EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Antiquities from Cyprus, Ornaments and Lamp recently found at Larnaca" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the world of archaeology and ancient treasures. The print showcases a collection of remarkable artifacts discovered in Larnaca, Cyprus. The upper part of the engraving features an array of intriguing objects including a papyrus sceptre amulet, a lion figurine, and a crown pschent. These relics are adorned with symbols such as the mystical Eye of Horus, emblematic of protection and power. The god Khnum is also depicted alongside the emblems of Osiris and Horus. The lower portion reveals various ornate ornaments featuring sacred bulls, monkeys, hares, and rams. These intricate designs highlight the rich artistic traditions prevalent in ancient Cypriot culture. The inclusion of monkeys adds an element of curiosity to this composition. Monkeys were often associated with playfulness and mischief in mythology; their presence here may hint at deeper symbolic meanings or simply reflect the fascination with exotic animals during that era. Overall, this engraving provides us with a visual record of significant archaeological discoveries from Cyprus while showcasing both naturalistic depictions and mythical symbolism. It serves as a testament to our enduring fascination with antiquities and our desire to uncover glimpses into civilizations long past.
