l. 900, coo to 100000 Armenians by mas
sacre and starvation, drove the re-

across to Greece, in Compa risOn to the
people left behind, still their plight
has been desperate indeed.
The bulk of those refugees who
managed to escape the horrors of
deportation, the desert, the wild
Kurds, or the Turkish harem, found
their way to Erivan and other cities
in the Caucasus.
