@Ayran_Enjoyer 2. The eastern Empire outlasted the western, when Rome was invaded by Germanic tribes. Later, it shaped all of European & western culture, when the Byzantines fled the ottoman invasion. This is why western culture is founded upon the Greek. It was Greeks who shaped it.

The greatest irony in modern Greek nationalism is that its supporters keep trying to claim an empire that spent 1,000 years insisting it was not Greek. The so-called “Byzantine Empire” never called itself Byzantine. It called itself the Roman Empire. Its people called themselves Romans (Romaioi). Its emperors called themselves Roman Emperors. Its laws were Roman law. Its state was the direct continuation of Rome. Even the word “Hellene” was avoided for centuries because it was associated with paganism. Yes, the empire spoke Greek. It used Greek literature. It was culturally Hellenized. But speaking Greek did not make someone Greek any more than speaking English makes an Indian, Nigerian, or Australian English. If you walked into Constantinople in the year 1000 and called the emperor “Greek,” he would have corrected you immediately: “I am Roman.” The Byzantine Empire was not a Greek state that happened to inherit Rome. It was the Roman Empire that happened to speak Greek. Modern Greeks inherited part of its culture and language, but they did not create it, rule all of it, or define its identity. For a thousand years the empire itself settled the question. It called itself Rome.

@Ayran_Enjoyer 1. You uneducated fool. The Eastern Roman Empire was founded and run by ethnic Greeks. They called themselves Roman because they were part of the greater Roman empire, and this was a political strategy to signal status and power

@UcmaSerkan @EnsedeCiencia Its a real tragedy that the current day inhabitants of this land know nothing about its past. Or pretend not to know. They just say "shared culture" as a catch all to claim the credit. Either that, or they name all cultures other than Greek. I wonder why!

Este teatro romano se usaba para tragedias y gladiadores; hoy acoge fútbol con la misma pasión caótica de hace siglos.

@EvrenSAuthor This is historically and culturally inaccurate. U dont seem to have any understanding of cultural misappropriation. Hence why u refuse to listen to any advice or criticism. Keep being ignorant & arrogant. U r only exposing urself to those who have true cultural understandings.

Hellenistic is a time frame and an artistic-cultural period, not proof of modern national ownership. Antiphellos was in Lycia. Its Lycian name was Habesos or Habesa, and it belonged to the ancient Lycian world before later Hellenistic and Roman layers. A later Greek name does not erase the Anatolian layer beneath it. Ancient theatres in Türkiye are not dead museum objects. They are still used for concerts, performances, and public gatherings under cultural management, because they were built for collective audiences. Heritage should be protected, but being used according to its original purpose does not denigrate it.

@DailyTurkic This is an arabic dish with an arabic name. Lahma means meat in Arabic. So many words in the Turkish language are of Arabic origin. By the way, do you know what Erda means in Arabic😂?

@EvrenSAuthor Its a Hellenistic theatre with a Greek name. Everything about it is Greek. Unfortunately it's not only open for cultural &musical events which are appropriate, but also for watching sunsets &major sporting events. This denigrates it's value and poses risks of damage

@morena_mar2586 It's a Hellenistic theatre based on Greek culture. It's not part of turkish culture, which has one of the biggest genocidal heritages. We have every right to voice our opinions. You are culturally misappropriating the site. You have no cultural authority on this so u can shut up.

Los teatros romanos son lo primero. En segundo lugar, no vamos a pedir permiso a los griegos, con su pasado de esclavitud y colonialismo, para utilizar los que se encuentran en nuestros propios países; callaos si no son vuestros. .,

Watching the World Cup in ancient Greek theaters shows not culture, but disrespect. Civilized nations protect humanity’s heritage instead of turning sacred monuments into entertainment venues. True civilization honors history.

@EvrenSAuthor Who are you to say its been used as originally intended? Is this part of your culture? No! You are culturally misappropriating the site. You dont deserve to have this or any of the Ancient treasures. You are ignorant, arrogant and stubborn fools.

Ancient theatres in Türkiye are not treated as objects to be locked away and displayed like museum pieces. They are still used for concerts, performances, cultural events, and public gatherings, because this is exactly what they were built for. Their acoustic systems were designed for live audiences, voices, music, and collective experience. From concerts by world-renowned artists such as Fazıl Say to public screenings and cultural events, these ancient spaces are still alive. So when 3,000 fans watched the FIFA World Cup in a 2,000-year-old ancient theatre in Lycia, it was not a misuse of heritage. It was heritage being used according to its original purpose.

@YusufYILDIRIM44 @bleasedaii @alexandros85814 @CuriousVoyagerX No point arguing with uneducated fools. Trying to put your empire on the same calibre as the Ancienr Greek civilisation is a joke. What did you accomplish other than killings, robery and invasion? Nothing. Thats why you're trying to pass up this "shared heritage" non sense!

Turkish fans recently filled the 2,000 year old Antiphellos Ancient Theatre in Kaş, Antalya, to watch their national team’s World Cup match on a giant screen. Aerial footage showed thousands in red and white, waving flags inside the amphitheater. Built during the Hellenistic era (1st century BCE), this amphitheater is the only ancient theater in Anatolia designed to face the sea, giving beautiful views of the Mediterranean Sea and the Greek island of Meis.

To give credit, the Greeks are one of the few nations in the world when it comes to shitposting. There are thousands of Greeks who dedicated their lives to standing at attention at keyboard, waiting for the slightest stumble by Turkey on the international stage to start shitposts
Paul Antonopoulos@oulosP

The arrogance of Hakan Çalhanoğlu mirrors wider Turkish society - unfounded bravado and chauvinism detached from reality, which always ends up in humiliating failure. Turks think that by the natural order they would beat Australia, but still haven't figured out that just because you're bigger or the favorites doesn't mean victory is inevitable. This constant arrogance is exactly why their potential for economic success has been flushed down the toilet, and now Turks need to shop in Greece to afford meat and cheese. They were arrogant in their foreign policy, and now not even the Central Asian Turkic countries want to entertain their delusions that Turkish-occupied northern Cyprus is an independent state. And now, even in the sporting arena, a country of nearly 90 million has not achieved a single notable sporting success and has even been humiliated by Australia, a country of 28 million, where football is the fourth sport behind Australian Rules Football, Rugby League, and Cricket.

@FreshSummerWind The Lycians built that theater; the Lycians were also an indigenous people of Anatolia with no connection to the Greeks. Stop stealing the history of other peoples.
