MIKE RANDALL – CYPRUS ARCHAEOLOGY
We welcome back to Live Laugh Love Ladies Club Poundbury Dorchester Mike Randall, a volunteer from the town’s Shire Hall. With his wealth of history knowledge, he will be giving a talk on “Cyprus Archaeology.”
Cyprus is at the gateway of all ancient civilizations including Greek, Phoenician, Egyptian, Roman, Byzantine, Ottoman and British. It is rich in history and archaeology but so much more still lies undiscovered. See photos and images of archaeological excavations in Northern Cyprus and handle ancient artefacts and examine which are genuine and which are fake.
The place where the dig took place is called Lambousa (It means 'shining light' in Greek), and it is the place where the finest silver in the world was uncovered- 'David Plates'. Excavating has taken place there for decades (holiday times when Mike was a headteacher) and focused on early tombs. Digs have also taken place at Salamis, an ancient Greek city state that was founded by Teucer who fought with Odysseus at Troy which is an amazing site.
