Monument dedicated to the Pontic Greek Genocide, Kastoria City, Greece The roots of the Greek presence in Pontus disappear in the mist of myth. The journey of Jason and the Argonauts to Colchis, the Amazons, the exile of Prometheus to Caucasus, the confrontation of Heracles with the Stymphalian Birds in ancient Aretiada, the wandering of Orestes in Tonya... The monument depicts the rich, glorious and dramatic history of the Pontian Greeks, beginning with the Argonauts and ending with the genocide and deportation of the Pontian Greeks in 1922-3.
