1911054699Attaleia Adalia Antalya: Typg. N. K. Meli or Mele 1911. Soft cover. Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Original wrappers. Large 8vo. 21 x 16 cm. In Greek Modern. 21 p. First and only edition of this exceedingly rare and one of the earliest church regulations of the Greek Orthodox community of Attalia Antalya. Attalia was not a large urban center or major trading hub but neither was the Greek Community marginal and it was well integrated into the regional economy. It was different from other areas in Asia Minor due to a combination of factors ranging between demography geography local Orthodox leadership and the city's social milieu. In contrast to the West-coast cities and many villages in Asia Minor with Orthodox majorities Attalia's population was only about one-third Orthodox. The main area of difference in Antalya was the Community leadership which was key to the maintenance of cordial relationships between Christians and Muslims and the secular and ecclesiastical elements of Orthodox leadership in Antalya tended to cooperate for collective benefit. Throughout this period a local elite managed to control education and other Community institutions perpetuating an identity that was compatible with the local Ottoman context. In this last period the Greek Community printed several books and tractates including a brief history of Antalya and this "regulation book" in the Meli Printing House which was the only printing house of the Greek Community in Antalya. Only one institutional copy is located in OCLC 1030075331 Suna Kiraç Library of the Koç University. <br/> <br/> Typg. N. K. Meli [or Mele] paperback

Each Testament has its own title page and the mention of the Apocrypha on both suggests that it was intended to form an appendix to either of the Testaments if they were issued separately.

On January 30 1923 the Convention and Protocol Concerning the Exchange of Greek and Turkish Populations was signed and entered into force. According to Article 1 of the agreement a compulsory population exchange was to be carried out between Muslims residing in Greek territory and Greek Orthodox Christians settled in Turkish territory beginning on May 1 1923 Oran. The primary rationale behind this exchange was the desire of both countries to create ethnically homogeneous societies within their respective borders. Article 2 of the agreement stipulated that Greeks residing in Istanbul and Muslims residing in Western Thrace were excluded from the exchange and considered established residents établis. However the different interpretations of this article by the two countries led to significant disagreements Metintas. These disagreements persisted for a long time and when no resolution could be reached the matter was brought before the League of Nations. Still no solution emerged and the case was eventually referred to the Permanent Court of International Justice which issued a non-binding advisory opinion. Yet the issue remained unresolved Firat. Bilateral negotiations continued for years and finally led to the signing of the Ankara Agreement between the two governments on June 10 1930.

The subsequent growth of the collection especially in the sections dealing with Crete and Cyprus has made it necessary to divide the volume into two parts the second of which is the first to be ready for issue'. <p>The preface in Part I 1925 adds that 'The lapse of time consequent on the interruption of the War and the further growth of the collection have caused an additional sub-division. The Second Part of Vol. I is devoted to the special groups of Cypriote Early Italian and Etruscan Vases.
