An diesem Tag im Jahr 1192 verübten die Tempelritter ein schreckliches Massaker an der Bevölkerung von Nikosia.

Am Ostersonntag 1192 (5. April) erhob sich das Volk von Nikosia gegen die Tempelritter. Der Tempelritter, angeführt von Arnaut de Bouchart, überraschte die Menge nach einem nächtlichen Gebet, als er aus der Burg kam.

Es kam zu einem schrecklichen Massaker an der Bevölkerung von Nikosia, deren „Blut in den Pedieos-Fluss floss“, wie Florios Boustronios schreibt.

    The Kitos war in 120 CE was worse. As many as 240,000 Christian and Pagan Cypriots were killed in a religious slaughter led by Artemion.

    Wikipedia has for some reason recently edited out it’s previous account of this, but this remains… ‚In [Cyprus](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_Cyprus), Jewish rebels under Artemion’s leadership reportedly devastated the island and the city of [Salamis](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salamis,_Cyprus).[^([18])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kitos_War#cite_note-FOOTNOTEPucci_Ben_Zeev200696-18)[^([19])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kitos_War#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHorbury2014249-19)^(‚)

    From another source…

    “In [Cyprus](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyprus) a Jewish band under a leader named [Artemion](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Artemion&action=edit&redlink=1) took control of the island, killing tens of thousands of Cypriot Greek civilians. The Cypriot Jews participated in the great uprising against the Romans under [Trajan](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trajan) (117), and massacred 240,000 Greeks.[^([3])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kitos_War#cite_note-diosrome-3)[^([7])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kitos_War#cite_note-7) A Roman army was dispatched to the island, soon reconquering the capital. After the revolt had been fully defeated, laws were created forbidding any Jews to live on the island.“
