AMBRACIA If You Are in Picturesque Arta, You Will Not Need to Travel to Visit Glorious Ambracia of Ancient Times
AMBRACIA If you are in picturesque Arta, you will not need to travel to visit glorious Ambracia of ancient times. It is at your feet. Of course modern buildings hide a large part of its magnificence. The rest is sufficient however, as it is just as attractive and significant. King Pyrrhus of Epirus should have loved Ambracia, maybe because it was the most important Corinthian colony after Kerkyra (Corfu). He held the Corinthians in great regard for their commercial prowess and the economic policy of expansion they practiced. In 625 BC Corinthian colonials had followed Gorgon, the illegitimate son of the tyrant of Corinth Kypselos, and settled on FOLLOW A ROUTE TO HISTORY the banks of the River Arachthos, where beautiful Arta lies today. Their settlement was part of an intelligent plan conceived by the Kypselides to build colonies and commercial and naval posts in appropriate positions, in order to dominate the West by monopolizing trade, the driving force of the economy. This is why we will find them in Lefkada, Corfu, Epidamnus etc. Gorgos and the Corinthian colonials pushed out of the region the Dryopes, but retained the name of the place which, according to mythology, is attributed to Ambracus, son of Thesprotos or to Ambracia, daughter of Melaneas, King HELLENIC REPUBLIC of the Dryopes.

Different but geographically near areas developed interwoven economic activities. In that sense this paper examines the economic relations among the merchant marine of Messolonghi, a small port in western Greece, the exporting port of Preveza in Epirus and the needs of Malta and Livorno for certain goods during the eighteenth century. Messolonghi, Preveza and Malta formed a triangle of commercial activities based on the different requirements and potential of each area: in products, people, capital and vessels. The rise of the Greek merchant marine is dated to the beginning of the eighteenth century.1 While 100 years later, during the Greek Revolution of the years 1821-1830, the fleets from the islands in the Aegean, namely Hydra, Spetses and Psara, became famous for their participation in the war, at the beginning of the eighteenth century it was the ships from the Ionian that visited Western Mediterranean ports. -

Collective Remembrance and Private Choice: German-Greek Conflict and Consumer Behavior in Times of Crisis*
Collective Remembrance and Private Choice: German-Greek Conflict and Consumer Behavior in Times of Crisis* Vasiliki Fouka† Hans-Joachim Voth‡ January 2021 Abstract How is collective memory formed, and when does it impact behavior? We high- light two conditions under which the memory of past events comes to matter for the present: the associative nature of memory, and institutionalized acts of com- memoration by the state. During World War II, German troops occupying Greece perpetrated numerous massacres. Memories of those events resurfaced during the 2009 Greek debt crisis, leading to a drop in German car sales in Greece, especially in areas affected by German reprisals. Differential economic performance did not drive this divergence. Multiple pieces of evidence suggest that current events reac- tivated past memories, creating a backlash against Germany. Using quasi-random variation in public recognition of victim status, we show that institutionalized col- lective memory amplifies the effects of political conflict on consumer behavior. *For helpful suggestions we thank Alexander Apostolides, Leo Bursztyn, Bruno Caprettini, Luke Condra, Elias Dinas, Ray Fisman, Nicola Gennaioli, Luigi Guiso, Yannis Ioannides, Emir Kamenica, Tim Leunig, Sara Lowes, John Marshall, Guy Michaels, Stelios Michalopoulos, Nathan Nunn, Sonal Pandya, Elias Papaioannou, Luigi Pascali, Giacomo Ponzetto, Dominic Rohner, Alain Schlapfer,¨ Guido Tabellini, and Nico Voigtlander.¨ Seminar participants at Bocconi, CREI, Ente Einaudi, Har- vard, UPF, Columbia, LSE, the Workshop on Political Conflict in Washington University in St. Louis, the 2017 Zurich Conference on Origins and Consequences of Group Identities, the EREH-London conference, and the 12th Conference on Research on Economic Theory and Econometrics in Naxos provided useful advice. -

Bd. 42 H. 2 S. 125—135 Bonn, Juni 1991 Notes on the distribution of small mammals (Insectívora, Rodentia) in Epeirus, Greece Theodora S. Sofianidou & Vladimir Voliralik Abstract. The material of 107 specimens of small mammals was collected in 19 localities of Epeirus in the years 1985 — 1989. Additional faunistic records were obtained by field observations. Together, information on the distribution of 14 species were obtained. From these Miller's water shrew {Neomys anomalus) is reported first time from this region. Some questions concerning the distribution and habitats of individual species are discussed. Key words. Mammaha, Insectívora, Rodentia, distribution, taxonomy, Epeirus, Greece. Introduction The mammal fauna of the west coast of the Balkan peninsula, south of Neretva river, belongs to the most interesting of Europe. The reason for this is above all an unusual- ly high occurrence of endemism which is typical for this area. So far, only the northernmost part of this area, i. e., Monte Negro, Jugoslavia has been investigated satisfactorily (Petrov 1979). From the rest of this area data are either almost completely absent (Albania) or they are very incomplete (Greece). Therefore, the present paper is intended to contribute to the knowledge of small mammals of Epeirus, a region which is situated in the north-west part of Greece, in the close proximity of Albania. The first data on small of this region were pubhshed by Miller (1912) who had at his disposal a small series of mammals from the island Korfu. -

It has been quite a year. A year you’d probably prefer to leave behind and move on. You put your wants on hold and stayed patiently inside, waiting for better days to come. Now that these days are just around the corner, you can start listening again to your wants and do whatever it takes to satisfy them. Always while keeping yourself and those around you safe. If you keep really quiet for a moment, you will hear your inner voice asking you one simple question. “What do you want?” Do you want to experience a little about everything or a lot about one thing? All you want is one place. A place tailor-made for you. #AllYouWantIsGreece REGION OF CRETE Crete is a jewel in the Med- iterranean Sea, the cradle of European civilization.
