- Cyprus: Department of Antiquities, 1970. Price not stated. A previous volume was devoted to the splendours of the Royal Tombs at Salamis; here Dr. Karageorghis now presents a cemetery of ordinary Salaminian citizens, continuously in use from REVIEWS 307 the seventh until the end of the fourth century B.C.
- BULLOUGH A History of Cyprus^ Vol. IV. The Ottoman Province. The British Colony iyji—1948. By the late Sir GEORGE HILL: edited by Sir HARRY LUKE. 9X5f. Pp. xxxi+640. Frontispiece -j- 16 pis. Cambridge: at the University Press, 1952. 70^. Sir George Hill had completed before his death the manuscript of the fourth and final volume of his History of Cyprus. The story is carried down to the dissolution of the Consultative Assembly in August 1948. Nowhere is there any suggestion of weakening powers.
- Crouwel (Report of the Department of Antiquities, Cyprus 1987,115) has actually said on this topic. While Reyes knows Cyprus directly, this is not a 'hands-on' account; there is no attempt to convey the feel of the island, or its Archaic topography. This much is clear in the numerous minor errata of location and orthography on map 1, 'Cyprus', some of which reappear on the distribution maps, pp. 104-19.
- Pp- x ' v + 4 I O + 35 P' s - Nicosia: Dept. of Antiquities Cyprus, and Zavallis Press, 1973. Price not stated. It must have been a very interesting symposium. The publication, admirably prompt and fittingly dedicated to the memory of Porphyrios Dikaios, is like a lucky dip; whatever you pull out will be worth taking home. It is reasonable to suppose that the Mycenaeans, in their eastern outposts, may be able to throw some light on the dark places of their homeland.
- Reprinted from the Report of the Department of Antiquities, Cyprus, 1936, Part 1. Nicosia: Government Printing Office. 1938. 9^ (yd. Neolithic Cyprus is a comparatively new discovery, and Dr. Dikaios has become the chief pioneer in its exploration. His own preliminary reports, together with accounts by Dr.
- It provides a taste of the rich Cypriot collections at the British Museum and marks the huge contribution made by Tatton-Brown to our knowledge of the archaeology of Cyprus.
- This is not romance, however tempting the exotic nature of the theme, but a singularly lucid exposition of what is known about medieval Cyprus.
- The balance of the book, here and elsewhere, is somewhat awry, with the authors devoting five pages to the Cyprus silver plates, Constantinopolitan works which shed little light on the artistic output of Cyprus covered in the book, but only devoting a page and a half of text to the highly important mosaics of Kiti.
- The Studies consist of a series of independent volumes variously devoted to historical, archaeo- logical, and art historical topics, and the present volume is No. 14, the first to be devoted to a monument on the island of Cyprus, where Dumbarton Oaks has carried out a considerable programme of field research and conservation work on Byzantine monuments. The early mosaics of Cyprus were noted at the end of the nineteenth century by the Russian scholars Smirnov and Smit.
- It is broadly true that hitherto all scientific exploration in Cyprus has been concentrated on the tombs.
- In comparison with our knowledge of relations between Cyprus and Greece during the Iron Age, our appreciation of Cypriot links with nearby Phoenicia has remained sketchy. Hampered by a scarcity of diagnostic archaeological material from Phoenicia itself, any assessment of acknowledged Phoenician expansion into Cyprus is fraught with difficulties and consequently it has relied heavily on later literary evidence.
- The evidence of Tal Sheikh Yusuf is quite consistent with this in so far as it shows that the pottery of the mainland and of Cyprus is in many cases scarcely distinguishable, and the similarity of products is a strong argument for the relation of the makers; but here, as in Cyprus, the ware is not properly speaking at home; it makes its appearance suddenly and has no history of local development behind it.

- Seven weeks were spent in ground-checking archaeological sites noticed on air photographs taken by the Royal Air Force over Greece and Rhodes during the Second World War, and later in Cyprus. 1 Assisted by my wife, I was able in these few weeks to locate and to examine in detail a large number of archaeological features, as the consequence of having these photographs as a guide.
