British policy towards Cyprus and the Cyprus question, 1878-2005
(2005) Şar, Celal
This master’s thesis aims to analyze British policy towards Cyprus and the Cyprus question in the period of 1878 to 2005. British policy towards Cyprus is mainly for military aspects. Cyprus has an importance for Britain, as it has SBAs in the island especially for intelligence, communication. British policy is directed more towards the external circumstances than the internal affairs in Cyprus, such as considering Soviet threat. Britain also considers its role in the UN and EU. The most important international organizations such as EU and UN continue to be involved with the Cyprus Question. Britain, as a former colonial power in Cyprus continues its policy towards Cyprus in the UN and US with the aim of not losing its military sovereignty over any solution appropriate for the other states.

Capitalizing on the cold war: Turkey, Greece and the Cyprus problem, 1963-1974
(2018-07) Bayraktar, Orhun
The Cold War brought about not only a superpower rivalry in a bipolar world but also an environment from which relatively small and weak states could benefit. Taking into account the very existence and significance of the superpowers in the Cold War atmosphere, this thesis examines the Cyprus policies of Turkey and Greece between the years 1963-1974. I have sought to answer to what degree these two states have struggled to exploit the superpowers, namely the US and the USSR, in their own interests, and how successful they have been. In the light of the findings obtained, it has been seen that both Turkey and Greece did their best to win the superpowers over during all of the major crises (1964, 1967, and 1974), and accordingly, managed from time to time to capitalize on the cold war, in particular détente. That is to say, in a period when the superpowers went into the effort of de-escalating tension, especially between themselves, the two NATO allies, Turkey and Greece, began to rub shoulders with the USSR when necessary, and the Soviets remained an unignorable option for these two countries as long as the US did not meet their expectations. Crucial primarily due to its geographical location, Cyprus attracted the attention of the US and USSR as well, and the superpowers did not hesitate to side with any of the parties in accordance with their regional interests.

Çatışmalar arasında bir ada: Kıbrıs
(Bilkent University, 2022) Türkoğlu, Kaan; Dilli, Emir Şahin; Öner, Pelin; Ekinci, İlkay; Balaban, Hüseyin Emre
19.yüzyıl itibariyle Osmanlı’nın hakimiyetini kaybettiği Kıbrıs adası İngiltere’nin yönetimine girdi. Fakat ada halkının önemli bir çoğunluğunu oluşturan Rumlar tarafından Kıbrıs’ın Yunanistan hakimiyeti altına girmesi isteniyordu. Bu durumun üzerine Rumlar İngiltere ile diplomatik yollarla anlaşmayı denediler. İstekleri yerine getirilmediğinde ise Kıbrıs’ı tamamen bir Yunan adası yapma hedefiyle çeşitli yollara başvurdular. İngiltere’ye karşı kurulan ancak sonrasında Kıbrıs’ta yaşayan Türk halkını hedef alan terör örgütlerine karşı gerek İngiltere’nin gerekse Türkiye’nin müdahalesi sonucunda Kıbrıs’ta çatışmalar baş gösterdi. Kıbrıslı Rumların Türklere karşı olan saldırgan tutumları sebebiyle Türk ve Rum kesimleri arasında yıllar sürecek olan çatışmaların temeli atılmış oldu. Kıbrıs Türklerinin Güney kesimden Kuzey kesime göç etmelerine neden olan Kanlı Noel Saldırısı’nın 1963’te patlak vermesiyle birlikte Kıbrıs’ın kaderi kesin olarak değişti. Türklerin Güney’den Kuzey’e zorunlu göçü ve Rumların sürdürdüğü saldırgan tutum sebebiyle yıllar süren şiddetli çatışmalar Kıbrıslı Türklerin yaşantısını bütünüyle değiştirdi. Kıbrıs olayları dönemin gazete haberlerinin de işaret ettiği üzere dünya siyasetinde de büyük bir etki bıraktı. Özellikle Türkiye’nin dış politikasını birçok açıdan şekillendirdi.

A countryside in transition: The Galinoporni-Kaleburnu Plain (Cyprus) in the passage from Late Antiquity to the early Middle Ages (ca. 600–ca. 850)
(Akademie Ved Ceske Republiky * Archeologicky Ustav, Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic, Institute of Archeology, 2018) Zavagno, Luca; Kızılduman, B.
This paper aims to both tip the chronologically-unbalanced rural surveys conducted on the island of Cyprus in the last decades (as focusing almost exclusively on the Roman and Late Antique period) and re-assess the traditional historiographical interpretation of the fate of local rural settlements and population in the passage from Late Antiquity to the early Middle Ages (i.e. between the late sixth to the early ninth century). Indeed, we cannot simply take for granted that at the time under scrutiny Cyprus was overwhelmed by Arab incursions turning the island into a no man’s land, severing commercial and shipping routes, bringing to an end any economic, social and cultural form of life in the countryside, causing massive depopulation and abandonment of prosperous rural villages along the coasts in favor of hastily built and fortified (often seasonal) hilltop settlements. In the light of the latter remark, the authors will use the preliminary results of a recent extensive rural survey conducted in the plain of Galinoporni/Kaleburnu on the Karpas peninsula to propose a picture of the Cypriot landscape as characterized by the early medieval resilience of the varied range of rural settlements (farms, hamlets and villages) dating back to previous centuries and by the lack of any catastrophic occupational gaps after the mid-seventh century.

Cyprus as an emerging player in the Eastern Mediterranean natural gas market: regional cooperation and prospects
(2018-08) Poteau, Sophie
This thesis analyzes the development of the Eastern Mediterranean natural gas market and the impact of regional conflicts on it. It will argue that the region is not stable enough to optimize its natural gas trade. As a matter of fact, the Cypriot conflict, as well as the Israeli-Lebanese conflict are preventing the region from fulfilling its economic potential and ambitions. Therefore, it is important for the region to solve its internal conflicts in order to make the natural gas benefit fairly to all the states involved in the market. The best way for the Eastern Mediterranean states to solve their conflicts is through regional cooperation. The European Union holds the power to influence the Eastern Mediterranean states towards regional cooperation. Indeed, the EU can provide incentives through the initiation of dialogue between countries, common projects and investments. In the Eastern Mediterranean natural gas trade from the producing states to Europe, Egypt could play the pivotal role of natural gas distribution platform at the crossroad between producing and consuming countries. The success of this project could lead to the economic development of Eastern Mediterranean states while providing the EU with a stronger energy security.

The Cyprus question: a window of opportunity in 2014?
(2014) Grigoriadis, I. N.
This April 2014 will mark the tenth anniversary of the Annan Plan referenda, the hitherto most comprehensive attempt to find a solution to a decade-long conflict on the island of Cyprus. Ten years ago most Greek Cypriots thought that the EU membership of the Republic of Cyprus could facilitate the conflict resolution process in the divided island and result in a solution closer to their expectations than the Annan plan per se. These expectations were not fulfilled.

The EU membership of a loosely centralised 'federal' Cyprus: a strategy of cooperation and conflict-mitigation
(Ankara Üniversitesi Siyasal Bilgiler Fakültesi Uluslararası İlişkiler Bölümü, 2002) Oğuzlu, H. Tarık
As the time approaches for the European Union to decide on the membership of the Island, the current ambiguous approach of the EU does not seem to offer to parties credible incentives to come to settlement. Instead, performances of the all interested parties so far have demonstrated that the 'cooperation-promoting, conflict-mitigating' character of the EU's accession process has not yielded the expected result. This paper argues that if the EU's current Cyprus policy leads to an early membership of the Greek Cypriot part of the Island as representing the whole Island, the risks to security and stability in the region would escalate. It further suggests that the EU needs to reconsider its current approach and needs to advocate the EU membership of a loosely centralised federal Cyprus.

Extreme geomagnetic field variability indicated by Eastern Mediterranean full-vector archaeomagnetic records
(Elsevier, 2020-02-01) Ertepinar, P.; Hammond, M. L.; Hill, M. J.; Biggin, A. J.; Langereis, C. G.; Herries, A. I. R.; Yener, K. A.; Akar, M.; Gates, Marie-Henriette; Harrison, T.; Greaves, A. M.; Frankel, D.; Webb, J. M.; Özgen, İlknur; Yazıcıoğlu, G. B.
The magnetic field of the Earth can exhibit considerable variations at short time scales, even as short as decades. The archaeomagnetic studies of Middle Eastern artefacts (mainly from Israel and Jordan) show evidence for an exceptionally high intensity period from 1050-700 BC which displays two distinct spikes over the Levant, the Levantine Iron Age Anomaly (LIAA). Its exact duration and geographical extent are still poorly known. Despite the wealth of ancient settlements, the extensive cultural heritage and a long history of trade and immigration, the archaeomagnetism of Turkey and Cyprus remains largely unexplored. This study presents a large data set of ancient directions and intensities from seven archaeological sites in the Eastern Mediterranean covering a time span of ∼2000 yrs. The recorded directions from thirteen sets of samples are coherent with our earlier findings, yet show significantly larger swings than existing field models. In particular, we confirm the very large swing in inclination we found earlier, from 1910-1850 BC, that is also captured by the Greek PSV curve, and shallower by more than 10◦than predicted by existing field models. Consequently, these models require substantial revision in this region. We were able to determine the archaeointensity from five sets of mud-bricks, from the thirteen attempted, allowing us to provide the full field vector. Furthermore, we present thirty-one new archaeointensity results from potsherds and mud-bricks that considerably enhance existing data, especially when a set of strict selection criteria is applied. Fourteen sets of potsherds from a single site (Tell Atchana) provide the longest sequence recorded so far in Turkey, from 2100 to 1350 BC. We find exceptionally high intensities of 145 and 175 ZAm2around 700 BC, in well-dated mud-bricks and potsherds from two different locations (Tell Tayinat and Kilise Tepe), supporting extreme geomagnetic field variability in the region. Moreover, these two high intensities confirm the younger spike of the LIAA in Turkey.

“Going to the extremes”: the Balearics and Cyprus in the early medieval Byzantine insular system
(Routledge, 2019-04) Zavagno, Luca
This contribution mainly focuses on Cyprus and the Balearics, islands located at opposite geographical extremes of the Byzantine Mediterranean, during the passage from Late Antiquity to the early Middle Ages. Historians have often regarded these islands as peripheral additions to the Byzantine heartland of the Aegean and the Anatolian plateau; this article argues that, in fact, archaeological and material indicators (such as ceramics, lead seals and coins), paired with the scarce textual sources, point to a certain degree of economic prosperity in the abovementioned islands during the period under scrutiny, suggesting that they continued to play an important role in the political, administrative and religious structures of the Byzantine Empire. A resilient insular economy and continuity of local production of artefacts was ensured by the persistence of demand from local secular and religious elites and regular, if infrequent, contacts with other areas of the Byzantine heartland or the Muslim Mediterranean.
