| Summary: | The Christian orthodox populations of the Back Sea area, or Pontos, were transfered in Greece according to the exchange agreement of the Lausanne Treaty (1923). Since this date, the Iost country (Patridha) became a sacred issue which works as a basic imaginary component of greco-pontic identity inside the remembrance process acting into the family and group history.After the Greek civil war, the pilgrimage travels became easier and more frequent for the Pontics of Greece. The paper deals with the consequences of the “Tour to Turkey” which evidently modified the link between the lost country of imaginary dwellings and the reality that can be looked at by everybody today. We underline the part that the Pontic speaking moslems play in the process of mental evolution. |
