Devia Cypria (Classic Reprint): Notes of an Archaeological Journey in Cyprus in 1888: Notes of an Archaeological Journey in Cyprus in 1888 (Classic Reprint) - Brossura
Sinossi
Discover Cyprus through an 1888 archaeological journey that maps ruins, voices, and distant shores.
This nonfiction travelogue follows D. G. Hogarth’s summer exploration of Cyprus, focusing on the Papho district and the Carpass. Readers will glimpse how a Craven Travelling Fellowship shaped fieldwork among inscriptions, temples, and ancient ruins. The volume presents a careful blend of site notes, historical context, and Hogarth’s observations on local life and hospitality.
Structured as a practical report rather than a sweeping history, the book offers grounded descriptions of landscapes, excavation progress, and the legacy of Cypriot civilizations. It highlights places like New Paphos, Aphrodisium, and coastal towns as they stood in the late 19th century, with maps and references to earlier scholars.
- Ground-level field notes from Papho and Carpass, with attention to topography and ruins
- Context on ancient sites, inscriptions, and regional history of Cyprus
- Observations on local people, hospitality, and daily life during travel
- Historical references and scholarly citations guiding future explorations
Ideal for readers curious about late‑19th‑century archaeology, Cypriot heritage, and travel journals with scholarly insight.
