Description
Venue: Limassol Archaeological Museum When: Daily; not Sun
Visitors to Limassol's archaeological museum can follow the development of civilisation on the island from the ninth millennium to the late Roman period.
Among the many artefacts on display are pieces from the preneolithic site of Akrotiri, or Aetokremnos, where evidence of the earliest human activity on the island has been found.
Bronze Age Mycenean vases and contemporary artefacts from the necropolis of a monumental building at Alassa are also exhibited, along with Phoenician and Aegean pottery, jewellery, tools, coins, clay idols, stone statuettes and a huge sculpture of the Egyptian fertility God Bes.
