  • National Inventory of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Greece
    NATIONAL INVENTORY OF THE INTANGIBLE CULTURAL HERITAGE OF GREECE Transhumant Livestock Farming 1. Brief Presentation of the Element of Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH) a. Under what name is the element identified by its bearers : Transhumant Livestock Farming b. Other name(s): Migrating animal husbandry, nomadic livestock breeding. In the past, terms such as “tent dwellers” (“skinites” in Greek) and “house-bearing Vlach shepherds” (“fereoikoi vlachopoimenes”) were used to denote migrating livestock farmers. Though widely used, the terms “nomadism” and “nomadic animal husbandry” do not correspond to the pattern of livestock movements now observed in Greek areas, since such movements occur between specific locations, in summer and in winter. Besides, nomads did not roam but chose the winter and summer settlements taking a number of complex factors under consideration. The term “transitional animal husbandry” is more precise, as it corresponds to the international term of transhumance, which indicates the seasonal movement of flocks and shepherd(s) from the mountain to the plain and vice versa. Unlike what takes place in Greece, where in their majority livestock-farming families continue to move along with the flocks, in many areas of Europe the entire family does not follow the movement of flocks, but permanently remains in a village, whether montane or lowland. Direct transhumance is defined as transitional animal husbandry, when the plain is the place of residence of the family, whereas in the opposite case, namely when the permanent place of residence of the family is on the mountain, it is called inverse transhumance. It is worth noting that transhumant livestock farmers of Greek areas regard as their home the mountains and not the plains where they winter (Psihoyos – Papapetrou 1983, 1 28, Salzman [a] 2010, Salzman [b] 2010).

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.

Authors’ contributions This work was carried out in collaboration between all authors. Author MA designed the study, performed the impacts to the natural environment by human activities (large dams and artificial diversion projects), the “in situ’ observations for the geomorphological evolution of each area under study and managed the analyses of the study. Authors MA and MK elaborated the literature searches, the data of maps, aerial photographs, satellite images and the “in situ’ observations and proceeded to comparative observations on the changes has been the natural environment and especially geomorphology in the under study areas. Authors MA and MK, wrote the protocol, and wrote the first draft of the manuscript. All authors read and approved the final manuscript. Received 3rd August 2012 th Research Article Accepted 6 April 2013 Published 31st July 2013 ABSTRACT It has been observed, in many Mediterranean countries, that human activities- engineering works, such as large dams and reservoirs construction (hydroelectric power dams, irrigation dams and water supply dams), artificial river diversion projects, channelization, etc., may seriously affect the environmental balance of inland and coastal ecosystems (forests, wetlands, lagoons, Deltas, estuaries and coastal areas).

  • Q.Ne.ST DC2.5 Publications on Capitalized Best Practices and Routes
    Q.ne.S.T. DC2.5 Publications on Capitalized best practices and routes: revised reports and informative sheets on the capitalization activities on best practices and routes. Epirus (Greece) _______________________ QNeST International Itineraries: Wine and Olive Oil Itinerary The theme of the Mediterranean Diet, with a particular focus on oil and wine, runs through all the countries of the EUSAIR area. The landscapes, characterised by olive groves and vineyards, bear witness to the common culture of the Euro-Mediterranean area, although each region has its own cultivars and production techniques. Oil and wine have always been used not just in food, but also in the rituals of the various belief systems practised on the shores of the Mediterranean. All the areas involved in the QNeST brand are crossed by routes linked to oil and wine. In Puglia, the greenways involving olive groves and vineyards are characterised by centuries-old monumental olive trees and olive oil mills, extensive vineyards and wineries. Along these routes in Xanthi, the olive trees stand out in all their majesty, while the wine route bears witness to the region's historic identity. The olive route in Epirus also highlights the bond between the centuries- old olive trees and the region. In the Marche region, the "Emotions without Borders" and "Experience the Region" routes allow you to discover the wealth of local heritage. The "Cycling through the Wineries" route allows you to enjoy the wineries in the Euganean Hills in Veneto in combination with the spas in the area. The vineyards and wineries of Montenegro are a constant theme of the "Historic and Natural treasure Route".
