landsknechte Posted 7 hours ago Posted 7 hours ago I've seen the decoration below described as the Greek Orthodox Order of St. Mark. I'm having very little success tracking info on it down thus far. Anyone know anything about this one? (This example isn't mine, but it's related to a group I'm researching.)
Flávio P.Z.Peixoto Posted 5 hours ago Posted 5 hours ago hi landsknechte In general there is not much information about this Order, all I know about it is that it has existed since at least the beginning of the 20th century and that it is a merit medal of the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Alexandria and all Africa. I found some news of the Patriarch Theodoros II decorating some people with them. https://www.patriarchateofalexandria.com/the-patriarch-of-alexandria-awarded-the-grand-cross-of-the-apostle-mark-to-prime-minister-kyriakos-mitsotakis/?lang=en# https://orthodoxtimes.com/patriarch-of-alexandria-awarded-the-holy-cross-of-the-apostle-and-evangelist-mark-to-john-fourtounas/ 1
