Wow and thank you! You have bought back so many memories for me! The filming is beautiful and Spyros made me cry with his passion and knowledge of this place where I once lived for a very short time.
06:42 - It was Venice and the Venicians and not the Italians who built the palace of the Grand Masters (Knights of Rhodes - Rodos). - Italy was not a country when the palace was built ! - In fact the italian peninsula was partly occupied by the King of Spain and partly by the Holly Roman Empire (Vatican Today !) NOT the Roman Empire of 2000 years ago ! - History has escaped the attention of the proffeor of classical studies
It was actually rebuilt by the Italians under the order of Mussolini which is what Spyros is referring to. The palace had been almost completely destroyed in the 1800s under Ottoman occupation. Spyros is an expert on the history of Rhodes, maybe the most knowledgeable living today….
