Bronze Age Cemeteries at Deneia in Cyprus

Frankel, David

Oxbow says: The extensive Bronze Age cemeteries at Deneia in north-west Cyprus cover an area of more than six hectares and, despite years of looting, have much to reveal about the period, from the Philis culture to the early Iron Age. The preliminary findings from Frankel and Webb's programme of fieldwork, though temporarily curtailed, are published in this volume. Evidence for the location and distribution of tombs, their physical features and finds are used to provide insights into the date and duration of the tombs, and therefore the use of the cemetery as a whole, as well as other patterns of funerary behaviour. The pottery assemblages are of particular importance, especially the Red Polished wares, which demonstrate links with other sites in the north-west and beyond. 188p, b/w and col figs and pls (Studies in Mediterranean Archaeology vol. CXXXV, Astroms 2007)
