Damian I (July 10, 1848 – August 14, 1931) wasGreek Orthodox Patriarch of Jerusalem from 1897 to 1931.^[1]

During the patriarchate ofDamian I of Jerusalem, the Greek Orthodox Church expanded its rural land acquisitions in Palestine, including the 1909 purchase of 600dunams south ofCaesarea’s Roman road fromOttoman governor Sadeq Pasha. This acquisition formed part of a wider strategy of establishing agricultural estates in areas of religious and strategic significance, supported by Russian imperial patronage in thelate Ottoman period.^[2]
