Ritual Architecture, Iconography and Practice in the Late Cypriot Bronze Age (Studies in Mediterranean Archaeology Pocket Book, 75)

Soft cover. Zustand: New. 1st Edition. xii, 369 pages : illustrations, map ; 21 cm. THIS VOLUME focuses on the recognition of cult in the context of the Late Cypriot Bronze Age and the characterisation of cult buildings and related paraphernalia. It is concerned with the identification and elucidation of cult places and cult practices based on the existing archaeological record, and the formulation of a series of indicators which allow reasonable inference that a particular site was given over to organised ritual activity. These indicators are drawn from the material record of excavated sites and supplemented by iconographic data. The study is also concerned with an analysis of underlying belief systems and might therefore be characterised as an exercise in both effective applied and cognitive archaeology. Artikel-Nr.
