Maratha, Cyprus

Maratha (Greek: Μαράθα, Turkish: Muratağa) is a small village located in the Famagusta District of Cyprus, 7 km south of Lefkoniko.

It is under the de facto control of Northern Cyprus.

[2] In 1974 a mass-grave containing the bodies of more than 80 murdered Turkish-Cypriots men, women and children was found here.

These were the people who were massacred by the EOKA-B in the Maratha, Santalaris and Aloda massacre during the Turkish invasion of Cyprus.
