Take your Minoan tossings to a Balkan forum for all the relevance they have to Cyprus! :roll:

Well, you might consider yourself to be a Middle Eastern Arab, but the majority of Cypriots happen to be of the same stock as Cretans and other Europeans. :P

The trivia with which you concern yourself!

I think we can safely assume your origins go back to Strofades islands ( dwelling place of the harpies :shock: )

Dumb assumption just like the assumptions of that uneducated Paphian goat Miltiades. You and him are like the same daft person... :)

Oh dear, you are worried. I sympathize. I do realize the science of Genetics and Archaeology are not good news for Turks. Much easier to keep on dwelling in ignorance and historical revisionist entertainment. :P

'Here the repellent harpies make their nests,
They have broad wings, with razor sharp talons and a human neck and face,
Clawed feet and swollen, feathered bellies; they caw
Their lamentations in the eerie trees'


Begone harpy you have no power here! :lol:

No I am not. You are wilfully selectively quoting. I pointed out in the same sentence it might also be Semitic. Semitic languages are not IE. There is no inconsistency.

That attempt dispicable low trick shows you in your true light, or rather true darkness.
