ΠΑΦΟΣ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΚΥΠΡΟΣ
Paphos has been inhabited since the Neolithic period. It was a centre of the cult of Aphrodite and of pre-Hellenic fertility deities. Aphrodite's legendary birthplace was on this island, where her temple was erected by the Myceneans in the 12th century B.C. The remains of villas, palaces, theatres, fortresses and tombs mean that the site is of exceptional architectural and historic value. The mosaics of Nea Paphos are among the most beautiful in the world.
ΧΟΙΡΟΚΟΙΤΙΑ (Χωριό) ΚΥΠΡΟΣ
In the prehistoric period, Cyprus played a key role in the transmission
of culture from the Near East to the European world.
Choirokhoitia is an exceptionally well preserved archaeological site
that has provided, and will continue to provide, scientific data of great importance
relating to the spread of civilization from Asia to the Mediterranean world.
Both the excavated remains and the untouched part of Choirokhoitia
demonstrate clearly the origins of proto-urban settlement in the Mediterranean
region and beyond.
The Neolithic settlement of Choirokoitia, occupied from the 7th to
the 4th millennium B.C., is one of the most important prehistoric sites in the
eastern Mediterranean. Its remains and the finds from the excavations there have
thrown much light on the evolution of human society in this key region. Since
only part of the site has been excavated, it forms an exceptional archaeological
reserve for future study.
