Empire and excavation
Critical perspectives on archaeology in British-period Cyprus, 1878–1960
2025 || Paperback || Thomas Kiely e.a. || Sidestone Press Academics

This volume explores the mechanisms, the institutions and the characters who contributed to the development of Cypriot archaeology, often within a fraught political environment.

2022 || Paperback || David Fontijn || Sidestone Press Dissertations
