>ccording to some ancient authorities, Stasinus (Greek: Στασῖνος) of Cyprus, a semi-legendary early Greek poet, was the author of the Cypria, in eleven books, one of the poems belonging to the Epic Cycle that narrated the War of Troy. According to Photius others ascribed it to Hegesias (or Hegesinus) of Salamis or elsewhere even to Homer himself, who was said to have written it on the occasion of his daughter's marriage to Stasinus. At Halicarnassus, according to an inscription found in 1995, local tradition ascribed it to a local poet, a "Kyprias" (Κυπρίας).[1][2]

Because everytime Cyprus is brought to discussion it turns in to a shitstorm between Greeks and Turks.

>>3272633
How did they manage to stay Greek for centuries even though it's closest to the Middle East than Europe?

WRONG

>>3272716
But the majority of the island is still Greek. Also that's pure nigger-tier behaviour, Turks do things like this and then wonder why people don't like them.

Isn't that Crete? Pretty sure its Crete

>>3272922
No, it is not, Philistines used Cypro Minoan and were dressed as bronze age Cypriots, not as Cretins, they were also buried like Cypriots and used Mycenean pottery of the Cypriot and Cilician variant, they were Cyprtiots with maybe a little Minoan-Mycenean admixture but they were mostly Cypriot

>>3272633
I think it' also has the most aesthetic coastline of any island in the med. That peninsula in the northeast is just so dashing.

>New discoveries reveal that the Philistine cities of ancient Israel were laid out like Bronze Age cities in Cyprus, unlike the haphazard structure of the surrounding Canaanite towns. Also, archaeological investigation in Philistine Gath itself found metal-smelting technologies alien to Canaanite traditions, but akin to techniques found in Cyprus of thousands of years ago.

You're right if Turks turned into niggers it would probably be an improvement.
