  • Nature Park of Sitia Is on the Easternmost Edge of Crete, in the Municipality of Sitia
    This publication was designed by the Natural History Museum of Crete for the Municipal- ity of Sitia, due to the implementation of the action 2.3.1 “Development of an Ecotouristic guide” of the project “Geotourism and local development (GEOTOPIA)”, funded 80% by the European Union and by 20% by national funds from Greece and Cyprus, through the Greece-Cyprus 2007 - 2013 cross-border cooperation programme. “GEOTOPIA” refers to the collaboration of two mountainous and insular areas, the Munici- pality of Sitia in Crete and the mountain Troodos in Cyprus, which are characterized by their wealthy natural, geological and cultural environment, by underdevelopment and depopu- lation of the hinterland, and by the depreciation of their landscape, aiming to promote their natural and cultural environment, to develop geotouristic activities and finally, establish a geopark.

  • The Effects of Aerobics and Greek Traditional Dances on Cardio-Respiratory Responses in Adult Women
    EXERCISE AND QUALITY OF LIFE Research article Volume 2, No. 1, 2010, 29-36 UDC 796.015.68:796.035-055.2 796.015.68:793.31(=14)-055.2 THE EFFECTS OF AEROBICS AND GREEK TRADITIONAL DANCES ON CARDIO-RESPIRATORY RESPONSES IN ADULT WOMEN Maria Genti*, Dimitrios Goulimaris and Georgia Ioannidou Department of Physical Education and Sport Sciences, Democritus University of Thrace, Greece Abstract The aim of the study was to compare the cardio-respiratory responses of adult women, which participated in aerobics exercising and traditional dancing programs. A total of 30 women, ±9,82 yrs, were participated in the study and divided in four groups according to their aged 45 involvement in the intervention programs. The cardio respiratory endurance of the participants was evaluated by the use of 20m shuttle-run multistage fitness test (Tokmakidis,1992) and the heart rate was recorded by the use of a portable heart rate tester (Polar Electron Sport tester 810). The analysis of the data showed that there were no statistically significant differences concerning the type of exercise (p>.05), but there were statistically significant differences between initial and final measurements both in Greek traditional dancing and in aerobics program for both experimental groups (p<.05). The above results shows that the participation in Greek traditional dancing programs causes cardio respiratory responses similar to an aerobics program and it can be used as an alternative type of exercise. Keywords: Greek traditional dancing, aerobics, aerobic capacity Introduction Occupying with physical activity and exercise considerably contributes in various ways to ’s an individual (Wood, Reyes-Alvarez, Maraj, Metoyer & Welsch, 1997) fitness as well as to his mental health, since with aerobics training the decrease of the brain tissue is kept under control, a ’s condition which already begins at the third decade of one life (Colombe, Ericson, Raz, Webb, Cohen et al., 2002).

  • Paros E Antiparos
    PAROS E ANTIPAROS Paros è una delle più grandi isole delle Cicladi, situata nel Mar Egeo, famosa per il marmo bianco e per essere patria del poeta Archiloco, consiste in case bianche a forma di cubo, dipinte di bianco, con tetti orizzontali, finestre e porte di legno colorato e balconi costruiti ad anfiteatro l’uno sopra l’altro, ricchi di fiori; strade bianche e strette, e scale a serpentina che si avvolgono intorno alle case conducendo in cima al villaggio, dove in genere c’è una chiesa. L’architettura insomma è quella tipica delle Cicladi, coi mulini a vento a completare il quadro tradizionale. La principale città è Parikia. E’ abbastanza grande, tra Paros e Antiparos sarà come l’isola d’Elba ed ha una fascia costiera di 120 km. Essendo uno scalo molto importante, è collegata via mare a quasi tutte le isole dell'Egeo ed è provvista di un aeroporto che la collega ad Atene. In estate, vi sono frequenti servizi di traghetto per varie destinazioni come: Amorgos, Anafi, Ikaria, Ios, Samos, Koufonisia, Mykonos, Naxos, Rodi, Santorini, Schinousa, Skiathos, Syros, Tinos, ma anche per Creta, Volos e Salonicco. Storia: Paros e stata abitata dal 3200 a.C. come dimostrano gli scavi nell’isoletta di Saliagos, situata tra Paros e Antiparos le quali probabilmente, formavano nell’antichità un’unica isola. Secondo la mitologia, Alceo il cretese fu il primo re di Paros e costruì una cittadella là dove oggi è situato il capoluogo dell’isola Parikia. Durante quegli anni Creta aveva scambi commerciali con l’Egitto, l’Assiria e i Balcani.

  • Ecotourism Guide to NATURA 2000 Network Areas on Crete
    Ecotourism guide to NATURA 2000 network areas on Crete Be part of it, protect it! Operational Programme for Crete and the Aegean Islands Co-financed by Greece and the European Union Preface Dear friends, The past, present and future of Crete are inextricably bound up with its exceptional natural environment. Rich biodiversity, a significant number of endemic species, a variety of ecosystems and landscapes of outstanding natural beauty are what characterize our natural heritage. In acknowledging the value of our natural environment’s multiple functions as regards healthy living and quality of life, as well as in implementing our vision of sustainable development, Crete Regional Authority has made the protection, sound management and promotion of our island’s nature its top priority. The NATURA 2000 Network protected areas have a significant role to play in realising that aim, given that they act as key reserves for nature conservation throughout Europe. In publishing this “Ecotourism guide to NATURA 2000 network areas on Crete” we present the NATURA 2000 areas on Crete, highlighting their characteristics and stressing both their value and their prospects for growth. Sculpted by time and six thousand years of human history, our island’s nature is a common good each of us can enjoy, while also being under the obligation to protect it. We can only hope that through this guide we will all come to better know the NATURA 2000 protected areas, and understand the need to protect them.

  • Macedonians in Greece Risto Stefov
    Macedonians in Greece 1939 – 1949 By Risto Stefov Macedonians in Greece 1939 - 1949 Published by: Risto Stefov Publications [email protected] Toronto, Canada All rights reserved. No part of this book may be reproduced or transmitted in any form or by any means, electronic or mechanical, including photocopying, recording or by any information storage and retrieval system without written consent from the author, except for the inclusion of brief and documented quotations in a review. Copyright 2009 by Risto Stefov e-book edition 2 PREFACE Very little has been written about the Macedonians in Greece and their involvement in World War II and in the Greek Civil War. Macedonians who live in Greece to this day are afraid to speak of their terrible ordeals for fear of repercussions from the Greek authorities or because it is simply too painful for them to remember. To this day it is taboo in Greece to speak of the Greek Civil War. The Macedonians in Greece it seems have been ignored by all sides. Yugoslavia has ignored them because it did not want to ruin its good relations with Greece. Greece on the other hand, to this day claims that Macedonians simply do not exist and wants no part of them. Bulgaria, even though it has a large Macedonian immigrant population from Greece, has yet to recognize the Macedonian people as a distinct ethnic group. So in reality no one really cares about the Macedonians in Greece and as a result very little to nothing has been written about them. “Indeed, the Macedonians in Greece are hardly ever mentioned in scholarly literature and have been virtually forgotten as a people and as a national minority.” (Andrew Rossos) This is most unfortunate not only because the Macedonian contribution to the struggle against Fascism and Nazism has been completely omitted, but because the Macedonian people themselves living in Greece despite their contributions, have been completely ignored as if they didn’t exist.

  • Greek Cypriot Wedding Music and Customs: Revival and Identity
    Greek Cypriot Wedding Music and Customs: Revival and Identity Submitted by: EFI IOANNIDOU Supervisors: DR. ANDREW KILLICK, DR. SIMON KEEGAN-PHIPPS THE UNIVERSITY OF SHEFFIELD PhD in Music 21st March 2017 2 ABSTRACT In many cultures, weddings are the most important event in people’s lives. Greek Cypriots use weddings as a means of expressing their identity and linking themselves to their roots, with the conscious aim of preservation of their musical tradition and customs. As a result, weddings are especially important in their musical culture because of the threats to their identity posed by the island’s long history of foreign rule and colonisation. However, an upheaval has occurred in the folk music and customs of Greek Cypriot wedding ceremonies over the last ten years, creating an urgent need for a study of these customs in relation to social, historical and cultural developments in Cyprus. This study has revealed a movement towards music revival that links contemporary practice with the ‘living memory’ of the mid-twentieth century. The thesis is structured in two parts, progressing from the directly observable wedding practices of contemporary Greek Cypriots to the remembered and reconstructed forms of the Greek Cypriot wedding that is now regarded as ‘traditional’. Part One analyses contemporary wedding ceremonies and the choices that newlyweds make in the customs and music of their weddings. Part Two attempts to reconstruct in detail the music and customs of Greek Cypriot wedding ceremonies of the mid-twentieth century from the testimonies of veteran folk musicians and from documentary sources. Besides documenting a tradition that is little known and fast transforming, the study contributes to current discussions in ethnomusicology on themes such as ‘music revivals’ and ‘tradition and identity’.
