The purpose of the photographic – historical album is to highlight the history of Kalamaria, not as part of the wider area of Thessaloniki but mainly as an area with its own identity.
The form and content, seek to present the history of the city not so much from analytical texts, but from the combination of various historical sources. From documents, photographs and publications of the press of that time, as well as from oral testimonies. Thus, Kalamaria “speaks for herself”.
Through the oral testimonies and personal language of the old Kalamariotes, it is more clear how the refugees saw the new place and how they lived their experiences. On the other hand, the photos give the image of space and people, the documents show the official side of events, while the guy adds a “third eye” to all of them.

The publication concerns the history of Kalamaria from 1940 to 1967. During this period, the new political identity of the residents of Kalamaria was formed and developed. The establishment of an independent Municipality was a decisive event. Survival needs did not stop the residents of Kalamaria from actively participating in all areas of everyday life and from giving their own stigma in the field of work, education, collective organization, entertainment, culture and religious life. Kalamaria gradually ceased to be an isolated settlement of pre-war Thessaloniki and developed into an area where basic infrastructure was being modernized. In the 1950s, the coastal zone was upgraded and since 1960 the population composition of Kalamaria was enriched and new settlements were created.

Thessaloniki in the 19th and early 20th centuries was the city of the Ottoman Empire, Selanik for the Gate, but also the “Jerusalem of the Balkans” for the Jews of Europe. At the same time, together with its Macedonian hinterland, it constituted the “apple of contention” of Balkan nationalisms, which with the Balkan Wars attempted to resolve the outstanding issues of the Aimos Peninsula. Since 1912 the population ratio tends to be reversed, as the former multinational city of a declining empire changes into an urban environment of a nation state. The fire of 1917 adds to the gradual population change, with the forced changes that occur in the architectural landscape, which is cut off from traditional icons and the past of the 19th century. However, the above changes, however subversive they may have been in relation to the Ottoman past, would not be able to overturn the population map of the city in such a short period of time since its liberation.
