Les Arabes et les Turcs philhellènes pendant l’insurrection pour l’Indépendance de la Grèce

Abstract

During the wars of the Greeks for their indépendance, in 1821, many
volunteers came from the Balkans to help them in their uprising.
In the General State Archives, in Athens there exists a number of documents
concerning besides the Balkan people, also Arabs and Turks who joined
the Greek armies fighting against the Turks. In these documents are expressed
the feelings of the Turk volunteers for their native country, that in Greece,
and their desire to collaborate with the Greeks.
