Help Translate Karolides' Book

Paul Carolides’ (Παύλος Καρολίδης) book, “The Origin of the Orthodox Christians of Syria and Palestina” (ΠΕΡΙ ΤΗΣ ΕΘΝΙΚΗΣ ΚΑΤΑΓΩΓΗΣ ΤΩΝ ΟΡΘΟΔΟΞΩΝ ΧΡΙΣΤΙΑΝΩΝ ΣΥΡΙΑΣ ΚΑΙ ΠΑΛΑΙΣΤΙΝΗΣ), was published in Katharevousa Greek in 1909. It is the only known academically written book on the ethnic origins of the indigenous Levantine Rûm-Orthodox population. Since it was published in 1909, it is also the least biased look at the ethnic origins of the Levantine Rûm, as it was written before the rise of Arabism.

It is our hope to translate this forgotten work from Katharevousa Greek into English, and release it via an activist network called Operation Antioch, for free. Please help us unlock this priceless piece of historical truth.

This fundraiser is a project of Operation Antioch, which is a grassroots ethno-cultural movement founded by Levantine Rûm attempting to reestablish our truth pre-Arabist ethnic origins. To learn more about OA please visit us at Facebook.com/OperationAntioch

Since OA is not a registered non-profit, but a loose network of independent activists fighting for the Antiochene Cause. We have reached out to a trusted Greek-American non-profit to assist us in our campaign.
