Like I’ve stressed many times… just because archeologists haven’t yet found a clear cut continuation from one civilization to another doesn’t necessarily mean that it doesn’t exist! They simply haven’t found it yet! The same goes for the ancient history of every other country where there are gaps between major events that have yet to be filled and perhaps some may never be filled.
Therefore we should all take your word for it no questions asked. Right? (Pisteve kai mi erevna or believe and do not question).
Well, I don't blame you. It's only natural to be dogmatic since you didn't have a Hellenic education. I wonder, though. If you were a professor or teacher of history, for instance, would you be teaching these unsubstantiated theories of yours to your students? Telling them that you can not produce evidence but they would have to take your word for it and reproduce it later?

My claims are VERY NATURAL AND LOGICAL because all I'm saying is that most Cypriots come from ancient Cypriots!

And ancient Cypriots came from somewhere else. Or maybe you thought they grew out of the land of Cyprus?
Most ancient Cypriots came from Peloponnesus, which is why their language and culture prevailed, as they were the majority.

Trying very hard to avoid getting embroiled in your chicken and egg, schoolyard games; but it's highly unlikely, GR!, that the 'landmass' of Cyprus was inhabited before any of the landmasses of the other Greek regions, in particular the mainland.
- There are much older examples, but fossils from 500,000+ years have been found in the Petralona Caves (Halkidiki) relating to proto-artisans.
I've asked you before to stop diminishing Cyprus' role with these constant comparisons of yours to the other, many, regions of the Greek nation. The whole is greater than the sum of the parts.

Unlike the Greeks who descended from Mt Olympus as cupids!Most ancient Cypriots came from Peloponnesus, which is why their language and culture prevailed, as they were the majority.
Unsubstantiated bollocks! Cyprus was inhabited way before Greece...
