Athlitiki Enosis Konstantinoupoleos
Encyclopedia
The Athletic Union of Constantinople , more commonly referred to as AEK or in European competitions as AEK Athens, is a sports club
based in the city of Athens
, Greece
.
The club was founded on 13 April 1924 in Athens
by Greek refugees
from
Constantinople
(now Istanbul
) in the wake of the Greco-Turkish War
and subsequent population exchange
.
The large Greek population of Constantinople
, not unlike those of the other Ottoman urban
centres, continued its athletic traditions in the form of numerous athletic clubs. Clubs such
as Enosi Tataoulon from the Tatavla
district, Megas Alexandros of Vathyriakos,
and Hermes ( – Ermis) of Galata
existed to promote
Hellenic
athletic and cultural ideals; Hermes, one of the more popular clubs, was
formed in 1875 by the Greek community of Pera (Galata). Forced by the Kemalist regime to
change its name to Pera Club in 1921, many of its athletes fled during the population
exchanges at the end of the Greco-Turkish War
, and settled in
Athens and Thessaloniki
.
The founders of AEK established the club with the intention of providing athletic and cultural diversions for the thousands of predominantly Constantinopolitan and Anatolian refugees who had settled in the new suburbs of Athens (Nea Filadelfeia
, Nea Ionia
, Nea Chalkidona
, Nea Smyrni
, e.t.c.).
( – Dikefalos Aetos), which remained for the next half-century, on a golden yellow background. When AEK was created by Greek
refugees from Constantinople
in the years following the Greco-Turkish War
and subsequent population exchange
, the emblem and colours were chosen as a reminder of lost homelands; they represent the club's historical ties to Constantinople
.
Its usage also survived as a decorative element in the Greek Orthodox Church
, which was the inheritor of the Byzantine legacy during the Ottoman Empire, while it remained a popular symbol among Greeks. In modern Greece various variations of the two-headed eagles are used in Church flags (based on Byzantine flag patterns and heraldic emblems
) and, officially, by the Greek Army; the bird found its way into the Greek coat of arms for a brief period in 1925–1926.
