Synopsis
Contributing Authors

Ce volume consacre au temple de l’Aphrodite chypriote, construit vers la fin du Ier s. apr. J.-C., fait suite a celui qui a ete publie en 2006 par S. Fourrier et A. Hermary sous le titre Le sanctuaire d’Aphrodite, des origines au debut de l’epoque imperiale (Amathonte VI, Etudes chypriotes XVII). Les sculptures et les figurines en terre cuite avaient ete precedemment etudiees par A. Hermary dans le volume Amathonte V (Etudes chypriotes XV, 2000; voir aussi A. Queyrel dans Amathonte IV, 1988). Le temple a ete presque entierement detruit autour de 600 apr. J.-C. et ses pierres ont ete en grande partie reutilisees pour la construction d’une petite basilique chretienne. L’etude des nombreux blocs trouves au cours d’une quinzaine de campagnes de fouilles et la restitution graphique et numerique du bytiment ont constitue un enjeu majeur de la mission de l’EFA et du MAE a Amathonte, avec le support du Departement des Antiquites de Chypre qui, dans un premier temps, avait entrepris de completer les parties manquantes de la crepis du monument. L’etude a permis de restituer l’essentiel de la structure architecturale de ce temple tetrastyle, caracterisee par ses chapiteaux nabateens etrangers a la tradition grecque qui, avec les colonnes et les pilastres qui les portent, animent les facades plutot austeres. Elle revele aussi le role primordial que tenait a l’epoque imperiale le sanctuaire d’Amathonte, le plus important lieu de culte chypriote de la deesse apres celui de l’Ancienne-Paphos.
