Archaeological Museum

TIME : 2016/2/18 17:27:54

This museum includes an extensive collection of pottery, and a selection of items dating from neolithic and Chalcolithic times (primarily shards and implements for domestic use) through to Mycenaean pottery. A multitude of terracotta figures on show are thought to be the remains of votive offerings. There is a display of classical pottery, jewellery and oil lamps, as well as curiously modern-looking glass bottles and vials. Although it pales in comparison to Nicosia’s Cyprus Museum, it’s well worth a browse.
