Both studies are forthcoming publications in ANTIQVVS magazine.Alexis Kyriacou, archaeologist and PhD researcher at the University of Reading, will present Sculpture and Identity in Archaic Cyprus (740–475 BC), examining limestone votive figures from across the island. His talk explores how Greek, Phoenician, Egyptian, and native traditions fused to create hybrid forms that reflect Cyprus’ central place in the ancient Mediterranean.Dr Mark Merrony, Editor in Chief of ANTIQVVS magazine and Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries, will focus on the mosaics of Kykkos Monastery, demonstrating how Cypriot art continued to negotiate influences from East and West into the Byzantine and later periods.The evening will include time for audience questions and discussion, followed by a wine and snack reception, offering further opportunities for exchange among academics, students, and enthusiasts of Cypriot history and art.
