Description

Memoir 83
Mitford, Reader in Archaeology in the Univ. of St. Andrews, presents a comprehensive study of all known inscriptions from the ancient city of Kourion on the island of Cyprus. These date from the 7th, perhaps the 8th cent. B.C., through the Classical, Hellenistic, & Imperial Roman periods, to the early Byzantine era. The finds are fully illustrated by photos & line drawings. Tables of syllabic signs include the signaries of Archaic Kourion, the Treasure of Kourion, Classical Kourion, Archaic & Classical Paphos, & the Common Cypriot Signary of the Classical Period. A full bibliography, a concordance of the inscriptions, & plans of archaeological sites are provided, the whole forming a richly annotated & illustrated corpus of Kourion & its environs.
