The Cypriot Collection of the National Archaeological Museum comprises
about 850 artefacts, of which several were donated by various collectors
in the late 19th and early 20th century, while others, formerly
illegally owned, are the product of recent confiscations. The Collection
has a wealth of sculptures, pottery and terracottas, covering virtually
the entire spectrum of Cypriot archaeology from the early bronze age
(ca 2500 B.C.) to Roman times (4th century A.D.). The chapter on the
history of the Collection was contributed by the Director of the
National Archaeological Museum, Dr. Nikolaos Kaltsas.
