This Video is about raising awareness for two historical events: the Circassian Genocide that took place in the 19th century, and the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. The Video emphasizes the importance of remembering and honoring the victims of these events, and of showing solidarity with those who are still suffering as a result of violence and injustice. The video also highlights the similarities between the two events, reminding us that the fight for peace and justice is ongoing, and that we must remain vigilant to ensure that such atrocities never happen again. The overall goal of the video is to call for greater recognition of these events, and to inspire action in support of those who have been affected by violence and injustice.

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.

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!

Content note: There's mention of the Armenian and the Circassian genocide.

“The Circassian Cavaliers of the Caucasus”

A French film by Jean Paul Blondeau. Presented by Jean Bertho. subtitled in English by the Centre for Circassian Studies.

The mountain pastures where the famous Kabardian horses and intrepid Circassian horsemen share a free, yet very harsh, existence – the life of the “Cavaliers of the Caucasus”.

We expect to be endlessly surprised by the equine exploits of the cavaliers of the Caucasus…

For the peoples of the Caucasus, song and dance are a gift from Heaven…

Utterly exotic and stunning…

They live the life of herder cavaliers in all its aspects…

“The Kabardian Horse”

These horses are world-famous for their beauty, hardiness, and the surety of their feet on treacherous mountainous terrain.

They live in an extensive area of 20,000 hectares (200 km²) – a domain which sharply varies from 300 to almost six thousand metres in height. This is a vast dominion of lofty mountains, precipitous hills and gorges, and plateaus, all teaming with precipitous mountain streams and thunderous waterfalls...

Info: The land of Caucasus is located between the Pontic - Caspian steppe and Anatolia. Through the history it is inhabited by various nomadic populations such as Sarmatians, Scythians, Turks, Slavs, Mongolians and the native Caucasian populations such as Circassians, Georgians, Chechens, Lezgins and Armenians. Therefore, the culture of Caucasus has been affected by both nomadic and agricultural civilizations. There are historical findings that the various dances with blades were performed by Scythians since B.C.E. 2000s and later the Scythian's culture was combined with Turkic - Hunnic - Ugric cultures. After the collapse of the Mongolian Empire, the nomadic Turkic Kazakhs and Slavic Ukrainian populations have been combined. The new integrated population has been called as the Cossacks (meaning Kazakh in Slavic languages).

The blade dances of this video are some examples of Flankirovka, Khorumi and Perkhuli. Flankirovka is an art of spinning sabers (mostly Shashka) while dancing, originating from Caucasus and today performed by mostly Cossacks. Shashka is a Circassian sword and means "long knife" in Adyghe language. The music of the video is called Sinane Daxe, meaning "my mother" in Adyghe language. The performers in the video are Georgian, Ukrainian, Russian, Circassian, Tatar, Italian and French.
