Description
Atlantis: The Cypriot Empire explores the intriguing idea that Cyprus may have been the island of Atlantis. Ancient texts suggest a Mediterranean empire with its centre in Cyprus, and some writers even claim that Cyprus once ruled all the islands.
The story of Atlantis is rooted in ancient Greek mythology, but it's also closely tied to the history of Cyprus. The book delves into Hebrew texts and other ancient writings to examine the relationship between these two places. By analysing the available evidence, the author aims to reconcile the myth of Atlantis with historical records.
This book offers a fresh perspective on a fascinating topic, shedding light on a period for which very little written accounts survived. With its unique blend of history and mythology, Atlantis: The Cypriot Empire is an engaging read for anyone interested in the ancient world.
