The way I write Cypriot is to facilitate its use and appreciation by Cypriots outside Cyprus, by Cypriots not educated in Greek and indeed by non-Cypriots, to do justice to a number of age-old characteristics of Cypriot pronunciation and to present it as an elegant language worthy of serious expression of thought.

Cyprus gained independence around 669/663. Cemeteries of this period are chiefly rock-cut tombs. They have been found, among others, at Tamassos, Soloi, Patriki and Trachonas. The rock-cut 'Royal' tombs at Tamassos, built ca. 600 BC imitate wooden houses. The pillars show Phoenician influence. Some graves contain remains of horses and chariots.


If Cyprus gained Independence back in 669 as the above article suggest then it need to be treated like any other country in the world with own ethnicity not a Banana Dependent country .


Does the article have an author one can take seriously? Otherwise the discussion is pointless, don't you think?


try find the article in wapedia.mobi/en/ Ancient_history_of_cyprus I can post the whole article later If you want just I posted a summary to prove my point.


Yeap, I googled the excerpt to wapedia.mobi and a load of other sites as well. The question is, who is the author of the article and is he/she someone to be taken seriously. There is no reason to base any discussion on cyberspace garbage. Just because someone posted something on a website doesn't make the text authoritative now does it?

Not sure attention should be paid to the contribution of collaborators in this section. What credibility do they have? And how can we be sure their role here isn't to sell Cyprus to foreigners?

Read but have an open mind . I dont say to take anything. If its rational , gives logical explantion and is not rejected by findings or events then that what is relevant > Excluding artciles because they have not come from our own sources we limit our selves only to what we know already! An information is disputed as long as it can be rejected by facts or evidences .
