It was a Tuesday, a day still seen as cursed by Greeks. When I was little we were told the story of how our ancestors died on the walls of The City with the God Ordained Emperor, Constantine XI Paleologos and of the final Liturgy at Agia Sophia when the women and children were raped by the Mohammedan Turks and dragged off into slavery and the old people put to the sword. It is a horror we will never forget and which we have passed on to our children.
