Athanasios Pipis

Athanasios Pipis or Thanas Pipi (died in 1821) was a Greek priest and Greek Orthodox leader who fought in the Greek revolution of 1821.

Life

Pipis was born in the village of Vuno in Himara (Ottoman Empire then, Albania today).[1]

In July 1804, he joined the Himariote and Souliote regiments of the Russian Empire's army.[2] Pipis joined the regiments to support a possible revolt against the Ottoman Empire.[2] In 1821, he joined the forces of Alexander Ypsilantis and took part in an anti-Ottoman uprising in Moldavia and Wallachia.[1][2] During the battle of Dragashani on 7 June 1821, Pipis and his men were killed fighting against Ottoman forces that outnumbered them.[1][2]
