Title A name given to the resource "Kataklysmos" Festival at Larnaca, EUROPA Issue National Festivals and National Days, Republic of Cyprus Subject The topic of the resource Postage stamps--Cyprus--History Γραμματόσημα--Κύπρος--Ιστορία Description An account of the resource “Kataklysmos"", meaning flood, is a religious popular festival celebrated only in Cyprus and coincides with Pentecost Day. The earliest story of the flood appears in the Epic of Gilgamesh in the Mesopotamian city of Uruk and was written around 2125 B.C. It recounts how for six days and six nights the winds blew, torrent, tempest and flood overwhelmed the world. When the seventh day dawned the storm had subsided, the sea had grown calm and the flood abated. (Extract from Rachel Storm, Myths and Legends of the Ancient Near East p.92) In Greek mythology the story appears as Deucalion’s flood when Zeus, angered by the impious sons of Lycaon let loose a great flood on earth meaning to wipe out the whole race of mankind. Deucalion however had been warned by his father Prometheus the Titan to build an ark and to board it with his family. The word ""Kataklysmos"" also appears in the book of Genesis and according to the Bible, God who had decided to destroy mankind for the evil and sin which reigned everywhere, warned the pious Noah to build an ark and take on board his family and a pair (male and female) of all living creatures. The ""Kataklysmos"" celebrations take place at the seaside and are unique in their splendour and magnificence. The Development Board of Ayia Napa, in conjunction with the village authorities organizes various activities including games, boat races, swimming competitions, folk dances, and popular songs in rhyming verse sung by different parties in competition with each other, and musical performances by artists from Cyprus and abroad. But the most popular custom of the day is the sprinkling of water at one another symbolizing the purification of body and soul.

Title A name given to the resource Baptism (Monastery of St. John Lampadistis), Christmas Issue Wall Paintings, Republic of Cyprus Subject The topic of the resource Postage stamps--Cyprus--History Γραμματόσημα--Κύπρος--Ιστορία Description An account of the resource Baptism (Monastery of St. John Lampadistis) . The renowned contemporary philosopher Ioannis Theodorakopoulos wrote in the introduction of his work about Goethe's Faust, that to approach God, man with his logic conceived philosophy, with his feelings religion and with his imagination the arts. To draw nearer to God religion used both logic and fantasy. With fantasy it considerably elevated religious art, which we can so easily admire even in the smallest of Cyprus villages and also around the open countryside. In the tiny population of a village that lacks intellectual personalities or spiritual leaders, one can still come across aspects of intense spirituality that overcome the absence of other intellectual activities. First of these is the church with its daily contacts with the residents as well as the arts and crafts; its Orthodox architecture and style which the Nobel winner and poet Odysseas Elytis calls ""celestial temples"", built primarily in the shape of a rectangular or square cross representing the earth, supports an enormous dome that resembles and supplements the heavens. And then we have the music ""Oh My Sweet Spring"" which glorifies the lament of the Virgin Mary for the loss of her child the Christ during the Holy Week culminating in the Good Friday Services. One has but to glance at the church murals in Cyprus to realize that the pictures are not only an effective medium of communication with the people who often were illiterate of the Gospels, but a means of communication with God in the metaphysical which is embraced and so beautifully expressed in the Byzantine artistic style. Wooden iconostasis and pulpits, magnificent belfries, admirable ecclesiastical works, fonts, vestments, embroidered mourning coverings, sepulchral Good Friday processions, illustrated Gospels and great artistic faith offerings are but a small part of the unrevealed spiritual legacy that has survived uninterruptedly from the very early days of Christianity to the present times.
