Mesa Mani.
Kounos and Koita. Doesn't get more southern/Mesa Mani than that. My username is a title my family has had for many hundreds of years. Both of my families Tower-Homes can be viewed on Mani.org. They are both the biggest of the 2 villages.
Greek1234 you are correct, the Turks NEVER occupied Inner/Mesa Mani. They tried but failed and then asked only for tribute which was NEVER paid!HAHA My family was known for the pirating against the Turks and those who did business with Turks.
The Revolutionary flag of Mani was 'Victory or Death' while other Greeks had "Freedom or Death". That flag says it all!
