Yeah, especially knowing that a TC designed it!

Was Makarios exhibiting "feminine logic" when he patronised the TCs to make them feel inclusive?

Original TC? Huh! Think again ...

Huh?

On a different note, don’t you just love those totally inaccurate and misleading ancient maps? I’ll bet more ancient sailors died using them than those that didn’t!

Might explain the colossal number of Mycenaean shipwrecks scattered along our coastline.

But, I was alluding to Makarios' reasons for choosing the "TC created" RoC flag. He was already sympathetic to this ancient map plus Byzantine eagle:

The Mazotos ship was a late classical period (mid 4th century B.C) merchant ship that was located in the sea of the modern village of Mazotos, at a depth of 45 m. The ship was carrying wine amphorae mainly from Chios but also from other north Aegean islands. Previous research at the site, which began in November 2007, focused on the photographic and drawing documentation of the shipwreck. During 2009, in collaboration with the research group of the Laboratory of Marine Geology and Physical Oceanography of the University of Patras, geophysical prospecting was undertaken with the use of a proton magnetometer and a sub-bottom profiler, in order to investigate the extent of the shipwreck’s non visible sections.

What makes you think it’s Mycenaean? And at 3500 BC?

Do not put words in my mouth. Read the entire article and wipe that smirk off your face.

Here is another shipwreck:

http://www.mcw.gov.cy/mcw/DA/DA.nsf/0/1 ... enDocument

The ancient ship was 14,75 m long and 4,30 m wide and prior to it sinking it used to travel from the Aegean islands or the Ioanian coast to Cyprus and perhaps even to Syria. The ship traveled during the middle of the 4th century B.C., at the time of Alexander the Great and his successors.

Cyprus is now launching sea surveys where it believes dozens of such vessels exist.

It is the government of the RoC that is now conducting sea surveys in an area, as reported by reuters, where it believes dozens of such ancient ships exist. And if you read whats coming out of the RoC's Department of Antiquities...these ships were "used to travel from the Aegean islands or the Ioanian coast to Cyprus".

Cyprus is Byzantine and Makarios chose well ...




<---same yellow --->

errr, the colour on the left's white... and the island's golden, not yellow.

You need to tweak your colour controls.

it's meant to be copper (kypros), though. not yellow.

Dont you just admire her feminine logic?

Yeah, especially knowing that a TC designed it!

Next either you or Piratis will clain that Pres. Makarios chose the flag under duress and gun-point. Well, what can I say?
