Kyra Vassiliki
Kyra Vassiliki ((ギリシア語:Κυρά Βασιλική) 1789 – 1834) was an influential Greek woman brought up in the seraglio of the Ottoman ruler Ali Pasha.
==Life==
Vassiliki Kontaxi was born in the Greek village of Plisivitsa in Thesprotia. At the age of twelve she sought an audience with the local Ottoman ruler, Ali Pasha, to intercede for her father's life.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Helley(?), H. Portrait of Kira Vassiliki. () )〕 Having granted her father pardon, Ali Pasha married Vassiliki in 1808 and she joined his harem.〔 Being allowed to practice her Christian faith, she interceded on behalf of Greeks.〔 In 1818 she became a member of the Greek patriotic organization Filiki Eteria. Vassiliki was directly recruited by one of the three founding members of the organization, Nikolaos Skoufas. During this period she undertook a number of charity initiatives. In 1819-1820 she financed a number of restoration works in Mount Athos.
In January 1822, during the last stage of the siege of Ioannina by the Ottoman Sultan's forces, Vassiliki together with Ali Pasha and his private guard escaped to the islet of Ioannina lake. Ali Pasha was executed there in January 22, by an Ottoman delegation having being declared an outlaw by the Sultan. Following Ali's death, Vassiliki was sent as a prisoner to the Ottoman capital, Constantinople. She was later pardoned and returned to Greece, which meanwhile gained its independence after the successful Greek War of Independence (1821–1830).〔 In 1830, the Greek state gave Vassiliki a medieval tower in Katochi, where she lived the rest of her life.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Koulia of Kyra Vassiliki )〕 She died of dysentery in 1834.
