The Circassian Beauties 19th century:

Imagine the 19th century, a time when the allure of the exotic beckoned from the heart of the Caucasus—the realm of the Circassian Beauties. Envision a group of women, their features strikingly European, discovered in the mysterious folds of the Circassian region. Their presence gives rise to whispers and tales, sparking fascination and wonder.

Were these women captives torn from their homelands, refugees seeking sanctuary, or symbols of a beauty shrouded in the mystique of the unknown? The Circassian Beauties become not just individuals but embodiments of an era where the enigmatic met the captivating, and their stories echo through the corridors of time, inviting us to peer into a bygone world where beauty was draped in the intrigue of the unexplained.

Kfar Kama was founded in 1876 by Circassians (Adyghe) who were defeated in the Russian-Caucasian war and expatriated from their native lands. People managed to preserve their roots and national identity. They communicate with each other in their native Adyghe language, prepare dishes of national cuisine and dance traditional Circassian dances in national costumes. There is still the rite of the abduction of the bride.
Circassians practice Islam (Sunni).
On weekends and holidays in the village, they organize festivals with dancing and treats, watching movies of the history of the Circassian people.
In the museum, you can see the history of Circassian life over the past 150 years. There are also things found at the excavation site.
We recommend visiting the shop of cheeses that are unusually tasty!

Кфар Кама была основана в 1876 году изгнанными со своих исконных земель черкесами (адыгэ), потерпевшими поражение в Русско-Кавказской войне. Жителям удалось сохранить свои корни и национальную самобытность. Они общаются между собой на родном адыгейском языке, готовят блюда национальной кухни и танцуют традиционные черкесские танцы в национальных костюмах. До сих пор существует обряд похищения невесты.
Черкесы исповедуют ислам (сунниты).
В выходные и праздники в деревне устраивают фестивали с танцами, угощением, просмотром фильмов по истории народа.
Открыт музей черкесского быта за последние 150 лет. Там же находятся найденные на месте раскопок вещи.
Рекомендуем посетить магазин сыров, которые необыкновенно вкусные!

Global Circassian Initiative For May 21
Recognize the Circassian Genocide

Call to ACTION!

Ask Russia where is Circassia

The Circassian Genocide has been hidden from the world. It is the first genocide of modern European history that ripped Circassians from the coasts of Circassia. For Russia to build their empire they have chosen to destroy the people of Circassia and keep their land. Millions of Circassians died at the hands of Imperialist Russia.

Now 147 years later Circassians are organizing a global initiative against the Sochi Olympic Games. Sochi was the capital of Circassia and the main port where the whole nation was annihilated and forced into exile. Krasnaya Polyana is where the Olympic main venues will be held and that is the site where Russia declared victory over Circassia 150 years earlier.

It's not just about memory it's also about the continual crimes against humanity conducted by Russia against the Circassian nation, environmental destruction of a UNESCO World Heritage site, the corruption where the Sochi Games will cost $50 billion dollars and be the most expensive in history and the annihilation of human rights in the region.

We call upon not just Circassians but to all those who feel passion for humanity.

We also ask all to call their local Russian Embassies/Consulates to ask where is Circassia.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.

Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

"The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing."

SUMMARY
=======
Circassian beauties is a phrase used to refer to an idealized image of the women of the Circassian people of the Northwestern Caucasus. A fairly extensive literary history suggests that Circassian women were thought to be unusually beautiful, spirited, and elegant, and as such were desirable as concubines.
This reputation dates back to the Late Middle Ages, when the Circassian coast was frequented by traders from Genoa, and the founder of the Medici dynasty, Cosimo de' Medici, had an illegitimate son from a Circassian slave. During the Ottoman Empire and Persian Safavid and Qajar dynasties, Circassian women living as slaves in the Sultan's Imperial Harem and Shah's harems started to build their reputation as extremely beautiful and genteel, which then became a common trope in Western Orientalism.As a result of this reputation, in Europe and America Circassians were often characterised as ideals of feminine beauty in poetry and art. Cosmetic products were advertised, from the 18th century on, using the word "Circassian" in the title, or claiming that the product was based on substances used by the women of Circassia.
In consequence, most wives of several Ottoman Sultans were ethnic Circassians converted to Islam, e.g. Valide Sultans (Empress mothers), including Perestü Valide Sultan, Pertevniyal Valide Sultan, Şevkefza Valide Sultan, Tirimüjgan Valide Sultan, Nükhetseza Başhanımefendi, other important Hatuns (Ladies) and Sultans like Şemsiruhsar Hatun and Saçbağlı Sultan, Haseki sultans (chief consorts) such as Mahidevran Haseki Sultan, Hümaşah Haseki Sultan, Hatice Muazzez Haseki Sultan, and Ayşe Haseki Sultan besides numerous Başkadınefendis (most senior consorts), including Bedrifelek I, Bidar II, Kamures I, and Servetseza I as well as Kadınefendis (senior consorts) such as Bezmara VI, Düzdidil III, Hayranıdil II, Meyliservet IV, Mihrengiz II, Neşerek III, Nurefsun II, Reftaridil II, Şayan III, amongst many others, or İkbals (honoured lady consorts), most notable of them being Cevherriz II, Ceylanyar II, Dilfirib I, Nalanıdil III, and Nergis IV in addition to Gözdes (favourite lady consorts), including Dürdane I, Hüsnicenan III, Safderun IV, amongst others. The "golden age" of the Circassian beauty may be considered to be between the 1770s, when the Russian Empire seized the Crimean Khanate and cut off their slave trade in Eastern European women, which increased the demand for Circassian women in Near Eastern harems; and the 1860s, when the Russians destroyed Circassia itself.
In the 1860s the showman P. T. Barnum exhibited women who he claimed were Circassian beauties. They wore a distinctive curly, big hair style, which had no precedent in earlier portrayals of Circassians, but which was soon copied by other female performers in the United States, who became known as "moss-haired girls". This hair style was a sort of a exhibit's trademark and was achieved by washing the hair of women in beer, drying it and then teasing it. It is not clear why Barnum chose this hairstyle. It may have been a reference to the Circassian fur hat, rather than the hair.
There were also several classical Turkish music pieces and poems that praise the beauty of the "Lepiska Saçlı Çerkes" (Straight, flaxen-haired Circassian; "lepiska" refers to long blonde hair which is soft and straight, as if flatironed).

It's time to finally look at some languages again and I have to say, this region has been the most challenging to prepare so far. There is such a wealth of languages in the Cacausus mountains, with some that we've talked about before, and some isolate and native to this region alone. Get comfy and let's slowly work our way through the map 💖 Before we start, though, thank you so much for all the well-wishes last week!
