New Directions in Cypriot Archaeology highlights current scholarship that employs a range of new techniques, methods, and theoretical approaches to questions related to the archaeology of the prehistoric and protohistoric periods on the island of Cyprus. From revolutions in radiocarbon dating, to the compositional analysis of ceramic remains, to the digital applications used to study landscape histories at broad scales, to rethinking human-environment/climate interrelationships, the last few decades of research on Cyprus invite inquiry into the implications of these novel archaeological methods for the field and its future directions. This edited volume gathers together a new generation of scholars who offer a revealing exploration of these insights as well as challenges to big questions in Cypriot archaeology, such as the rise of social complexity, urban settlement histories, and changes in culture and identity. These enduring topics provide the foundation for investigating the benefits and challenges of twenty-first-century methods and conceptual frameworks. Divided into three main sections related to critical chronological transitions, from earliest prehistory to the development of autonomous kingdoms during the Iron Age, each contribution exposes and engages with a different advance in studies of material culture, absolute dating, paleoenvironmental analysis, and spatial studies using geographic information systems. From rethinking the chronological transitions of the Early Bronze Age, to exploring regional craft production regimes of the Middle and Late Bronze Ages, to locating Iron Age cemeteries through archival topographic maps, these exciting and pioneering authors provide innovative ways of thinking about Cypriot archaeology and its relationship to the wider discipline.

The first comprehensive archaeological catalogue of all the inscriptions written in the un-deciphered syllabary of Late Bronze Age Cyprus (1500-1200 BC): Cypro-Minoan script. Each object is analysed, illustrated, and accompanied by a detailed commentary on the context of recovery and typological characteristics with full bibliographical references.
The aim of this volume is to measure acceptance of, and resistance to, outside influences within Mediterranean coastal settlements and their immediate hinterlands, with a particular focus on the processes not reflecting simple commercial routes, but taking place at an intercultural level, in situations of developed connectedness.
This volume explores the myriad ways in which pottery was created, utilized, and experienced in the prehistoric Aegean, across a period of more than 4000 years between the Middle Neolithic and the Early Iron Age transition.
"The aim of this study is to give as complete a picture of the Middle and Late Bronze Age site at Klavdhia-Tremithos as possible. The site was excavated in 1899 by the British Museum, under the direction of F.B. Welch. Only tombs were excavated and, except for the finds, we have only a very brief report and a sketch, attached to a letter from Welch to M.S. Murray at the British Museum dated Athens 16th June 1899. The finds from the excavation were divided between the British Museum and the Cyprus Museum, Nicosia. Contents include: Introduction, Catalogue, Studies of the Finds, Chronology of the Tombs, Kladhia-Tremithos in its setting, Summary, Bibliography, Concordance of Museum inventory numbers and catalogue numbers, Appendices and Plates."
Dans le cadre du renouveau que connaissent les études sur Chypre à l'âge du Fer, ce volume apporte une réfl exion sur le thème des continuités, ruptures et changements qui accompagnent l'histoire des royaumes chypriotes du Ier millénaire avant notre ère. On y examine les évolutions politiques, en insistant sur le passage d'un mode de gouvernement à un autre ; les transitions culturelles, avec la création de la koinè pan-chypriote d'époque géométrique, la naissance des styles régionaux ou encore l'impact de l'hellénisme ; les modifi cations ou la continuité des structures économiques, avec les dynamiques d'exploitation du territoire et leurs conséquences sur l'évolution des limites territoriales des royaumes chypriotes. Sans nier ou diminuer la radicalité et l'importance de certains phénomènes ou événements - de l'hellénisation de l'île à sa conquête par les Lagides, en passant par l'enracinement de la présence phénicienne à l'époque archaïque et la grandissante infl uence athénienne pendant l'époque classique -, on en réévalue l'impact à la lumière d'autres facteurs essentiels, parfois moins visibles et plus diffi ciles à saisir en raison du biais de la documentation disponible. La perspective « chyprocentrique » paraît ainsi celle qui permet le mieux de refonder, sur de nouvelles bases méthodologiques et théoriques, l'analyse de l'histoire et des caractéristiques constitutives des royaumes chypriotes. Archéologues, épigraphistes, numismates, historiens, céramologues, spécialistes de tout horizon scientifi que apportent ainsi leur regard, soit par l'étude de cas ciblés, dont plusieurs découvertes récentes, soit en dégageant des caractéristiques communes à l'ensemble des royaumes. Within the context of a revival in studies on Iron Age Cyprus, this volume considers the theme of continuity, ruptures and changes that go hand in hand with the history of the Cypriot kingdoms of the first millennium BC. We examine political developments, emphasizing the transition from one mode of government to another; cultural evolutions, with the creation of pan-Cypriot koine from the geometric period, the birth of regional styles or the impact of Hellenism; the changes or continuity of the economic structures, with the dynamics of exploitation of the territory and their consequences on the evolution of the territorial frontiers of the Cypriot kingdoms. Without denying or diminishing the radicalness and importance of certain phenomena or events - from the Hellenization of the island to its conquest by the Lagids, to the rooting of the Phoenician presence in the archaic period and the growing Athenian influence during the classical era - the impact of these events is re-evaluated in the light of other essential factors, sometimes less visible and more difficult to grasp because of the bias of the available documentation. The "chyprocentric" perspective thus appears to be the best one through which to reconstruct, using new methodological and theoretical foundations, the analysis of the history and constitutive characteristics of the Cypriot kingdoms. Archaeologists, epigraphists, numismatists, historians, ceramologists, specialists from all scientific horizons thus shed light on this subject, either through the study of targeted cases, including several recent discoveries, or through highlighting characteristics common to all the kingdoms.
