	CYPRIOT FOLK DANCES
		Cypriot dances are mainly of the type performed by a confronted pair, invariably two men or two women, or men's solo dances displaying virtuosity and often performed with a hand-held object, either a sickle, knife, sieve, or tumbler.
		Apart from these common features, Cypriot dances are distinguished by steps peculiar to certain localities, such as stamping in one spot with the feet, crossed alternately in front of each other, in the "second" and particularly the "third" ""kartchilamas"" and in the "syrtos" for men.
		Improvization is another characteristic of Cypriot dances and may be attributed to their being performed by only two people and so to an overriding sense of comparison and, by extension, of competition.

	Olga Tsoudis, THE PORTRAYAL OF CRIME IN THE CYPRIOT MEDIA:
		This exploratory study of Cypriot media and crime focuses on evidence of coverage of social sanctions in the media’s portrayal of criminal justice.
		Because research on the relationship between Cypriot society and crime is scarce, examining the family is one avenue by which we can understand the society, since the family directly influences individual behaviors and the overall functioning of the society (Georgas et al.
		The majority of Cypriots state (1) that tourists have a negative effect on the Cypriot way of life; (2) that tourism changes the traditional culture; and (3) that tourism decreases the lifestyle quality of Cypriots who live in tourist areas (Akis et al.

	The Metropolitan Museum of Art - Special Exhibitions (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		While some Cypriot works were previously on view or integrated with related works from other cultures, this is the first time in more than fifty years that antiquities from Cyprus have been brought together in galleries devoted specifically to the Cesnola Collection.
		The new Cypriot Galleries are located on the second floor of the Museum, directly above the newly renovated galleries for Greek art and the future galleries for Roman art and adjacent to the galleries of ancient near eastern art.
		Cypriot art in the Classical period was influenced strongly by Greek models, and most of the works in this gallery reveal a mixture of Greek, Phoenician, and native elements.

	Ancient Scripts: Cypriot
		While the earliest examples dating from as early as 1500 BCE cannot be read, comparisons clearly show that the Cypriot syllabary seemed to have derived from Linear A, and therefore is like a sibling to Linear B.
		The Cypriot script continued to serve mostly for short dedicatory and funerary texts, but there are instances of longer, historical texts during the 5th century BCE.
		In the case of syllable-initial consonant clusters, all consonants except the one nearest to the vowel are represented with CV signs whose vowels agree with the vowel of syllable.

	Cypriot Greek - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It is also the first language of older Turkish Cypriots from specific villages (e.g Louroudjina and the Tylliria/Dillirga region) and most other older Turkish Cypriots would speak it as a second language.
		Cypriot diglossia makes the dialect one of only two Greek dialects currently still widely used; the other, Pontic language, is healthier in the former Soviet Union and Turkey than in Greece itself, where its use is increasingly emblematic.
		The modern Cypriot dialect is not an evolution of the ancient Arcadocypriot dialect, but evolved from Koine.

	Section II- GREEK CYPRIOT EAGERNESS...
		On 3 July 1990, the Greek Cypriot administration in South made a unilateral application under the usurped title of "the Government of the Republic of Cyprus" to become a member of the EU (then EC) purporting to act for and on behalf of the whole of Cyprus.
		A further legal aspect of the unilateral Greek Cypriot application is the restriction imposed by the international treaties, which had established the bi-communal 1960 Republic in any international organizations and pacts of alliance in which Greece and Turkey are not both members.
		The Greek Cypriot side has made no secret of this fact and is apparently prepared to make empty gestures of concession, such as purporting to accept "limited sovereignty" of the federated states, rotating Presidency etc., in order to achieve EU membership.

		The Cypriot Syllabary range was introduced with version 4.0 of the Unicode Standard and is located in Plane 1 (the Supplementary Multilingual Plane), which requires the enabling of surrogates in Windows 2000; these characters cannot easily be displayed in earlier versions of Windows.
		Cypriot syllabic writing (also known as Cypro-Minoan) appeared in Cyprus around 700 B.C., and for a few hundred years it was used for writing Greek and some local languages.

	* Turkish Cypriot Internet Society - Cyprus Problem *
		The Greek Cypriot co-founder partner of the 1960 partnership Republic resorted to violence in December 1963 and usurped the state machinery by force of arms.
		Turkish Cypriots were relieved from this agony and were saved from total extermination, only by the timely intervention of Turkey in 1974, after the Greeks had made a bloody attempt at the final takeover of Cyprus by Greece, through a coup d'etat organized by the junta in Athens and its collaborators in Cyprus.
		The Greek Cypriot administration is also trying to forward its application for full membership of the EU, which is based on the claim that it can unilaterally determine the future of the entire island and create international obligations on behalf of the Turkish Cypriot people as well.

	Cypriot EU Accession: An Impending Crisis in the Turkish-American Relationship
		The Greek Cypriot region in the South comprises 59 percent of the land area of the island and enjoys international recognition as the legal government of the Republic of Cyprus.
		While Cypriot leaders on both sides, as well as their Greek and Turkish patrons, must come to their own agreement, the United States, in conjunction with the UN and the EU, should urge this outcome, which is in the interests of both Cypriot communities.
		The Turkish Cypriots have expressed a desire for EU membership, and alienating them with an embargo that makes them poorer will further reduce their prospects for an eventual reconciliation with the South and a separate entry into the EU.
