Maronite women in Kormakitis (Kormajitis), Cyprus.

"For centuries, this small community of Maronites have retained a distinct identity rooted in their Catholic faith.

Ancestors of Christians who settled in Cyprus after fleeing what is now Lebanon and Syria in waves from the 8th century onwards, many were forced to move again when Cyprus was divided almost half a century ago.

The hamlet, Kormakitis, is the largest of four communities dispersed after a Turkish invasion, triggered by a brief Athens-inspired coup, divided Cyprus in 1974 among its mainly Orthodox Greek Cypriots and its Sunni Muslim Turkish Cypriots.

Less than 200 of the hamlet’s 2,000 strong community remained after the split, although a Turkish Cypriot relaxation on crossings in 2003, and permission in 2010 for Maronites to resettle there, has now boosted the population to about 250.

Families from the other three villages form part of a small, displaced Maronite minority in the internationally recognized Republic of Cyprus.

Cypriot Maronite Arabic, also known as “Sanna,” is unique to Kormakitis and the forced separation of the community, along with assimilation and a focus by Cypriot authorities in the 1960s on teaching Maronites Greek, has eroded its use."
