Sotira Kaminoudhia : An Early Bronze Age Site in Cyprus, Hardback Book

Sotira Kaminoudhia : An Early Bronze Age Site in Cyprus Hardback

Edited by Stuart Swiny, George Rapp, Ellen Herscher

Part of the Archaeological Reports series

Hardback

Description

Includes 102 figures, 136 plates and 17 tables (b/w). The excavations at Sotira Kaminoudhia in southern Cyprus revealed the remains of tombs and an Early Bronze Age settlement.

This is the first Early Bronze Age settlement to be excavated in Cyprus, an era previously known only from mortuary deposits.

This volume provides a final report on the excavations and includes specialist studies on various artifact groups, including: ceramics, chipped and ground stone, metals and terracottas.

Other chapters focus on the skeletal remains, local flora and fauna, the geology, the environment, and a regional archaeological survey.

This important report provides a wealth of new material from the southern part of the island, material that may now be compared with finds from the contemporaneous site of Marki Alonia in the centre of the island.
