Great post DT.

I think I recognise some landmarks, like the bridge of Afania, the orange picking in Lefka and the trheshing in my grandfather's village near Morphou.

I had the orange picking down as probably Nikitas where my grandfather had his citrus fields.

He's since re-built the church of St Nikitas on his own in Latsia because he can't imagine life without something from that village.

These videos aren’t incredible they’re depressing! The sorry state that Ottomans reduced and preserved Cyprus to… :?

Great film DT. I like the 'queer' baboutsosiga. :lol: :lol:

The aguaduct at the end; was it the one near Larnaca? That was not Roman, that was built by Bekir Pasha. I know of remnants of a few more aquaducts in the Mesaorea but they are very fragmented.

Goodness me. I remember Necati Sager that young.

The hot-dog seller became a millioner over-night.
