no she was from Hydra. at the time the island was extremely pure. those islands never really came under ottoman rule, because of their strong navy force, that later helped in the revolution

Nene Hatun was among the civilians who fought against Russian infantry in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Erzurum_%281877%29 She used a hatchet and often depicted with carrying her baby either with her off hand or strapped to her back.

Rastapopoulopolos, I hate to break it to you, but she looks like a sand person and is wearing a hijab in one of your pictures and a turban in the other. She's clearly some kind of Turk or Arab.

>>53629278
maybe that's how greeks look

give me a good example of a pure looking greek woman please

I see. I respect Shintoism beause respects nature and ancestors and have not dogmas of faith and fanaticism as Islam or Christianity.

Hydra was not slavicised but it was turkified though.

Exactly. Not every nation is obsessed with all is citizens looking like fuggin alien clones.

Also, veils are not specific to Arab culture you paganshit. West and co. dropped it all and Muslims are in process of doing so.

I dont know why, but here in Kazakhstan Tomyrise considered as a heroine, which protected her motherland from persians, and she is very popular here, but she is Iranian
>>
>>53629697
is this true? they werent really under turk control until 18th century and they activelly revolted

I dont know much about their ethnic purity, but they really dont look turkified at all.
>>
>>53630169
what you fail to understand is that the turkified inland population migrated to the cyclades numerous times trying to escape either Turks, slavs, or Venetian heretics.

We actually don't have a female icon like Joan of Arc, Queen Elizabeth, or La Malinche

Harriet Tubman, Anne Hutchinson, Sakagawea, and the apocryphal Molly Pitcher are some less prominent equivalents

>>53631547
thanks m8

last quick question... what does it mean to be turkified? also why are only mainland greeks turkified and not also cretans, cypriots, and people from peloponese?

did the greeks there get raped out of existence?
>>
>>53627232
That's a shame. She was fucking awesome.

Populations of Macedonia/Thessalia are mixed with ottoman population/vlach population.

Crete is largely arab mixed due to Saracens.

Cyclades/Eastern Aegean is a mixture of both ottoman and arab.

Eptanisa is latin. Peloponese/Aitolokarnania is mostly slavic.

Cypriots are mostly phoenician.

Apparently Mani in pelloponese has the least slavic/araboturkic admixture. I feel due to their pirate past that they have more of a latin/saracen admixture rather than a purely greek one.

There are exceptions to this rule, if you want to get a better idea check some greek history. Population migrations are fairly simple.
