From Latin ARS, technical means and / or ability, in Greece, there was the word art, but "Tekne", which originated from the word "technical."

Results: 2,374 students from nine sampled selected public schools were examined. The prevalence of follicular inflammatory trachoma (TF) was 3.1% (IC 95%: 2.4-3.9), varying from 0.5% to 4.2% in the examined schools. The prevalence for males was 3.2% and for females was 3.0%. The greater prevalence (8.6%) was found in 6 year-old children. Conclusion: The disease showed a mild behavior in this city, because no cases of intense inflammatory trachoma or cicatricial trachoma were detected.
