It might also be important to comment on the background
of the Uvanos family. Both Stavros
Niarchos and Aristotle Onassis married Uvanos girls.
The Uvanos family was a prominent family on the Turkish island of Chios. The island of Chios had a
type of tree, mastic trees that produced an early form of chewing gum. From the word mastic is where
we get the word masticate. Chios was the privnte property of the sultan and it was where he kept his
harem. The island was given special royal treatment and allowed to have it full of chewing gum, and
"booze and broads". The Uvanos family was one of the leading families on this island.
