Summary
A selection of cooking ware pottery, primarily dating to the early Roman period and predominantly produced on Cyprus, was excavated from the fill under the main courtyard of the 'Hellenistic' House at Nea Paphos–Maloutena during seasons 2014 and 2016. The study reveals that while Cypriot production dominated, imports were also present, originating from the Aegean, Italy, the Levant, and Egypt. This suggests a diverse trade network and cultural exchange in the region during this period. The research approach involved detailed excavation and analysis of pottery fragments, providing insights into the material culture and economic interactions of Nea Paphos during the early Roman era.
