Tinos
''This article is about the Greek island; for the font family, see Croscore fonts.
Tinos ((ギリシア語:Τήνος) (:ˈtinos)) is a Greek island situated in the Aegean Sea. It is located in the Cyclades archipelago. In antiquity, Tinos was also known as Ophiussa (from ''ophis'', Greek for snake) and Hydroessa (from ''hydor'', Greek for water). The closest islands are Andros, Delos, and Mykonos. It has a land area of approximately and a 2011 census population of 8,636 inhabitants.
Tinos is famous amongst Greeks for the Church of Panagia Evangelistria, its 80 or so windmills, about 1000 artistic dovecotes, 50 active villages and its Venetian fortifications at the mountain, Exomvourgo. On Tinos, both Greek Orthodox and Roman Catholic populations co-exist, and the island is also well known for its famous sculptors and painters, such as Nikolaos Gysis, Yannoulis Chalepas and Nikiforos Lytras.
The island is located near the geographical center of the Cyclades island complex, and because of the Panagia Evangelistria church, with its reputedly miraculous icon of Virgin Mary that it holds, Tinos is also the center of a yearly pilgrimage that takes place on the date of the Dormition of the Virgin Mary (15 August, "''Dekapentavgoustos''" in Greek). This is perhaps the most notable and still active yearly pilgrimage in the region of the eastern Mediterranean. Many pilgrims make their way the 800 metres from the ferry wharf to the church on their hands and knees as sign of devotion.
==History==

Following the capture of Constantinople by the Fourth Crusade, Tinos was one of several islands ruled by private Venetian citizens and belonged to Geremia Ghisi, whose heirs held it until 1390 when the last member of the family branch bequeathed both Tinos and Mykonos to Venice.〔William Miller, ''The Latin Orient'' (London: Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge, 1920), p. 39〕〔D. Jacoby, ''La féodalité en Grèce médiévale. Les « Assises de Romanie », sources, application et diffusion'' (1971), p. 237〕 It was ruled by Venice until 1715, when Tinos was captured by the Ottoman Empire (see Ottoman–Venetian War), and became known as İstendil. The Ottomans held Tinos until 1821 when the inhabitants joined in the Greek War of Independence.〔http://www.gefad.gazi.edu.tr/window/dosyapdf/2009/4/40.pdf〕
The tumult of the period gave raise to an increase in piracy in the region. In 1825 was lead vessel of a small squadron in anti-piracy operations in the Archipelago, at Alexandria, and around the coasts of Syria. On 27 July 1826 ''Cambrian''s boats captured a pirate bombard and burnt a mistico on Tinos. Five pirates were killed and several wounded.
The date of 15 August also commemorates the 1940 sinking in Tinos's harbour of the Greek cruiser ''Elli'', during peacetime, while she rode at anchor, by the Italian submarine ''Delfino''. The ''Elli'' was participating in the celebrations of the Feast of the Dormition. One of the three torpedoes fired hit the ''Elli'' under the one operating boiler and she caught fire and sank. Nine petty officers and sailors were killed and 24 were wounded. The same submarine attempted to torpedo the passenger ships M/V ''Elsi'' and M/V ''Hesperos'' anchored in the port. This attempt failed and the torpedoes only damaged only a section of the port's wharf.
