Keros moved to America in 1903, and unable to find work, started shining shoes and selling hot dogs from a street cart on the corner of Michigan Avenue and Lafayette.
|
|
In 1917, four years after Ford installed the assembly line that revolutionized cars and American industry, Keros transformed his cart into a brick-and-mortar establishment called American Coney Island.

Head from the figure of a woman, 2700 BC–2300 BC, Keros cultureThe "Keros Hoard" is a very large deposit of Cycladic figurines that was found on the island of Keros. In 2006-2008, the Cambridge Keros Project, co-directed by Colin Renfrew with others, conducted excavations at Kavos on the west coast of the island. This general area is believed to be the source of the so-called "Keros Hoard" of fragmentary Cycladic figurines. The material excavated in 2006-2008 includes Cycladic figurines, vessels and other objects made of marble, all broken prior to deposition and most likely broken elsewhere and brought to Kavos for deposition.

In Renfrew's system, Kastri culture follows the Keros-Syros culture. However, some archaeologists believe that the Keros-Syros and Kastri cultures belong to the same phase. Others describe this period as the Early Cycladic III (ECIII).

Keros- Syros culture is named after the two islands in the Cyclades—Keros and Syros. This culture flourished during the Early Cycladic II period (ca 2700-2300 BC). Some of the best preserved sites of this culture are at Kea and Ios, located not far from Keros. Some of the important artifacts of this culture are the so-called frying pans – shallow circular vessels or bowls with a decorated base.

Keros (; anciently, Keria or Kereia () is an uninhabited Greek island in the Cyclades about southeast of Naxos. Administratively it is part of the community of Koufonisia. It has an area of and its highest point is . It was an important site to the Cycladic civilization that flourished around 2500 BC. It is now forbidden to land in Keros.
|
|
Keros is especially noted for the flat- faced Cycladic marble statues which later inspired the work of Pablo Picasso and Henry Moore.
|
|
The gulf is east of the village and was an important port until the late Middle Ages. The name "Keros" meaning "horn" refers to its shape.
|
|
The islands flourished during the early Bronze Age, when the Cycladic culture appeared. The island of Keros was one of the major sites of Cycladic culture and has given its name to Early Cycladic II period of Cycladic culture, known as Keros-Syros culture. The islands continued to be populated thereafter. On the islands, mainly Schoinoussa and Irakleia there are ruins from classical antiquity and the Roman period.

In 2012, the activities at this site were dated 2750 to 2300 BC, which precedes any identified worship of gods in the Aegean. Colin Renfrew, Michael Boyd and Christopher Bronk Ramsey, The oldest maritime sanctuary? Dating the sanctuary at Keros and the Cycladic Early Bronze Age. Antiquity, Vol 86:331, 2012 pp 144-160 In 2018, excavations revealed the remains of massive terraced walls and giant gleaming structures on a tiny islet that was once attached to Keros.

Daskalio () is a tiny uninhabited Greek islet in the Cyclades just off the west coast of the larger island Keros and formerly a promontory thereof. Its diameter is approximately 150 metres. Excavation by the Cambridge Keros Project, a joint endeavour of the University of Cambridge, the Ephorate of Antiquities of Cyclades and the Cyprus Institute, in 2008 revealed a large Bronze Age settlement and ten years later researches from the university found evidence of advanced metalworking workshops there, dating from 2500 BC.

Early Cycladic II, Chalandriani, Syros (Keros- Syros culture, 2800-2300 BC) Frying pans is the descriptive name for Early Cycladic II artifacts from the Aegean Islands, flat skillets with a "handle", usually made from earthenware but sometimes stone (Frying pan (Karlsruhe 75/11) is an example). They are found especially during the Cycladic Grotta- Pelos and Keros-Syros cultures.

Close to Schoinoussa, Koufonisi, Donoussa, and Keros, together they form the Lesser Cyclades. The port is called Agios Georgios, while the "capital"/chora on the top of the island is called Panagia (Madonna). The biggest caves in the Cyclades are located on Irakleia. Irakleia can be reached by ferries from Athens, Naxos and Paros.

In the Keros-Syros phase of the Cycladic civilization, to which this piece is attributed, ceramic frying pans are very common. In addition a very few are known which are made out of marble. But the only other example made out of stone is an undecorated example first published by Nikolaos M. Kontoleon in 1972.Pat Getz-Preziosi, Frühkykladische Steingefäße.

Encantadia is an enchanted place in a different realm. All of the characters existing in this world are called Encantados. It was discovered and created thousand years ago by five supernatural beings, Haliya, Arde, Emre, Keros and Ether who were referred to as bathala (Gods) on the present times. The world they created was settled upon by low-class working individuals called "barbaro".

Kato Koufonisi is located next to Pano Koufonisi, Shoinousa and Keros. It has an area of and it is almost uninhabited, as there are only a few rural houses exist. The most distinctive sight of the island is the small church of Panagia that is built on a jetty, on top of ancient ruins. Only fish and tourist boats anchor in its small port.

Don Quixote Pond () is a pond located northeast of Dais Col in North Fork, Wright Valley, Victoria Land. A whimsical name, after Don Quixote, applied in juxtaposition to Don Juan Pond. The name appears in various reports on the locality published in the 1970s, including those by Keros Cartwright and Henry Harris of the Illinois State Geological Survey, who studied the hydrogeology of this area in three field seasons, 1973–76.

The island's museum, which is going to be housed in the old school's building, will be open soon. Its exhibits will be findings that date from the prehistoric period until now. Keros is an archaeological site, a sample of the Cycladic civilization and culture. Eminent statuettes, symbols of the Cycladic civilization, the Piper and the Harpist, which are now exposed at the Archaeological Museum of Athens were discovered on the island.

The Leo's Coney Island chain was created by Greek brothers Peter and Leo Stassinopoulos. The brothers are nephews to Bill and Gust Keros who founded American and Lafayette Coney Islands. Peter and Leo worked at local Coney Island restaurants until they opened their own Coney Island in 1972 called the Southfield Souvlaki Coney Island in Southfield, Michigan. One location opened in 1978 in Michigan and another in 1982 in Farmington Hills.

204 After the brewing process and the chicha was ready for consumption, it would consumed in vessels that made of varying materials such silver and gold. However, perhaps the most interesting were the ones made of wood known as keros, which often have elaborate designs and bold colors. Quinoa, a staple plant of the Incas, was used in various ways. The leaves were often used for stews and soups.

Barniz de Pasto (es) is a lacquer-like varnish technique originating in the Pre-Columbian era that is a specialty of Pasto, Colombia. It is made by chewing the resin of the Andean mopa-mopa shrub (Elaeagia pastoensis) into thin layers, and then painting it and applying it to a wood, metal, clay or glass surface using heated stones. Historically, the technique was applied to wooden keros, drinking vessels.

Recent work on ancient DNA has indicated a link between the populations featured in Gimbutas's hypothesis – without, however, providing a direction of spread. From 1987 to 1991 he co-directed excavations at Markiani on Amorgos and at Dhaskalio Kavos, Keros, Greece. Renfrew served as Master of Jesus College, Cambridge from 1986 until 1997. In 2004 he retired from the Disney Professorship and is now a Senior Fellow at the McDonald Institute.

A kerosene bottle, containing blue-dyed kerosene Kerosene, also known as paraffin, lamp oil, and coal oil (an obsolete term), is a combustible hydrocarbon liquid which is derived from petroleum. It is widely used as a fuel in aviation as well as households. Its name derives from (keros) meaning "wax", and was registered as a trademark by Canadian geologist and inventor Abraham Gesner in 1854 before evolving into a genericized trademark. It is sometimes spelled kerosine in scientific and industrial usage.

Emre stated that it has the power to balance nature. The first five gems are to create and maintain nature, whereas this the gem is for destruction (just like the destruction deity, Keros). Its powers is to permanently destroy, disintegrate and decompose all the other gems' magic to ensure that nature will be kept in balance and the cycle of the universe will continue flawlessly. The gem is the only gem powerful enough to undo all the magic of the Mother Gem's fragments.

The Spool-shaped pxis (NAMA 5225) is a ceramic vessel from the Bronze Age Cycladic civilisation. The "dark on light" painted pyxis was found in grave 271 of the necropolis at Chalandriani on the Cycladic island of Syros and dates to the early Cycladic period (EC II, Keros-Syros culture). It was discovered in 1889/90 during excavations led by Christos Tsountas and as first published by Tsountas in 1899. It is displayed in the National Archaeological Museum, Athens with the inventory number 5225.

Eucalyptus dolichocera was first formally described by the botanists Lawrence Alexander Sidney Johnson and Ken Hill in 1999 in the journal Telopea. The type specimen was collected by Ian Brooker and Donald Blaxell in 1975 about north east of Kalbarri on the North West Coastal Highway. The specific epithet (dolichocera) is derived from the Ancient Greek words dolichos meaning "long" and keros meaning "horn" referring to the long narrow operculum. This species belongs to the Eucalyptus subgenus Symphyomyrtus in the section Bisectae and the subsection Destitutae.

The structures were built using 1,000 tons of stone, turning the headland, which measures just across, into a single, giant 'pyramid'. Beneath the pyramid, researchers found evidence of a complex drainage tunnels and traces of advanced metalworking. The researchers say the remains make the island one of the most impressive archaeological sites of the Aegean Sea during the Early Bronze Age. The excavations show that the headland of Dhaskalio, which was once attached to Keros but is now a tiny islet because of sea level rise, was almost entirely covered by remarkable monuments.

There are many places of interest that someone should visit during his stay on Koufonisia, such as the central and the back port, the piscatorial shelter, the carnagio, the windmills and the churches of Agios Georgios, Agios Nikolaos and Profitis Ilias. The fishermen in their small boats (caiques) is a characteristic picture of the island. The full-moon nights and Keros' view in the moonlight are a unique experience for the visitors. According to the residents of Koufonisi, the contour of the deserted island in the night resembles a female, prostrated Cycladic statuette.

Cycladic statues of a double flute player (foreground) and a harpist (background) On the island of Keros (Κέρος), two marble statues from the late Neolithic culture called Early Cycladic culture (2900–2000 BCE) were discovered together in a single grave in the 19th century. They depict a standing double flute player and a sitting musician playing a triangular-shaped lyre or harp. The harpist is approximately high and dates to around 2700–2500 BCE. He expresses concentration and intense feelings and tilts his head up to the light.

It is probable that ulluco was brought into cultivation more than 4000 years ago. Biological material from several coastal Peruvian archaeological sites have been found to contain starch grains and xylem of the ulluco plant, suggesting domestication occurred between the central Andes of Peru and Bolivia. Illustrations and representations of ulluco on wooden vessels (keros), ceramic urns and sculptures have been used to date the presence and importance of these tubers back to 2250 BC.Sperling, C.R. and King, S.R. (1990). ‘Andean tuber crops: Worldwide potential’ in Janick, J. and Simon, J.E. (ed.) Advances in new crops.

Skarkos was systematically excavated during the years 1984-1997. The excavations have been carried out in the north and east sides of the hill. They have brought to light an important early Cycladic settlement (mid-3rd millennium BC) in an exceptionally good state of preservation (two-storey buildings, four-metre-high walls), and an overlying late middle/early late Bronze Age cemetery (mid-2nd millennium BC). The settlement covers an area of 1.1 hectares and is the largest and best preserved site of the Keros-Syros culture, estimated to have been home to between 200 and 300 people.

In addition, several local restaurants throughout the Jackson area offer their own version of the Coney Island hot dog, or just "coney" as referred to by local residents. Two of the best-known Coney Island restaurants are the Lafayette Coney Island and the American Coney Island, which are located in adjacent buildings on Lafayette Boulevard in downtown Detroit. They have a common root, with the original restaurant having been established by Greek immigrant brothers Bill and Gus Keros in 1915. The brothers got into a business dispute soon thereafter, and in 1917 split their restaurant into the two establishments that exist today.

1991 Cerro Trapiche was another a Wari/Huaracane site in the middle valley near Tiwanaku settlements; it includes a walled hill peak with slingstone caches.Green and Goldstein 2010 After 1000, both Tiwanaku and Wari had abandoned their Moquegua settlements, and by 1100, the sister states had entirely collapsed. The Chiribaya culture persisted along the lower and middle sections of the Osmore River until about 1400 CE. There were considerable similarities between the Wari and Tiwanaku religious iconographies as found by archaeologists; this suggests intimate contact between the Wari and Tiwanaku. There was also Tiwanaku influence on hybrid Wari keros vessels.

" Steve Keros of Entertainment Weekly gave the album a B, saying "The Chili Peppers have taken a chill pill...ambiance is in abundance". He praised the "upbeat" and "Prince-inspired" "Go Robot", as well the "downright dreamy" "The Longest Wave". He concluded that "the band can't help but sound like themselves...it's the ultimate sign of their staying power". Alex Flood of New Musical Express gave the album 3 stars out of 5 in a somewhat mixed review, saying "The problems come when they slip into habit... Flea’s bass solos still sound like the theme tune from Seinfeld, and Anthony Kiedis often spouts nonsense.

Harp player from Keros, 2600 BC. National Archaeological Museum, Athens In 2007–2008, the same project identified and excavated a substantial Cycladic period settlement on the nearby island of Daskalio. A large area has been excavated, revealing a substantial building 16 metres long and 4 metres wide — the largest from this period in the Cyclades — within which was discovered the ‘Daskalio hoard’ comprising a chisel, an axe-adze and a shaft-hole axe of copper or bronze. In addition to excavation, survey of the islet showed that most of its surface — a total of 7000 square meters — was occupied during the Early Bronze Age, making this the largest site in the Cyclades. Specialist studies for the geomorphology, geology, petrology, ceramic petrology, metallurgy and environmental aspects (botanical and faunal remains, phytoliths) ensued.

Map of the Cyclades The Cyclades (Greek: Κυκλάδες Kykládes) are Greek islands located in the southern part of the Aegean Sea. The archipelago contains some 2,200 islands, islets and rocks; just 33 islands are inhabited. For the ancients, they formed a circle (κύκλος / kyklos in Greek) around the sacred island of Delos, hence the name of the archipelago. The best-known are, from north to south and from east to west: Andros, Tinos, Mykonos, Naxos, Amorgos, Syros, Paros and Antiparos, Ios, Santorini, Anafi, Kea, Kythnos, Serifos, Sifnos, Folegandros and Sikinos, Milos and Kimolos; to these can be added the little Cyclades: Irakleia, Schoinoussa, Koufonisi, Keros and Donoussa, as well as Makronisos between Kea and Attica, Gyaros, which lies before Andros, and Polyaigos to the east of Kimolos and Thirassia, before Santorini.

Prehistoric mirrors often have decorated backs, but are usually made of reflective materials rather than ceramic, although proponents of the mirror theory suggest that filled with water or oil, these objects could function as mirrors. A 2009 study concluded, via experimentation, that the frying pans work effectively as mirrors when filled water or olive oil. The use of olive oil was found to be particularly effective, especially if the oil is darkened with pigment. Olive oil is generally believed to have been too rare and expensive to be used for this purpose in the early Cycladic period, though recent discoveries on the island of Keros of a large pyramid, complex plumbing systems, and highly advanced metallurgy suggest that olive oil may not have been as rare as was once believed.

A 2009 study concluded, via experimentation, that the frying pans work effectively as mirrors when filled water or olive oil, particularly if either liquid was darkened with pigments. While the study found olive oil to be particularly effective it is believed to have been too rare and expensive for this kind of use in the early Cycladic period, though recent discoveries on the island of Keros of a large pyramid, complex plumbing, and highly advanced metallurgy suggest that olive oil may have not been seen as rare. Any civilization that can move large blocks of stone from 10 kilometers away was surely capable of providing olive oil for any such purpose. On account of several finds in the cemetery of Chalandriani on the island of Syros and small examples of clay and bone with paint residue, Nikolaos M. Kontoleon suggested that they could have been palettes for the creation of paints from crushed pigments.
