  • Staatlich-Nationale Erinnerungskultur in Griechisch-Thrakien
    Staatlich-nationale Erinnerungskultur in Griechisch-Thrakien CAY LIENAU (Münster) Einleitung Erinnerungskultur wird von mir als formaler Oberbegriff verstanden für alle denkbaren Formen der bewussten Erinnerung bzw. des bewussten Erinnerns und Nichterinnerns an historische Ereignisse, Persönlichkeiten und Prozesse.1 Auf solche Formen des Erinnerns und Nichterinnerns – auch das Ausblenden von Personen und historischen Ereignissen gehört zur Erinnerungskultur – soll am Beispiel von Griechisch-Thrakien (= Westthrakien) eingegangen werden. In diesem ethnisch und religiös gemischten Gebiet werden spezifische Züge staatlich-nationaler Erinnerungskultur besonders deutlich. Die Ausführungen beziehen sich v.a. auf die öffentliche (staatlich-nationale und kommunale) Erinnerungskultur, während auf die private Erinnerungskultur und die Traditionspflege der verschiedenen Volks- und Religionsgruppen nur am Rande eingegangen wird. Behandelt werden soll das Thema an Beispielen von • Orts- und Straßennamen • Denkmälern • Baudenkmälern und Museen • der Darstellung des Raumes und seiner Geschichte in offiziellen Publi- kationen. Zur Geographie und Geschichte Griechisch-Thrakiens Im äußersten Nordosten Griechenlands gelegen, ist Griechisch-Thrakien Teil der historischen Region Thrakien, zu der große Teile des östlichen und südli- chen Bulgarien und die europäische Türkei (= Ostthrakien) gehören.2 Im Westen bildet der Nestos (bulg.

Kallioras2 and F.-K. Pliakas1* 1 Engineering Geology Laboratory, Civil Engineering Department, Democritus University of Thrace, 67132 Xanthi, Greece 2 Engineering Geology and Hydrogeology Laboratory, School of Mining Engineering and Metallurgy, National Technical University of Athens, 157 80 Athens, Greece * e-mail: [email protected] Abstract: This paper presents the updated vulnerability assessment of Xilagani - Imeros aquifer system in the coastal plain region of Rhodope Prefecture, NE Greece, in the framework of the groundwater management in the region. Information regarding the geological and geomorphological environment, as well as data concerning the hydrologic and hydrogeological regime of the study area are stated. The paper presents the application of DRASTIC and GALDIT vulnerability indexes procedures and the design of easy to use vulnerability maps in order to identify the parts where there is a serious potential for groundwater resources qualitative degradation due to agricultural pollution (DRASTIC approach) or seawater intrusion (GALDIT approach). The research is based on the results of hydrogeological studies in the study area for the year 2015 compared to the year 2006, including field hydrogeological measurements and chemical analyses in the laboratory, as well as the design of groundwater piezometric maps and hydrochemical maps. It is worth mentioning that DRASTIC index values for the year 2015 do not differ substantially compared to the corresponding values for the year 2006. Instead, increase of GALDIT index values is recorded for the year 2015 indicating worsening of the groundwater salinization status due to seawater intrusion.

    ARTICLE Received 22 Apr 2014 | Accepted 22 Sep 2014 | Published 6 Nov 2014 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms6345 OPEN Genetic characterization of Greek population isolates reveals strong genetic drift at missense and trait-associated variants Kalliope Panoutsopoulou1,*, Konstantinos Hatzikotoulas1,*, Dionysia Kiara Xifara2,3, Vincenza Colonna4, Aliki-Eleni Farmaki5, Graham R.S.

Here we genotype 2,296 samples from two isolated Greek populations, the Pomak villages (HELIC-Pomak) in the North of Greece and the Mylopotamos villages (HELIC-MANOLIS) in Crete. We compare their genomic characteristics to the general Greek population and establish them as genetic isolates. In the MANOLIS cohort, we observe an enrichment of missense variants among the variants that have drifted up in frequency by more than fivefold. In the Pomak cohort, we find novel associations at variants on chr11p15.4 showing large allele frequency increases (from 0.2% in the general Greek population to 4.6% in the isolate) with haematological traits, for example, with mean corpuscular volume (rs7116019, P ¼ 2.3 Â 10 À 26). We replicate this association in a second set of Pomak samples (combined P ¼ 2.0 Â 10 À 36).

Although the historic monuments inherited from the Ottomans have been subject to systematic eradication, as of the year of 2006 there are 301 mosques in Western Thrace. 24 are closed and 277 of them still operate. Most of these mosques have minarets. In the last years only 14 minarets were built across the region. Much permission for building or restoring mosques and minarets are still pending in the Ministry of Religious Affairs and Education. Building a minaret up to 16 meters high was easier until the year of 2004. Since then, permissions for building mosques and minarets up to 16 meters and higher are still pending. There are 161 mosques in Komotini. 157 operate and 4 are closed. 11 new mosques and 12 new minarets were built in Komotini in the last years. The total number of mosques in Xanthi is 115. 97 mosques operate and 18 are closed. 10 new mosques and one minaret were built in the last years. 23 out of 25 mosques operate in Alexandroupolis, while 2 new mosques and one minaret are to be built. PERMISSION PROCEDURE The law no 1363/1938 which was later replaced by law no 1672/1939 conducts the procedure of getting permission to build any kind of house of prayer as well as mosques and minarets.
