PROVENIENCE STUDIES AND CYPRIOTE SCULPTURE FOUND ABROAD

The focus of this section is on Cypriote sculpture (or ‘Cypriote style sculpture) found abroad. Provenience studies are beginning to draw the attention they deserve (e.g., Jenkins 2000, Höckmann and Kreikenbom 2001 and Kourou 2002) and thus the question of origin for this class of sculpture is constantly being challenged. In this section you will find not only excavation reports from sites outside of Cyprus with significant assemblages of Cypriote sculpture, but also museum catalogues where they are published. You will also find references to materials and methods of sculpture production, including quarries.
