| Περίληψη: | The marble statue of Aphrodite we are presenting in the following study originates from the Soloi area, in the northwestern occupied part of the island, and apart from brief references in old publications, is absent from more recent research on the island’s sculpture. The limited number of marble sculptures from Cyprus, as well as the iconographic type of Aphrodite, that of Pudica half‑draped, which does not often appear on the island, has prompted us to study the sculpture and to elevate it in Cypriot archaeological literature. Our aim is also to contribute to the study of the iconography of Aphrodite in Cyprus during the Hellenistic and Roman periods, but equally serves as a reminder that the occupied area of Soloi remains alive in modern research. |
