Ben dahi.

Michalis is a very simple creature ... takes comfort in that which no man has control over! His little brain cannot comprehend the myriad complexities of life

Inflexible calcified brain that he has, cannot accept that I, so different to him, was indeed born amongst the donkeys in a most typical Cypriot village, but which now can "boast" the most Anglophones

And he may have inadvertently shot himself in the foot, with whom he was trying to ally

It's OK ... he will not comprehend a word of this!

While you the pseudo scientist has an advanced knowledge for everything that can be disputed by basic human facts.

May I refer to you a reserach published 2 weeks ago by politis and sponsored by IBM published in an american journal that almost 20,000 Cypriots are of phoenician origin that have settled in Cyprus , Malta , Syria and Tynisia. Of course you will ignore this as does not allign with your pseudo facts. This is how simple minds work!

I have asked you this question before, but you refuse to offer an answer.

Are these 20,000 Pheonicians "pure", and do you classify yourself as one of them?

If you do classify yourself as Pheonician, then do you have any DNA proof?



GR, I will get back to you about your post. Your post requires a bit more care and attention, whereas your Choirokitian sidekick, Mihalis, can be dismissed in cavalier fashion. Anything for than 5 minutes of research time is clearly far too much time to waste on his simple views.

Fancy him saying there is evidence about the existence of 20,000 Phoenicians in Cyprus. In Australia we have 200,000 Aboriginals as well, but only about 10,000 of them a "pure" in this day and age. And white settlement in Australia commenced in 1776, whereas Cyprus has a much longer history where dozens of nationalities and sea people (including Ottomans) intermixed. Anyone who holds onto the notion that there is a "pure Cypriot" race is very misguided I am afraid.

Why when I reply to Oracle Paphitis respond and when I reply to Pahitis Oracle replies ? Are these in partnership?

Again Asutralia are millions while Cyprus are only thousands . 20,000 people in Australia carries no significance but in Cyprus it does. You also said that in Cyprus dozens of nationalities have co existed through the years so this is in dispute of what you originally claimed .

You gotta give it to Paphitis. in 6 years you've maintained an average of .6 posts per day. Since you met Paphitis you've gone up to 6 posts a day!

Paphiti, what you posted is the OLD theory which is now being slowly laid to rest including the alleged year of the Mycenaean “arrival” now moved to 1200-1300BC instead of 1600BC.

Please provide a reputable link please to back up your theory.

Please note that Wikipedia is not credible.

So your evidence above is instantly dismissed, whereas I could provide you with a few credible sources indicating that the Mycenaeans arrived around 1600BC.

In the past, archaeologists and historians would find 100 Persian style pots, as an example, in Scotland say and automatically assume that Persians “must have” overrun and dominated the Scots! Such was the stupidity of assumptions with which “history” was written. The “Mycenaean arrival” theory is also based on gadgets found on the island but it never occurred to anyone that they may have been purchased from them or even copied here.

What you say may have merit but there is 1 small problem.

Cyprus is dotted with Greek settlements, the most famous of which is Salamis. You should go and visit. I visited Salamis in 2004, and this is much more irrefutable evidence than any link we could post here on CF.

Another issue is that, if the Greeks did not settle and control the island in a substantial way, then the inhabitants of the island would not speak Greek, have the same religion, and adopt Hellenic culture and customs, unless the Choirokitians had Greek cable TV and were watching the Greek version of MTV or other Greek blockbusters and thus adopting a pseudo culture. Maybe they watched Dr Phillopoulos!

So these massive Greek migrations into Cyprus is what has created our present ethnic identity. The indigenous inhabitants, who only numbered a few hundred, as Cyprus was mostly unsettled, would have been consumed by the Hellenic influence.

As Oracle said earlier:

As I said before GR! it is a silly game to play to pretend that either the Cypriots or the Greeks were better than each other, because their strength lay in their sharing of a culture unrivalled elsewhere. This is what you are turning your back on in a putative solution to appease the Turks!

The above is an excellent point and it is deserving of much more attention, especially by you GR!

This is where our strenghts lay. Cypriot and Greek culture and identity are consummate. We are not complete unless we recognise this fact.

You need to stop denying your own identity. I can not fathom how you can attack your own self in such a derogatory way. Do you lack self respect? Surely not GR!

Mihalis, you once again fail to comprehend my question.

I asked you if these Pheonicians are still "pure" after milleniums of history?

I also asked you if you consider yourself as Pheonician, and if so do you have DNA evidence?

Surely you can understand that for only 10,000 "pure" aborigines to exist today in about 200 years of intermixing with whites, then how the hell can there be any "pure" Pheonicians in Cyprus?

Cyprus is dotted with Greek settlements, the most famous of which is Salamis.

Again, just because they feature a Greek style of architecture DOES NOT MEAN they were built by Greeks or the Greeks ruled Cyprus! It's precisely what they new theories are trying to get across.

So these massive Greek migrations into Cyprus is what has created our present ethnic identity. The indigenous inhabitants, who only numbered a few hundred, as Cyprus was mostly unsettled, would have been consumed by the Hellenic influence.

She is stupid and so are you. Here's the origin of "Greeks"... nothing to do with Cypriots. Dorians from further north...

Now please stop using my good name in vain.

I am a unique individual. One of a kind.

You are just upset because my views are different to yours.

It is you and Miltiades that deny Hellenic heritage to appease the Turks, and as such both of you and Bananiot are founding members of The Ronald McDonald Foundation.

Explain this then....

The Myceneans were also Greeks, and it was these Greeks that migrated to Cyprus on a massive scale.
