Biography

Theodoros Adam in the early 20th century

Theodoros Adam (Greek: Θεόδωρος Αδάμ) was a Greek chieftain of the Macedonian Struggle

Biography

The Macedonian chieftains Theodoros Adam, Georgios Kouris and others from their group, 1908-1909.

Adam was born in the late 19th century in Nižepole, then part of the Ottoman Empire (now in North Macedonia). He organized the National Committee of his hometown, Nižepole very early (before 1903) and set up an armed group headed by himself. Its purpose was to face Bulgarian armed action in the areas of Pelagonia and Florina until 1904, when officers arrived from the Greek state.

Later, his group cooperated in many operations with the Cretan officer Ioannis Karavitis until 1907. In 1908, his group, consisting mainly of Nižepole locals, under the general instructions of the Cretan Panagiotis Gerogiannis, dealt with multiple Bulgarian armed groups.

His actions continued until the First Balkan War in 1912 and after the Young Turk Revolution, as Bulgarian armed groups continued to terrorize the Pelagonia area.
