Massive labor emigration wave

Between 1955 and 1973, over 600,000 Greeks migrated to Germany alone, as part of a massive wave of post-war labor emigration.

Music

Popular traditional dances and accompanying instruments

The Kalamatianos, often associated with the city of Kalamata, was one of the most popular dances, along with the Syrtos and Tsamiko. While domestic dancing sometimes occurred without instruments, public festivals relied on ensembles that featured percussion like the defi tambourine and the davouli drum.

Daily life

In many rural areas, homes lacked running water, requiring families to collect it from community taps or carry it from wells. Households often relied on oil lamps for light, as electricity was unavailable for two-thirds of the Greek population in the early 1950s.
