Tarihi olaylara ırkçılık ile bakan bir sanatçı görünümünde Türkiye'ye Rum, Ermeni,Suryani soykırımı yapıldığını ama kendi yaptıklarını belirtmeyen birine bu övgüleri nasıl yapıyorsunuz şaşkınlıkla karşılıyorum!
@wizball sistematik olması ya da böyle acıların yaşanmış olması gerçeğine saygım var. ayrıca sistematik olması dağlardan inen çetelerin de yaptıklarını hafifletmiyor. lütfen bana soykırım tanımı üzerinden çıkıp devlet tarafından yapılanın soykırım olduğunu çeteler tarafından yapılanın ise soykırım olmadığını söyleme. siyasi görüşü ya da tarafsız olmasını beklemiyorum lakin sanatın içine böyle bir şeyin karışması kötü ve çirkin. bunu dikte edebilirken bizimlilerin bunu alkışlaması bir saçmalık. bu arada yunanca bilen, yunanistan'da yıllarca yaşamış biri olarak yazıyorum. bu konulara girmeden bunu yapabilir. savaşlarda tek taraflı suçlu olmaz. anadolu'da yaşanılan savaşlarda hiç kimse hiç bir halk kanatsız melek değildi. bunu diğer videolarında da görebilirsin. balkan halkları videosunda da sırpları cicileştiriyor. sanatçı olmak böyle bir şey demek değil bana gçre ve böylelerine saygım da yok
@wizball o zaman lütfen konuyu video üreticisi gibi ucuzlaştırıp farklı noktalara çekmeyelim. yeri burası değil ve bunu yapması da çok itici. sanatını siyasi görüşleri ile gölgelemek çok çirkin ve bunu kendi ülkesi dışındakilere de dikte etmekte. bunların kimseye faydası yok. bunları işlemekten, göstermekten iki ülke arasına nifak tohumları filizlendiriliyor. unutulmasın acılar ama her şeye aktarılıp insanlara da kin beslendirilmesin. size sağlıklı yeni bir yıl diliyorum. saygılar
Thank you Vasilis, my Grandfather came from Ag Ntag Meten in Gumushane, I hope our ancestors are smiling down on us knowing our culture survives, πολλή αγάπη από Αυστραλία !
We still speak Pontic Greek/Romeica (Although I dont know it very well my grandfather knows it very well) We Keep These Horons Alive and Play. We Black Sea people know our essence and origins well. Greetings from Gümüşhane(Argryopolis) 🇹🇷❤🇬🇷
The Black Sea (Crimea, Turkey, Caucasus) orthodox people are divided into 2 groups: 1) Turkic speaking Urums, 2) Romeika (Greek) speaking Romeys. There are still Turkic speaking Urums in Greece and Russia.
Thank you for this wonderful video! I’m Cypriot descent but relate to the atrocities to the people of Greek, Armenian, and Assyrians descent from the Black Sea area and Christianity around the world. 🙏 Thank you for sharing your dances and history of your heritage! ❤️
Maria, imparatorlukta 600 yıl, eksilmeden artarak var oldunuz. Sonra ne oldu? Düşün şimdi, senin yaşadığın ülke sömürgeci emperyalist ülkelerce işgal ediliyor. Senbu işgale yardım edermisin. Komşularını öldürüp paralarını çalıp tecavüz edermisin. Türkiteden kaçanların çoğu bu suçları işlediler gittikleri ülkede masum mağdur roller yapıp çalışmadan üretmeden geçirdiler. Tek işleri ve gelirleri Türk düşmanlığı. Halen kalanlar nasıl kalabilir, ihanete, suça karışmamış olanlar. . Seni seviyoruz.
My soul cries everytime I see how much the greeks have lost. So many innocent greeks, so many beautiful cities & villages throughout anatolia, filled wit culture, education & architecture have been burned to the ground. Greek people & greek culture have lived from north to south Balkans, to south Italy & Sicily all the way to the far east Anatolia & the north Levant. Now the Hellenic spirit survives from the same small rock, from where it all began. I can only pray & hope that in the future the beautiful Hellenic culture & spirit will survive. But with all the globalization, global politics. It will be a tough battle, not only for Greece, for a lot of other countries and cultures aswell.
Absolutely! As the Pontic song says "Even if Roman Empire fell, it blossoms and continues again". I will upload a video about the Greek, Armenian and Assyrian genocide on May 19, stay tuned. :) Thanks for watching!

Hi! I love this video as a Turk from Trabzon/Salpazari. Both Turkish and Greek people should learn being brother. We are living same faith, and our future is parallel with our relationship
Very well said Emil! It only brings goodness of learning to live in peace and harmony with friendship, without being stuck in the past but rather moving forward for a brighter future for all of us and simply just appreciate and enjoy the cultural dances from all over the world.
The " one nation, one race, one flag" doctrine is one of the worst things that ever happened to humanity, so sad to see what a bunch of stupıd and cruel racists can do to so many people, destroy the whole demography of a place and cause such terrible suffering. I've seen the Turkish film "Yüreğine Sor", how Greek people at that region had to hide their identity to escape persecution. On my visit to Eastern Black Sea region however ı've seen how a lot of that culture is still alive and many young people are getting informed about their true roots and embracing them more and more. Hopefully one day we will truly learn from the past, recognize the terrible mistakes and we will respect and enjoy one another's culture and see how much we share, how much we got from one another and we, all the peoples of Anatolia have in fact one soul, love and greetings from Istanbul ❤
Teleia! , I'm from the east of Turkey. As soon as the dancing communities open in Istanbul I would like to learn at least few of those dances :) Thanks for sharing the history and this compilation :)
@@VasilisDance I use your videos to compare with modern day Turkish dancing from the Black Sea area. It is clear that the Turks have made revision to the Pontic dances because of adopting laz and other cultures. Your videos help in understanding the dance from Greece and how the Greek dances affected other cultures around the area
Βασίλη, ανακάλυψα τη δουλειά σου πρόσφατα και με ενθουσίασε σε υπερθετικό βαθμό! Είναι κάτι που έλειπε από τα ηλεκτρονικά μέσα και εσύ το κάνεις υπέροχα και με ασυναγώνιστο επαγγελματισμό! Τα σέβη μου.
I used to live in Turkey, and I really don't understand what the Turkish government hopes to accomplish in denying the genocide. It wasn't even the modern republican government in power at the time so it's not like it'd reflect badly on them. I mean hell, the German government has recognised and apologised for the Holocaust, and made Holocaust denial a crime. Likewise the UK and America have apologised for the various genocides they've committed even though they themselves were the government in power at the time. But the Turkish government? Heaven forfend
people died from both side and for example dashnak killed thousands of people. Armenians and Muslims died in same war. But you see only one side..Politics could not manage because there was support of other countries.
@@ğözçsülke1224 of course Turks were also killed, my first question is, why lived Turks in Greece, Balkan, Asia Minor? Either they were Greeks, Armenians etc. who converted to Islam or they were occupiers. The second thing ist that genocid does not mean, that people were killed. Every day people die, in every war are victims to claim. Genozid means the planned extermination of people only on the basis of origin, religion etc
Well done Basili, Perfect music mix. I love the popular dances. Keep it up. One happy pontian patriot living in Melbourne, Australia. Panayiotis Kromlidis. ❤
My grandmother was forced to leave her village in sinop back in the day. The village she was born was called ayanjik. The people who made it back to Greece alive ware given land at epirus and astablished villages with the same names of places they used to live.. Sinop, samsun, trabzon, rize...Her village is still called archangel which i was told is the translation of the word ayanjik.
A bit late, but Turks of Sinop/Ayancık has very little Turkic admixture compared to (around %5 or something, rest being Greek) the rest of Sinop (an average Sinope resident derives most of his ancestry from Romans still) they are your brothers and sisters just changed religion and language.

When you show pontoon dances, you should know that the area from Trabzon to Georgia - Lazet - belonged to Georgia in ancient times and the Laz - Georgians live there, and they still live there. Greek historians even wrote about it in the first century. When the Turks conquered this territory, they named it Lazistan. Thus, the Pontic culture was not only created by the Greeks, it was also created by the Lazes from ancient times.
Ωραιω Βασίλη! Μπορείς να κάνεις ένα επεισόδιο για τους χορούς τα μέρη της Πελλοπόνησο? Η γονείς μου γεννηθήκανε στη Σούλι. Ένα χωριό τα δυτικά μέρη της Πελλοπόνησο. Φιλλάκια Γιανννης 🇬🇷❤️🇦🇺❤️🇬🇷
Πολλοί Έλληνικοι μύθοι ( η τιμωρία του Προμηθέα στον Καύκασο, Φρίξος και Έλλη, Αργοναυτική εκστρατεία, ο Ηρακλής έκλεψε την ζώνη της Ιππολυτης) δείχνουν ελληνική παρουσία από τα μυκηναϊκά χρόνια ήδη. Τον 8ο αιώνα π.Χ. ιδρύθηκε πρωτη η Σινώπη από Ίωνες ναυτικούς από τη Μίλητο. Μετά ιδρύθηκε η Σαμψους, η Τραπεζους και τα Κοτύωρα.
The origin of the Pontic Greeks is the Black Sea region, which was occupied by the ottomans in the 15th century. Unfortunately the Pontians could not free their home. Beginn of the 20th Century they had to live their homelands. Turkey wanted to construct a new state with homogenous population. Therefore all Christian people were killed or deported of their homes. Most of them died. The rest was officially “exchanged” with the Moslems, who used to live in Greece. A very sad story. 😢 Turkey denied until now to recognise the genocide of Greeks. The same does Turkey with Armenians and Assyrians, who had similar fate.
Μπράβο παλικάρι μου, αξιόλογη δουλειά!!!

When you show pontoon dances, you should know that the area from Trabzon to Georgia - Lazet - belonged to Georgia in ancient times and the Laz - Georgians live there, and they still live there. Greek historians even wrote about it in the first century. When the Turks conquered this territory, they named it Lazistan. Thus, the Pontic culture was not only created by the Greeks, it was also created by the Lazes from ancient times.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Ωραιω Βασίλη! Μπορείς να κάνεις ένα επεισόδιο για τους χορούς τα μέρη της Πελλοπόνησο? Η γονείς μου γεννηθήκανε στη Σούλι. Ένα χωριό τα δυτικά μέρη της Πελλοπόνησο.

What part of Greece did the Pontic Greeks originate from?
Πολλοί Έλληνικοι μύθοι ( η τιμωρία του Προμηθέα στον Καύκασο, Φρίξος και Έλλη, Αργοναυτική εκστρατεία, ο Ηρακλής έκλεψε την ζώνη της Ιππολυτης) δείχνουν ελληνική παρουσία από τα μυκηναϊκά χρόνια ήδη. Τον 8ο αιώνα π.Χ. ιδρύθηκε πρωτη η Σινώπη από Ίωνες ναυτικούς από τη Μίλητο. Μετά ιδρύθηκε η Σαμψους, η Τραπεζους και τα Κοτύωρα.
The origin of the Pontic Greeks is the Black Sea region, which was occupied by the ottomans in the 15th century. Unfortunately the Pontians could not free their home. Beginn of the 20th Century they had to live their homelands. Turkey wanted to construct a new state with homogenous population. Therefore all Christian people were killed or deported of their homes. Most of them died. The rest was officially “exchanged” with the Moslems, who used to live in Greece. A very sad story. 😢 Turkey denied until now to recognise the genocide of Greeks. The same does Turkey with Armenians and Assyrians, who had similar fate.
