It is under the ''[[de facto]]'' control of [[Northern Cyprus]]. {{As of|2011}}, the town has a population of 6,597.<ref name="pop" /> ==Etymology== The name ''Karavas'' comes from the [[Greek language|Greek]] ''karávi'' ({{lang|el|καράβι}}), meaning "ship". ==History== {{More citations needed section|date=July 2010}} {{main|Lapathus (Cyprus)}} Prior to the [[Turkish invasion of Cyprus|Turkish invasion in 1974]], Karavas had a Greek population of approximately 2200. Karavas was captured by the [[Turkish Army]] before the second [[Turkish invasion of Cyprus]] after July 20, 1974. The city was attacked on August 6, during the so-called armistice. All [[Greek Cypriot]] inhabitants were forced out of Karavas by Turkish military forces and have become refugees, living in Cyprus and abroad. "Pente Mili" is one of the most beautiful beaches in Karavas. The [[Cyprus Treasure]], an impressive collection of silver vessels, dishes, spoons and jewelry, was found here in 1902 and 1917. It can be found in the [[British Museum]] in [[London]], [[Metropolitan Museum of Art]] in [[New York City]] and the Cyprus Museum in [[Nicosia]]. ==Notable people== Karavas is the ancestral village of the British [[pop singer]] [[George Michael]], and the Cypriot-American [[organic chemist]] [[K. C. Nicolaou]]. ==International relations== {{See also|List of twin towns and sister cities in Northern Cyprus}} ===Twin towns – sister cities=== Karavas is [[Twin towns and sister cities|twinned]] with: *{{flagicon|TUR}} [[Bornova]], İzmir, Turkey (since 2011)<ref name="Bornova">{{citation|url=http://bornova.bel.tr/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=240&Itemid=261&lang=tr|title=''Bornova - Twin Towns''|publisher= Bornova-City.sk|access-date=2013-10-19}}</ref> *{{flagicon|TUR}} [[Gazipaşa]], Antalya, Turkey (since 2015)<ref name="Gazipasa">{{citation|url=http://www.gazipasa.bel.tr/haber-detay.aspx?id=794|title=''Twin Town to Gazipasa from Cyprus''|publisher=Gazipasa Municipality|access-date=2015-06-18|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150618162934/http://www.gazipasa.bel.tr/haber-detay.aspx?id=794|archive-date=2015-06-18|url-status=dead}}</ref> == References == {{Reflist}} {{Kyrenia District}} {{Municipalities of Northern Cyprus}} {{Municipalities of Cyprus}} {{Authority control}} [[Category:Municipalities in Kyrenia District]] [[Category:Populated places in Girne District]] [[Category:Municipalities of Northern Cyprus]]'
