DIVINE ICONOGRAPHY: GODS, GODDESSES, and other CULT IMAGES
I
have sub-divided this section for ease of browsing into several categories.
Beginning with a list of general sources dealing with Cypriote religion, I then
break down the references in terms of the iconography presented by the sculpture
itself. The labeling of ‘divine’ images in Cyprus is wrought with
difficulties (inscriptions only seem to complicate the issue) and I have chosen
accepted names for the various classes. When disagreements occur, I have tried
to list alternate divine names as well (e.g., Zeus-Ammon/Baal Hammon).
There is also a Miscellaneous ‘catch-all’ category which includes a
variety of references not easily pigeon-holed into one of my divisions.
