Four weeks of excavations on Yeronisos, the tiny islet off Paphos, have just been completed with a focus on a large complex for food preparation, distribution and storage facilities built along the southern edge of the island
A large complex used for food preparation, distribution and storage facilities plus an “intriguing device” for keeping track of the 30-day lunar calendar were investigated during the latest excavations in the islet of Yeronisos off Paphos.
The complex was built along the southern edge of the island during the final years of Ptolemaic-Egyptian rule on Cyprus, the antiquities department said.
