The Campaign of Plataea. MARDONIUS reoccupied Athens, Herodotus tells us (ix. 3), in the tenth month after Xerxes had taken it, that is to say not earlier than June of the next year. The pause in the war lasted therefore far beyond the winter. Both parties were no doubt anxious to gather the new harvest, but there were also other reasons for their delay. Mardonius had been left in a difficult situation. -
Megara's Harbours
Chapter 4 KLAUS FREITAG – Rheinisch-Westfälische Technische Hochschule, Aachen [email protected] With and Without You: Megara’s Harbours The main question that will be addressed in this article is whether and how the harbour towns of the Megarid constituted local places in their own right. Exploring the entangled history of the polis Megara and its ports, this paper also points to the complexities behind scholarly approximations to the local horizon of an ancient Greek city-state. Population Figures and Territory Sizes The estimated population of Megara in the fifth century was c. 40,000. 1 In some calculations this figure includes a high number of slaves, c. 15,000 (cf. Plut. Demetr. 9).2 In the Hellenistic period, the number appears to have been significantly smaller. We note that, while 3,000 Megarian hoplites had fought at Plataia in 479 BCE, in 279 BCE, Megara only sent 400 hoplites to Thermopylai to face the Galatian Invasion. 3 This reduction might have been due, in part, to the secession of Pagai and Aigosthena. The epigraphic evidence from Aigosthena, discussed above, informs the estimation of population figures there, at least in the third century BCE. According to Beloch, the 1 Legon 1981: 23, based on estimations of agricultural capacities. 2 Legon 2005: 463. 3 Paus. 10.20.4; cf. Legon 1981: 301, who doubts that this was the full contingent.

Greek Legislation and Regulatory Framework in Civil Protection: a Comparative Analysis of Pre and Post the 4662/2020 Law
IPRPD International Journal of Arts, Humanities & Social Science ISSN 2693-2547 (Print), 2693-2555 (Online) Volume 01; Issue no 06: November 07, 2020 An ongoing process? Greek Legislation and Regulatory Framework in Civil Protection: A comparative analysis of pre and post the 4662/2020 Law Christos Zacheilas1, Nikos Papadakis2 1 PhD Candidate, Department of Political Sciences, University of Crete, Greece, Email: [email protected] 2 Professor & Director of the Centre for Political Research & Documentation (KEPET), Department of Political Science, Deputy Director of the University of Crete Research Center for the Humanities, the Social and Education Sciences (UCRC), University of Crete, Greece, Email: [email protected] Received: 30/10/2020 Accepted for Publication: 05/11/2020 Published: 07/11/2020 Abstract The aim of this article is to examine and analyze modifications and changes in the regulatory framework (Law Changes) regarding Civil Protection in Greece, the way these changes are triggered and the time gap between each of those changes. Greece, over the years, has seen many changes in its Civil Protection legislation, each of them being triggered in different time periods and for different reasons. It is important to compare these changes with the previous Laws that were implemented, to check the responsiveness to emerging needs, as well as to focus on points that are important to be clearly outlined or are maybe in need of revision. The reasons that trigger a change in the regulatory framework can vary and are usually a result of the political situation of the country, the scientific and technological advancements, the responses of country mechanisms as well as the consequences of large scale disasters, the green policies initiatives and the European Guidelines. -
Assessing the Transition from the Neolithic to the Early Bronze Age in Southern Salamis
Mediterranean Archaeology and Archaeometry Vol. 21, No 1, (2021), pp. 311-329 Open Access. Online & Print. www.maajournal.com DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.4574641 PHENOMENA OF NUCLEATION: ASSESSING THE TRANSITION FROM THE NEOLITHIC TO THE EARLY BRONZE AGE IN SOUTHERN SALAMIS Christina Marabea University of Ioannina Excavations in Salamis, Department of History and Archaeology, University of Ioannina, Greece [email protected] Received: 11/02/2021 Accepted: 01/03/2021 ABSTRACT The paper draws on long-lasting random survey work by the University of Ioannina in southern Salamis. Its aim is to highlight the trajectory of the valley of Kanakia, in the southwest part of the island, during the transition from the Neolithic to the Early Bronze Age. The material record at hand, originating from surface collections and limited trial trenches from seven sites at the valley of Kanakia, suggests a Late/Final Neolithic dispersed mode of habitation followed by a concentrated one by the Early Helladic II period (mid 3rd millennium B.C.). This attested settlement nucleation by the Early Helladic II period may bespeak for a process of social transformation at the coastal site of the Kanakia acropolis, which emerged as the urban centre of Salamis in the Late Mycenaean period (13th cent. B.C.). KEYWORDS: Salamis, Kanakia valley, Late/Final Neolithic, Early Bronze Age, settlement pattern Copyright: © 2021.

Title in Times New Roman (10 Pt Bold) Using First Capital Letters (Recommended Size: Two Lines)
15th International Congress of the Geological Society of Greece Athens, 22-24 May, 2019 | Harokopio University of Athens, Greece Bulletin of the Geological Society of Greece, Sp. Pub. 7 Ext. Abs. GSG2019-356 Assessment of the Geomorphic Impacts of the Flash Flood Event of 15 November 2017 along the Shore of Eleusis Bay (Attica, Greece) D. Griva1, I. Parcharidis1, E. Karympalis1 (1) Harokopio University, Dep. of Geography, El. Venizelou 70, 17671, Athens, Greece, [email protected] Greece experiences a variety of catastrophic weather events that are frequently followed by severe consequences on social and economic activity. Flash floods have caused tremendous loss of life and property over the past decades (Papagiannaki et al., 2013). The most deadly flood in Greece in the last 40 years occurred on November 15th 2017 in the western part of the region of Attica. A high intensity convective storm with orographic effects reaching up to 300 mm in 8 hours (200mm in only 3 hours) locally in a small area (18 km x 4 km zone) of the western and southern slopes of Pateras mountain caused flash floods along the streams of Agia Aikaterini, Soures and Koulouriotiko with extensive damages in the towns of Mandra and Nea Peramos and the loss of 24 people. Basin-average precipitation rates reached 57 mm/h over Soures stream, 41 mm/h over Agia Aikaterini stream and 140 mm/h in the core of the storm. It is noteworthy that a hydrological simulation study resulted in discharge values about 115 m3/s and water level values exceeding 3 m in Soures and Agia Aikaterini streams which caused the flash flooding around the Mandra area (Varlas et al., 2019). -

The workcamps aim to support families that encounter difficulties, by providing their children the opportunity to spend a quality summer time at school through creative activities. Work: Volunteers participating in the workcamp will host children (6-12 years old) during their free summer time and organise a fun and divert daily schedule. They will organize athletic activities, workshops, artistic events, theatrical plays, environmental and cross-cultural education and much more. Volunteers will work with children from Monday to Friday from 8:00H to 15:00H. The first Sunday of the workcamp will be a training and introduction necessary for the following weeks. Some afternoons will be used to prepare activities for the kids for the following days. The daily activity program for the children will be fixed by a team of pedagogues and introduced to the group of volunteers on the first Sunday of the workcamps. The pedagogues will be present throughout the programme. Accomodation and food: Volunteers will be accommodated in a primary school in Nea Peramos. The accommodation is basic but adequate; volunteers will sleep on the floor in the classrooms of the school.
