KOMBOLOI AND BEGLERI

Many of you will already be familiar with komboloi (κομπολόι) and in Greece will have seen it flowing, grain after grain, between the fingers of men of all ages in cafés and on the streets. For those who are wondering what we are talking about, the komboloi is a string closed in a circle on which pearls of different materials are strung. It is a pastime, if necessary a rosary, a precursor of modern anti-stress but also and above all a powerful cultural symbol which was and still remains a predominantly male accessory.

KOMBOLOI E BEGLERI

Molti di voi conosceranno già il komboloi (κομπολόι) e in Grecia lo avranno visto scorrere, grano dopo grano, tra le dita di uomini di ogni età nelle caffetterie e sulle strade. Per chi invece si stesse chiedendo di cosa parliamo, il komboloi è una stringa chiusa a cerchio su cui sono infilate perle di diversi materiali. È un passatempo, all'occorrenza un rosario, un precursore dei moderni antistress ma anche e soprattutto un potente simbolo culturale che era e rimane tutt’oggi un accessorio prevalentemente maschile.
