Description
An account of the resource
The Church of Agia Paraskevi, in the old village of Geroskipou in the Pafos district, is a three aisled vaulted basilica of five domes. It is the earliest example of this type of church in Cyprus and it embodies the characteristics of the early phase of the middle Byzantine Period. The original church had a cruciform plan.
The frescoes in the eastern dome have a uniconical decoration dating to the second half of the 9th century. Other frescoes date from the 10th to the 15th centuries. There is also an unusual icon that is painted on both sides.
Another medieval building with five domes is the Church of Agioi Barnabas and Hilarion in the village of Peristerona which dates back to the 16th century.
The second stamp in the first row is a 1735 drawing of the monastery of Agios Chrysostomos Koutsoventis (1090-1100 AD) by the Russian monk Vassili Barsky.The chapel housed frescoes of Byzantine art. The monastery is currently occupied by the Turkish forces.
The third stamp depicts the Coat-of Arms of the Lusignan Kings of Jerusalem, Cyprus and Armenia. King Peter I of Cyprus 1358-1369 AD also held the title of King of Armenia 1368-1369 AD. The Lusignans reigned from 1192 to 1489 AD.
The fourth stamp depicts the Chronicle of Leontios Machairas written between 1426 and 1432, concerning the “Sweet Land of Cyprus”.
The first stamp in the second row shows Caterina Cornaro, the last Queen of Cyprus ceding the island to the Venetians in 1489. Her husband Lusignan King James II had died in 1473.
The second stamp depicts the Venetian fortifications of the walled city of Nicosia. They were constructed between 1567 and 1570 but had not been completed when the Turkish forces under the command of Lala Mustapha Pasha had besieged the city.
The third stamp depicts the siege of Lefkosia in 1570 when after 45 days the walls were breached by the Ottoman army.
The fourth stamp depicts the surviving part of the Larnaka Aqueduct built in 1746 by Pasha Abu Bakr, Ottoman governor of Cyprus. It had cost him personally more than 50,000 piastres.

An account of the resource
Τhe wild red jungle fowl is the ancestor of today’s chickens, which like all birds are smart and have communication skills. The term “pecking order” was coined by the Norwegian biologist Thorlief Schjelderup-Ebbe after observing that chickens enforced their leadership by delivering a sharp peck on the back of underlings to remind them of their place in the hierarchy. A dominant rooster would crow to emphasize that he is master of his territory and would place himself at risk in order to warn his mate or offspring of looming danger.
In years gone bye many families raised chickens in their backyards, a custom that has vanished from many parts of the western world. With the increased demand for chicken meat and eggs, chicken farms have been established in many countries but the overcrowding living conditions for these factory farmed birds are awful thus leading to infections and the slaughter of thousands of them that never reach our dining tables.
In setting up such farms it is society’s moral obligation to ensure that living conditions for these birds are congenial by avoiding overcrowding in an otherwise healthy environment.

Description
An account of the resource
Αt the instigation of UNESCO and the “International Union of Geological Sciences”, the United Nations General Assembly proclaimed 2008 as the “International Year of Planet Earth” and the three years 2007-2009 to be a period of international actions.
Earth and the planets circling our sun were formed some 4.6 billion years ago when gas and dust collapsed. Earth is situated in the Milky Way galaxy which until the first two decades of the 20th century was thought to be the entire universe.
The expanse of the Milky Way stretches some 50,000 light years and light travels at 186,000 miles per second. Only 400 million years ago did Earth’s surface evolve to a strikingly modern appearance where green forests were populated by casts of insects and other creatures.
The search for earth-like planets has intensified in the past thirty years because we long to know if we are or are not alone in this vast timeless cosmos. So far more than 1700 planets have been identified orbiting other stars. The exoplanet Gliese 581g discovered in autumn 2010 is neither hot nor cold, thus challenging scientists and theorists to think about extraterrestrial life.
In the 3rd century BC Eratosthenes, the father of geography, calculated the girth of the earth which was correct to within 50 miles.
The earth takes 365 days 5 hours 48 minutes and 45.96768 seconds to circle around the sun.

An account of the resource
Βeyond the Milky Way astronomers have located many galaxies and one of these is the Andromeda galaxy which together with our own is located in a space cluster that includes the large Megellanic cloud and the small Megellanic cloud. This cluster extends to a distance of 2,000,000 light years. The distance covered by one light year is close to six trillion miles. The oldest ever identified galaxy is thought to be 13.6 billion light years from earth. Such distances are so astronomical that they are impossible to comprehend.
When primitive man observed the heavens he could never have imagined the vastness of the universe with its billions of stars and galaxies. In 1983
the known universe extended to 20,000,000,000 light years. Caleb Scharf writing in the Scientific American of August 2014 tells us that or galaxy
is but one of an estimated hundred billion such structures in the observable universe- a volume that now stretches in all directions from us for more than 270,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 miles.
Today astronomers speak of multiple universes while others contemplate landing human beings on Mars. Mankind is reaching out for the heavens and is now seeking out the first moments of cosmic creation.
Robert Browning wrote: “Ah, but a man’s reach should exceed his grasp, or what’s a heaven for ?”.

Description
An account of the resource
Louis Braille was born in Coupvray, France in 1809. He was blind from the age of three but this did not deter him from joining the Institution of the Young Blind in Paris when he was ten years old. He studied organ playing and became professor of the Institute in 1826.
Aware of the difficulties that blind people encountered, he devised in1829 a system of raised-point writing that enabled these people to both read and write.
As an educationalist and inventor he is the greatest benefactor of blind people. He died in 1852.

Description
An account of the resource
Ιn November 1909 the first co-operative society was formed in the now Turkish occupied village of Lefkonico. Gradually new institutions came into being both in the countryside, towns and cities. Their original aim was the protection of family income and the fight against usury.
The Turkish invasion of 1974 had devastating consequences which led to 225 co-operative institutions being displaced or inactivated as well as the loss of all their properties.
Since then the primary responsibility has been the smooth and effective operation of the societies and the development,
improvement, expansion and upgrading of services in the sectors of: Credit & Savings, Consumer needs, Trade in agricultural products, Manufacturing, Insurance and others. The most developed sector of the co-operative movement is that of Credit and Savings. In 2003 this sector had deposits of Cyprus Pounds amounting to 4 billion and loans of 3 billion.

Description
An account of the resource
In finalizing the Economic and Monetary Union, the European Union introduced on 1st January 1999 the Euro as a new virtual currency. On 1st January 2002 the Euro coins and banknotes were put into circulation and by 2014 eighteen countries from the European Union had adopted the Euro as their national currency.
The Euro stands alongside the U.S. Dollar and the Pound Sterling as a world reserve currency. The Persian King Darius I (521-486 BC) had organized the first world currency, called “Daric”.
Throughout history coin and banknote portraitures have been used to promote and perpetuate the memory of personalities, political events or moral virtues, or simply express an imperial authority such as in the Cyprus coins and banknotes that depict Queen Victoria or her successors.
The Roman Emperor Augustus called himself “Son of God” and this inscription appeared on his coinage. In 43 AD Emperor Claudius had a silver coin minted at Caesarea in modern Turkey to celebrate his conquest of Britain. In 1999 China issued a 50 yuan banknote bearing the image of Chairman Mao.
