Σε απόθεμα

The importance of Palaepaphos area for the archaeology and history of Cyprus has long been recognized but was often taken for granted in view of the legends connecting it with the birth and cult of Aphrodite. During the last twenty years or so, however, the fame of Palaepaphos has been substantiated by archaeological evidence. Regular excavations by the Swiss-German mission under Professor F. G. Maier, salvage excavations undertaken by the Department of Antiquities and the Canadian mission under Dr. David Rupp, have revealed a wide chronological spectrum in the life of ‘major’ Palaepaphos from the Neolithic to the Mediaeval periods. It is unfortunate that most of the evidence comes from tombs rather than from settlement deposits, but it is hoped that future excavations will remedy this situation.
