What is undeniable is that in Cyprus, in the monuments and above all in the spoken language, there are undeniable Hellenic elements which are proof enough of the links with what went on before.
When GR can recite his denial of the above in pure Choirokitian dialect I might be otherwise convinced.
That's because you ASSUME that your native language was made in Greece!
I have already proven that…
(1) The Greek language is an offshoot of the Cypriot alphabet; Cypriots were reading & writing while Greeks were living in the “dark ages”!
(2) That Christianity was spread to Greece and other parts of Europe by Cypriots!
(3) That Cypriot civilization existed from at least 7,000BC in Choirokoitia before anything Greek or Turkish existed!
THAT IS CULTURE!
