Initial comments

I removed the redirect because this subject deserves separate treatment. Please help expand the article. --Jpbrenna 16:41, 23 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

all I can think to maybe add is a mention of how various cycladic things- frying pans, figurines, etc have been found all over the aegean... Novium 00:54, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

whats the geography?

were other pieces of modern nation states like albania and modern macedonia (fyrom)? could dorians have been a cycladic tribe? 99.164.108.120 (talk) 19:30, 26 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

No. I have personally researched artifacts for endless hours . They show a slow but sure development since the early neolithic period . Scienceandhistorygreat1 (talk) 09:34, 24 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Your personal opinion doesn't count here, I'm afraid. Only reliably published sources. Doug Weller talk 16:03, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Improvements

There should be a section on Cycladic art - a four or five paragraph summary of what is now at Cycladic art, rather than just listing that article in the "See also" section. See WP:SS for details on how this should be done.

There is detailed information in the article History of the Cyclades that belongs in this article (see Talk:History of the Cyclades for details). -- John Broughton (♫♫) 20:16, 2 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Kastri, Syros

Is Kastri the Kastri, Kythera 10:19, 29 June 2014 (UTC)

The article has a red link to Kastri. There is an article of Kastri, Kythera. I am now told that there is a Kastri on Syros. I am not disputing. But, in order to ckear up confusion, shoudld the link to Kastri changed to link to an article Kastri, Syros? 10:19, 29 June 2014 (UTC)

Civilization or Culture?

Your source says its a culture and not a civilization. First source. Met.

Someone please respond. Prophetofreason (talk) 02:16, 13 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

There are several cultures over the periods of the bronze age at the Cyclades. Usually the umbrella term for all of them is civilization. Does that help? --h-stt !? 10:49, 15 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It was a culture because each primitive city was partly isolated and they were not part a united civilization. Scienceandhistorygreat1 (talk) 09:31, 24 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Cycladic civilization → Cycladic culture – "Cycladic culture" appears to be the WP:COMMONNAME Almost 3000 GBook hits[1] vs 1500[2] 287 Google Scholar hits[3] vs 147[4] Dougweller (talk) 13:36, 15 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion

Support. The Google Books and Scholar results show that "Cycladic culture" is the more common term (just like a Google Ngram comparison does).—Neil P. Quinn (talk) 22:20, 16 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support per the WP:COMMONNAME argument above, but note that our treatment of this sort of thing is wildly inconsistent and may need some systematic re-examination. We have Minoan civilization but Celts (yet also Ancient Celtic culture), etc., etc. — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽^ʌⱷ҅_ᴥⱷ^ʌ≼ 21:46, 18 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Add redirect for "Cycladic period"

... please, since it's a synonym for the title. Thanks. Arminden (talk) 07:10, 27 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

A nonsensical sentence

"Naxos has been inhabited since the 4th millennium BC until now unceasingly."
" Could someone please correct it? I don't see any meaning behind it, maybe someone else does?--Adûnâi (talk) 00:24, 19 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

All taken care of... it was almost certainly written by a native Greek speaker who way trying to say: "Naxos has been continuously inhabited since at the fourth millennium BC." –Skoulikomirmigotripa (talk) 19:28, 13 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
