History of Greek and Roman Egypt: Encyclopedia II - Egypt under Muhammad Ali and his successors - Greek campaign

Muhammad Ali was fully conscious that the empire which he had so laboriously built up might at any time have to be defended by force of arms against his master Sultan Mahmud II, whose whole policy had been directed to curbing the power of his too ambitious vassals, and who was under the influence of the personal enemies of the pasha of Egypt, notably of Khosrev, the grand vizier, who had never forgiven his humiliation in Egypt in 1803. Mahmud also was already planning reforms borrowed from the West, and Muhammad Ali, who had had plent ...

History of Greek and Roman Egypt: Encyclopedia II - Cleopatra VII of Egypt - The race debate

There is often a debate between Egyptologists and Afrocentric historians as to what race Cleopatra belonged to. Egyptologists say that Cleopatra was descended from the Ptolemaic dynasty, a Macedonian family, whose patriach Ptolemy I Soter was once a general for Alexander the Great. Ptolemy I was the son of Arsinoe of Macedonia by either her husband Lagus, a Macedonian nobleman, or her lover Philip II of Macedon. Egyptologists say the Ptolemaic family tree indicates that there was a great deal of interbreeding in the family, and that b ...

History of Greek and Roman Egypt: Encyclopedia II - Greek Old Calendarists - History

Up to the early 20th century, the Eastern Orthodox Church used the Julian Calendar universally, not accepting the calendar reforms of the Roman Catholic Council of Trent (1545-1563) and the then-current Roman Pope Gregory XIII. (By then, the Orthodox Church had been out of communion with the Roman Catholic Church for several centuries.) Traditionally Orthodox Christian countries, including Russia, Greece, and Romania, did not use the Gregorian Calendar for civil and governmental affairs up through the first decade of the 20th century.

History of Greek and Roman Egypt: Encyclopedia II - Cypriot Greek - History and Literature

The modern Cypriot dialect is not an evolution of the ancient Arcadocypriot dialect, but evolved from koine. Cyprus was cut off from the rest of the Greek-speaking world from the 7th to the 10th century A.D due to Arab attacks. It was reintegrated in the Eastern Roman Empire in the 10th century to be isolated again in 1191 when it fell to the hands of crusaders. This linguistic isolation preserved a lot of Mediev ...

History of Greek and Roman Egypt: Encyclopedia II - History of the Jews in Egypt - Under the Turks 1517-1922

On Jan. 22, 1517, the Turkish sultan, Selim I., defeated Tuman Bey, the last of the Mamelukes. He made radical changes in the affairs of the Jews, abolishing the office of nagid, making each community independent, and placing David ibn Abi Zimra, at the head of that of Cairo.

It was during the reign of Salim's successor, Suleiman II, that Aḥmad Pasha, Viceroy of Egypt, revenged himself upon the Jews because De Castro had revealed (1524) to the sultan his designs for independence (see Aḥmad Pasha; Abraham de Castro). The "Cairo ...
