and Place(S) of an Inland and Mountainous Region
    Early Mycenaean Arkadia: Space and Place(s) of an Inland and Mountainous Region Eleni Salavoura1 Abstract: The concept of space is an abstract and sometimes a conventional term, but places – where people dwell, (inter)act and gain experiences – contribute decisively to the formation of the main characteristics and the identity of its residents. Arkadia, in the heart of the Peloponnese, is a landlocked country with small valleys and basins surrounded by high mountains, which, according to the ancient literature, offered to its inhabitants a hard and laborious life. Its rough terrain made Arkadia always a less attractive area for archaeological investigation. However, due to its position in the centre of the Peloponnese, Arkadia is an inevitable passage for anyone moving along or across the peninsula. The long life of small and medium-sized agrarian communities undoubtedly owes more to their foundation at crossroads connecting the inland with the Peloponnesian coast, than to their potential for economic growth based on the resources of the land. However, sites such as Analipsis, on its east-southeastern borders, the cemetery at Palaiokastro and the ash altar on Mount Lykaion, both in the southwest part of Arkadia, indicate that the area had a Bronze Age past, and raise many new questions. In this paper, I discuss the role of Arkadia in early Mycenaean times based on settlement patterns and excavation data, and I investigate the relation of these inland communities with high-ranking central places. In other words, this is an attempt to set place(s) into space, supporting the idea that the central region of the Peloponnese was a separated, but not isolated part of it, comprising regions that are also diversified among themselves.

  • The Emigration of Muslims from the Greek State in the 19Th Century
    BALCANICA POSNANIENSIA XXVII Poznań 2020 THE EMIGRATION OF MUSLIMS FROM THE GREEK STATE 1 IN THE 19TH CENTURy. AN OUTLINE kr z y s z t o f Po P e k Abstract. Modern Greek statehood began to take shape with the War of Independence that broke out in 1821 and continued with varying intensity for the next years. As a result of these events, the Greeks cast of the foreign rule, which for many not only meant separation from the Ottoman Empire, but also the expulsion of Muslims living in these lands. During the uprising, about 25 000 Muslims lost their lives, and a similar number emigrated from the territory of the future Greek state. The next great exodus of Muslims from Greek lands was related to the an- nexation of Thessaly by the Hellenic Kingdom, which was to a larger extent spread over time. Since the region was incorporated into Greece until the beginning of the 20th century, the 40 000-strong Islamic community had virtually disappeared.

  • Kynomartyrion)
    DOG SACRIFICE IN ANCIENT AND MODERN GREECE: FROM THE SACRIFICE RITUAL TO DOG TORTURE (KYNOMARTYRION) Manolis G. Sergis Abstract: The article presents and discusses the custom of kynomartyrion (dog torture) which took place in the Greek lands until the 1980s. In many areas it stopped in the 1930s because of its cruelty. The author begins his discussion with the presentation of some elements that are related to the dog. More spe- cifically, the dog is an animal that entered the humanized environment long ago and belongs to the creatures whose nature is twofold because it is part of the human and the non-human worlds and it has been treated as twofold by at least the Indo-Europeans. It is also maintained that the liminal Hellenistic period was decisive for the formation of folk worship because of the religious syncre- tism and the invasion of demons that dominated in the Eastern Mediterranean. The author points out its remarkable similarities to ancient Greek and Roman (and Indo-European) fertile, cathartic and other sacrificial practices. Due to industrialization of agriculture and rationalization of the magical way of thought of the “traditional” peasant, performance of the custom was transformed into a folkloric, spectacular one with intensely violent and sadistic behaviour on the part of humans in the places where it still took place after 1960. The writer argues that violence was always an inherent characteristic of the custom. None- theless, the archaic, and later folk thinking ritualized the performance and attributed to it a different facet, devoid of any sacred elements, during the 20th century where its inherent violence was manifested in its raw essence.

  • Nafpaktos Schräg Gegenüber Von Patras Liegt Ein Kleines Äußerst Malerisches Städtchen – Nafpaktos
    Nafpaktos Schräg gegenüber von Patras liegt ein kleines äußerst malerisches Städtchen – Nafpaktos. Es hat einen winzigen Hafen, der durch eine Art Stadtmauer befestigt ist. Rechts und links der Hafeneinfahrt stehen kleine Türmchen auf der Mauer, ein sehr schönes Bild. Oberhalb des Städtchens liegt die Ruine einer ziemlich groß angelegten venezianischen Festung, deren Mauern bis hinunter zum Meer gehen. Und oberhalb gibt es eine wunderschöne Taverne, von der aus man einen einmaligen Blick auf die Stadt und den Golf von Patras hat. Und im Hafen gibt es ausgezeichnete Restaurants, man sitzt sozusagen auf der Stadtmauer und hat beim Essen einen wunderbaren Blick auf den kleinen Hafen. Was hat es auf sich mit Nafpaktos? Dazu muss man in die Geschichte zurückgehen – da hieß das Städtchen nicht Nafpaktos, sondern Lepanto. Nach der Eroberung Konstantinopels 1453 durch die Türken gab es ja immer wieder Versuche seitens der Türken/des Osmanischen Reiches, Griechenland und den Balkan – mit Ziel Europa insgesamt – zu erobern. Einer dieser Versuche endete am 7. Oktober 1571 in der Seeschlacht von Lepanto, unweit des heutigen Städtchens Nafpaktos. Es war die letzte Seeschlacht mit von Sklaven geruderten Galeeren. 212 Kriegsschiffe der „Heiligen Liga“ gegen 260 Kriegsschiffe der Osmanen; 68000 Spanier, Italiener, Österreicher, Venezianer und Soldaten des Papstes gegen 77000 Osmanen. Don Juan de Austria, ein Sohn des Habsburgerkaisers Karl V., führte die Koalition an. Diese hatte sich gebildet, weil die Osmanen Zypern erobert hatten, das bisher zu Venedig gehörte. Venedig wollte seinen Mittelmeerhandel erhalten und erweitern – der Papst hoffte auf eine Renaissance der Kreuzzüge gegen die „Ungläubigen“. Das Zweckbündnis hielt nicht lange, der Sieg festigte die europäische Vormachtstellung der Habsburger.

  • Chelmos (Aroania): a New European Telescope Site for the 2.3-M Telescope of the National Observatory of Athens
    Preserving the Astronomical Sky IA U Symposium, Vol. 196, 2001 R. J. Cohen and W. T. Sullivan, III, eds. Chelmos (Aroania): a New European Telescope Site for the 2.3-m Telescope of the National Observatory of Athens D. Sinachopoulos, F. Maragoudaki", P. Hantzios, E. Kontizas Astronomical Institute, National Observatory of Athens, PO Box 20048, GR-118 10 Athens, Greece R. Korakitis Dionysos Satellite Observatory, National Technical University of Athens, GR-15780 Abstract. The National Observatory of Athens (N.O.A.) will install a new, advanced technology 2.3-m telescope in Greece. A favoured location for the installation of the new telescope is the top of Mount Chelmos. We present preliminary results concerning the conditions at this site. It is found that the site has a quite dark sky, a good percentage of clear nights (about 60%) and very good seeing conditions. 1. Introduction The National Observatory of Athens (N.O.A.) will install a new advanced tech- nology 2.3-m telescope in Greece. The telescope will have Ritchey-Chretien optics with a field of view of 1.04 degrees. Its construction was awarded to Carl Zeiss Jena GmbH. The National Observatory intends to install it at the top of Mount Chelmos (Aroania), at approximate coordinates longitude 22°12' East and latitude 37°59' North. The site is near the town of Kalavryta in northern Peloponnese, at an altitude of 2340 m. In satellite images (Fig.1, adapted from Cinzano et al. 2000), the site appears near the centre of one of the darkest spots of Southern Europe.
