Title A name given to the resource WWII Monuments in Epirus, Greece Description An account of the resource These images and text document the many and varied World War II monuments scattered across the rugged landscape of Epirus, in northwestern Greece. They also provide evidence for the strong culture of ongoing World War II commemoration in the region. What the monuments commemorate ranges from the Hellenic Army's victory over Mussolini's forces in 1940 through the role of Greek women in the war, to the victims of Nazi atrocities, and even a Communist dominated resistance organization. The collection is part of a larger project that includes scholarship on some of the memorials, and interactive mapping of all of them which will enable users to geographically locate each one, learn its historical context, and contribute to discussion about it. <a href="https://digitalexhibits.hollins.edu/neatline/show/warmonumentsgreece">View the interactive map</a> Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource Images provided for non-commercial research and reference use only.

Type The nature or genre of the resource war memorials; monumental sculpture; ossuaries (buildings) Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context epirus_soldier_of_1940 Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource October 28, 1940 (Date of Event) ; September 1966 (Date of Construction) Title A name given to the resource Soldier of 1940 Description An account of the resource The warrior monument is erected on a hill outside the village of Kalpaki at the intersection of the major roughly N-S route from Ioaninna to Kozani (and the Albanian border just beyond) and a smaller road that is the northern route into the tortuous mountain byways that partially ring the Vikos gorge and lead to the northern Zagorian villages of Aristi, the Papingos and the eponymous Vikos. The monument is accessible both by car on a macadam road, and on a well-maintained stone walkway that processes up from the back streets of the village. A massive (roughly 5.5 meters) bronze statue of a helmeted, caped, and armed man stands on a high (~ 1.5 meters), irregularly shaped pedestal that also serves as an ossuary. The statue and base are situated in the middle of a large plaza with a decorative pavement composed of slate stones bordered by a marble edging that forms both regularly geometric panels and shard-like projections through the design. The composition accommodates distant viewing and a close-up experience with room for a large crowd. The bronze statue faces NW, looking out towards the Albanian border, and faces a hillside in the distance with the word OXI marked out in white stones. His military accoutrement includes boots, rifle with bayonet, and helmet. His bulk is accentuated by the large sweeping poncho that encloses him and obscures the outline of the human body. His attire is easily identified as the characteristic thick hide and wool shepherd’s cloak, kopanos in Greek or sheath.
