may i can comment here something as a former tourist.The greeks are right.The turkish guide never mentioned that this is greek heritage.He never said the word ancient greek,but anatolian.Somebody who doesn't know history well get confused.That's a mistake from your side.Telling the historical truth is not bad.

[mparmparos]

I want to say it's your unluck..Because i am into the tourism events here and never coincide such a terrible guide..But have you even visited Ephesus?Or you were here just  for sea sun fun tourism?

[corlenana]

yes i visited many places in turkey,i went for cultural holidays cause sea and sun and fun i have in france (home)as well.

Guys you should take care about your guides in many places cause many people know historic facts.A reason why i prefer to visit other countries is that they are not denying their heritage.This is sad very sad for you in turkey.I wrote a letter to the tourism agency of france and many others as well.This is world heritage ,denying the facts is lying about world history!!!!

[mparmparos]

but i still cant understand how your idiot guide didnt tell anything about the heritage of he city by not seeing the marks of Greek presence since the ancient times.And havent you ever seen an antique city in the borders of Turkey?

[mparmparos]

I can accept unconscious for majority of Turkish people,but as state,they really care about this because over all,they are historical worths and definitely contribute to Turkey's image and tourism anyway.And for example Ephesus has been digged for more than a century also Turkey intentionally appoint an Austrian excavation chief to lead the other Turkish archaeologists

mparmparos:(why:( you showing our monuments as yours??its a bit unfair do you think?:(

[mparmparos]

And one more thing.White Tower of Salonica was built by us and you know its importance for Salonica tourism.That's the same.

thanks thats very interesting

Even though, there is some ancient neolithic link in some Cypriots to Cyprus, many of them arrived from Mother Land Anatolia & Greece or orient, like Syria, Lebanon, Egypt, Palestine in ancient times, as well. Cyprus is a melting pot of neighboring regions, since ancient times

Anatolian people have lighter skin in Northern Anatolia & Western Anatolia, but there are many exceptions, as well. In the east & south it gets darker. In Northern Greece, you can find lighter skin people, other parts darker & tanned skin are more common.

[cypriotenglish]

thanks, would you say that cypriots would have also descended from anatolia? or are we from the neolithic peoples that were already there? i have turkish cypriot and greek cypriot blood and have drk features like hair, eyes and even dark tanned skin, would u say that would be a anatolian trait and if so what peoples of anatolia would u say?

[thraciensis]

I would love to assist you. I searched many dna studies, like Stanford University of US & many others. There is no question that today's Thracian-Anatolian people's important percentage are linked to ancient Anatolian -Mediterrenean civilizations.

[cypriotenglish]

hey im cypriot, and would love to research anything that may suggest that i may dna wise anyay descend from a ancient group of people, im interested could you enlighten me please on this research im it won't be too much??
