  • Monastery of Kykkos
    Monastery of Kykkos 1 The monastery of the Virgin of Kykkos is located at an altitude of approximately 1,200 meters, about one kilometer from mountain Kykkos, a 1,318 m high peak in the western part of the Troodos range. That peak is also known by the name Throni or Throni of Panagia. The monastery is the most famous and rich among the active Cypriot monasteries of our time. It is also one of the most important in terms of history as well as national and social work. The Holy Monastery of Panagia of Kykkos was founded around the end of the 11th century by Byzantine Emperor Alexios I Komnenos, and since then has housed the icon of the Virgin reputedly painted by Apostle Luke. According to the tradition concerning the establishment of the Monastery, a virtuous hermit called Esaias used to live in a cave on the mountain of Kykkos. One day, Manuel Boutomites, the Byzantine governor of the island, who was spending his summer holidays at a village in the Marathasa valley went hunting and was lost in the forest. He came upon the hermit and asked him how he could go back. Esaias wished to avoid all things of this world and so did not reply. His attitude angered Boutomites, who resorted to verbal and even physical abuse. Shortly afterwards, Boutomites was taken ill with an incurable disease. This led him to recall his inhuman behaviour towards Esaias and asked God to make him well so that he could go to the hermit and ask him for his forgiveness.

The aim of this publication is to help visitors discover the cultural heritage of Cyprus. The qualified personnel at any Information Office of the Cyprus Tourism Organisation (CTO) is happy to help organise your visit in the best possible way. Parallel to answering questions and enquiries, the Cyprus Tourism Organisation provides, free of charge, a wide range of publications, maps and other information material. Additional information is available at the CTO website: www.visitcyprus.com It is an unfortunate reality that a large part of the island’s cultural heritage has since July 1974 been under Turkish occupation.

Bugün adada yaşayan iki büyük topluluk Rumlar ve Türklerdir. Bunun yanında küçük gruplar halinde Ermeniler, Marunîler, Latin Katolikler, Anglikanlar, Yahudiler ve yeni dini oluşumlardan Yahova Şahitleri, Bahailer ve Protestanlar yaşamaktadır. Çalışma Osmanlı Devleti’nin adada nasıl bir ortam bulduğunu göstermek adına 1571 yılından önceki durumu, Osmanlı’nın adayı fethi ve sonrasını, 1878-1960 yılları arasında adayı yönetmiş olan İngiliz idaresi dönemini ve 1960’dan günümüze dini durumu ortaya koymayı amaçlamıştır. Bugün ada nüfusunun çoğunluğunu oluşturan Ortodoks Rum halkı, Osmanlı Devleti’nin adayı fethi ile yaşama şansı bulmuş, ellerinden alınan kilise ve manastırları Osmanlı Devleti sayesinde kendilerine iade edilmiştir. Osmanlı tebaası olan Müslüman Türkler, 1878 İngiliz idaresi sonrası Rumların kendilerine saldırmaları sebebiyle doğal bir refleksle savunma pozisyonuna geçmişler, Osmanlı Devleti’nin yıkılmış ve hilafetin kaldırılmış olması sebebiyle lidersiz kalmışlar, kendi aralarında örgütlenerek ulusal topluma geçiş sürecini yaşamışlardır. Bu süreçte Kıbrıs İslamları tanımlaması yerini Kıbrıs Türkleri tanımlamasına bırakmıştır. Anahtar Kelimeler: Kıbrıs, Din, Kıbrıs Tarihi, Dinler Tarihi, Hıristiyan, Müslüman, Ortodoks Necmettin Erbakan Üniversitesi Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü Ahmet Keleşoğlu Eğitim Fak.

Denmatint Committee on Graduate Studies Water Supply Enhancement in Cyprus through Evaporation Reduction by Chad W. Cox Submitted to the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering on May 7, 1999 in Partial Fulfillment for the Degree of Master of Engineering in Civil and Environmental Engineering Abstract The Republic of Cyprus is prone to periodic multi-year droughts. The Water Development Department (WDD) is therefore investigating innovative methods for producing and conserving water. One of the concepts being considered is reduction of evaporation from surface water bodies. A reservoir operation study of the Southern Conveyor Project (SCP) suggests that an average of 6.9 million cubic meters (MCM) of water is lost to evaporation each year. The value of this water is over CYE 1.2 million, and replacement of this volume of water by desalination will cost CYE 2.9 million. The WDD has investigated the use of monomolecular films for use in evaporation suppression, but these films are difficult to use in the field and raise concerns about health effects.
