The Statues of Ancient Cyprus

Kourion Museum Cyprus Collection

Statues, defined as any form intentionally designed to look like a specific figure - be it an animal, boat, human or other, have been made in Cyprus for thousands of years.

Statues, beyond their artistic beauty, tell us much of the peoples who made them.

Cypriot statues fall into rather distinct groupings, barring some odd outliers. We discuss these groupings and list them here in chronological order.
