The Bronze Age pottery of Cyprus stands well in comparison with modern products - because Cypriot potters were artisans. The products are interesting, have great detail and make the pottery of Cyprus among the most diverse in the ancient world. At "Cyprus Bronze Age", a small family business in the centre of Dikmen, they make replicas of ancient Bronze Age pieces discovered all over the island of Cyprus. Bronze Ages (Early, Middle and Late): 3000 BC - 1750 BC.

Bill, can you change the Subject title like this: [CYPRUS] Free food from the Bronze Age?

That way the thread about Cypriot Turks who do such a nice job may attract more attention...

DC,

You just can't help yourself can you, even spoiling your own threads to have to have a dig. You are making yourself look an utter fool, it's pathetic.

Desktop_commentator_Hattikins (we know that creativity is not your forte): I'm not amazed you joined another thread with another worthless post. I'll keep you busy. And: back to the top is back to the top.

It's getting better and better... And Mrs Hattikins, it's YOU who is always and everywhere telling me and others not to be rude! Look at the pottery in msg 1 and enjoy art - you may calm down.

Hi Hans,



I really enjoyed looking at your pictures and will certainly visit this pottery when I am next out in Cyprus.

I now have a growing list of interesting places to visit thanks to your posts.

RE msg 13, the butlers wife: I know that posts like this one only please very few on this board, but that'll be no reason for me to stop uploading cultural subjects related to Northern Cyprus. Mrs Butler, the list of interesting places will grow longer (almost) every day!
