 Tenedos - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tenedos, named Bozcaada by its inhabitants and officially, is a small island in the Aegean Sea, part of Çanakkale Province in Turkey.
Spanish traveller Clavijo having visited the island in 1401 wrote that it was deserted, but he found many vineyards, fruit trees, rabbits and the ruins of a great castle.
Turkish policy consistently undermined both the spirit and letter of this commitment: Tenedos was started to be called by its Turkish name, Bozcaada, officially; this name had been used by the Ottoman cartographer, Piri Reis, in the sixteenth century.
