RHODES, GREECE 1 The Island of Rhodes is the furtherest east of the Aegean Isles and is only ten miles from the coast of Asia Minor. The only town of any size on the island is the Capital, Rhodes. It is located at the northeast extremity of the island and has a population of about thirty thousand. The City of Rhodes was founded in 4108 B.C. by the Dorian Colonists of the island. It soon became an important center of commerce and learning. The colossus of Rhodes, a gigantic bronze statue over 100 feet high, erected at the entrance of the harbor was one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. The great bronze statue was of the sun god Helios, the god of Rhodians, or of Appolo. Erected in 280 B.C., legend has it that the giant work stood astride the entrance of the harbor, but more probably it stood at one side of the entrance. It was overthrown by an earthquake in 224 B.C. but long remained, even in fragments, as an object of wonder. It was bought and carried away in 656 A.D. by a ccjunk dealern. Rhodes has been ruled by Greeks, Macedonians, and Romans, and at the division of the Roman Empire it fell to the eastern or Byzantine, portion. In 1309 it was seized by the Knights Hospitalers, a cruisading order, who rebuilt and fortified it against the Turks. Walls and towers of the fortification still stand. Several Turkish expeditions were led against the town, but it was not until 1511 that the religious order was forced from the island. Turkish rule continued until 1912 when the island was occupied by Italy. The peace treaty ofter World War II ceded the Dodecanese, including Rhodes to Greece. ATHENS Athens is situated at the southern end 'of the fertile plain of Attica, where from earliest times cereals, olives, figs and vines have grown in abundance. This fact, and also the fact that it was far enough away from the sea to enjoy security against a hostile fleet, favoured the growth of the ancient community, which laid the foundations of Europe's civilisation. The most prominent feature in the Athenian landscape is the Lycabettus 11112 ft.j which directly overhung the ancient city. Nearby stands the oblong mass of the Acropolis f512 ft.j with its steep sides. West the Acropolis is the rocky Areopagus seat of the famous council. Further west is the ccHill of the Nymphsn f341.ft.j, on which stands the Observatory. The old glory of Athens was conquered by Rome. Later it fell under the influence of Byzantium. During all these centuries it was gradually robbed of its works of art. From 1458 to 1833 Athens was ruled by the Turks. Twice the Venetians attacked the Turks at Athens, in 1466 and 1687. The Parthenon was blown up during the latter attack but the Venetians withdrew a year later. Francesco Morosini's men broke many of the Parthenon's sculptures which they intended to take to Venice. Lord'Elgin transfer- red many of the sculptures to London in 1812. In 1821 the Greek insurgents attacked the Turks and occupied the Acropolis in 1822. The Turks took it again in 1826, till the final liberation of 1833. SUDA BAY, CRETE The visit to Suda Bay was of little interest to most of the crew. A large portion of the Sixth Fleet was there for replenishment, and due to the limited facilities ashore for absorbing liberty parties, only four per cent of the crew of each ship present could be granted liberty. Although Suda Bay and Canea were of some importance during World Wr II, there is little there of historical interest. Crete was the site of one of the 'great Mediterranean civilizations of ancient times - the ancient Minoan civilization - which flourished on Crete from 2000 to 1000 B. C. and was centered around Heraklion, which was too remote from Suda Bay for a visit during our brief stay in Crete. Cretan history of more modern times was a struggle between the Christian population and the Moslem Turks of Crete. In 1913 Crete was freed from the Turks and was incorporated.in the Greek administration. Only a few miles across the Akrotiri peninsula from Suda Bay is Canea, the capital city of Crete and the seat of the Governor General. Canea WHS built originally by the Venetians in 1252. The old Venetian city walls and ininarets from the Turkish occupation dating from 1654 can be seen during 21 tour of the city.
