The History of the Cypriots of Cyprus .....

Postby Oracle » Thu Sep 11, 2008 11:15 pm

For me, the ancestry of the Cypriots of Cyprus goes back some several thousand years of (turbulent) history.

But then I am a Greek Cypriot. :D


It seems our more recent invaders span as far back as ....... ooohhh .... let me see :? ........... halil, what do you think?

So what point in Cyprus' history represents the culmination of your Cypriotness?

What I want to know is what age did your understanding of language start......You know quite well what he means but as usual your Nazi genes have kicked in and you are playing the fool. :roll: :roll: :roll:

What does he mean Zan?

Presuming it is to do with the achievement by EOKA/Makarios, of partial self-determination for Cyprus ...... I asked him what was the TC contribution towards this 1960 pivotal point, which made him feel like a "TC" .... and there is as yet no reply.

He means that he does not want to discuss what went on before because it does not matter. Cyprus for Cypriots was formed for the first time in 1960. Before then we were ruled by who ever wanted to stop by and take control of the island. He does not want to argue like Piratis and I have done about who came first..the chicken or the egg. As we established last night it was the egg. Out of that egg came the mutation that was the first republic of Cyprus. that was our era and we blew it. Now we have had to evolve as two separate entities in two different continents and the differences have become greater than we expected. Repect must be paid o both species but he respects our ancestral lineage. Comprende???

Goobledegook Zan .... :roll:

I'll wait for halil to explain.

We have your view ... and I understand fully now why you feel so little for Cyprus that you want to split it ..... since it's not Cyprus and its long historical lineage that matters to you.

The nomadic culture perhaps .....

This is what he said Oracle......


First of all before we blame others we must blame our self first .
forget about colonial time for a while ....we had troubles before 60 some how we did get chance to have independent Cyprus and we did have it only for years .... where were we that time ? God gave us brain Magnus ...We must use it for right things .... what happened ?
Turkey ,Greece or UK was giving guns for us to kill each other ....No , no magnus .... it wasn't like that ..... u know who wanted what and what was his and his friends idea .... how they get the power to do such a things from public Magnus.... Without public support they were just Makarios and Grivas .

what for they were getting those tanks ? Cyprus was under the guarantees of the UK,Turkey and Greece .... 3 of them were NATO members....

the things you are saying was before ROC days Magnus .... I don't care about what was happened before 1960 .I do care what was happened during the ROC times . We must question ROC days not the past .

For me my history as a Turkish Cypriot start from 1960 to present day .

Easy peasy!!!


1. Greeks have never ruled Cyprus...Just about everyone else has. i was being polite and not mentioning the Ottomans so i said we Cypriots and we were but two distinct people. 1960 gave us our first republic EVER!!!!


2. The TCs helped EOKA/Makarios gain independence by preventing ENOSIS with Greece because if that had been achieved it we would not have had self determination but would have been slaves to Greece. we saved them from themselves.
