The appearance of the Pastoral Style in relation to the Mycenaean Pictorial Style with reference to the case of some kraters from Pyla-Kokkinokremos. Ägypten und Levante|Ägypten und Levante XXXI 31|
No full textThe Pastoral Style, which appeared in Cyprus during the LCIIC, is analyzed in this paper. The discussion centers on the pottery material from Pyla-Kokkinokremos, where several examples of Pastoral Style kraters were found. Imported Mycenaean pictorial kraters, discovered at Pyla-Kokkinokremos, are also stylistically and chronologically analyzed in order to clarify their chronological connection to the former, as well as the causative relationship between them. Emphasis is given to the chronology of the Pyla-Kokkinokremos settlement and the well-dated pottery in the kraters’ contexts. The majority of the vessels presented in this article come from recently excavated contexts. Some have been described in a preliminary form elsewhere, while others have never been published. Fragments found in older excavations are also mentioned and given in a few cases to supplement the newly excavated examples. The following chronological analysis of the pottery is based on comparanda from other closed stratigraphic contexts. Parallels from unstratified contexts are solely used for stylistic comparison to the Pyla vessels
