Deleted interpretation

[edit]

I've deleted the italicised conclusion, which runs counter to common sense: "Certain burial customs observed in the "royal tombs" of Salamis relate directly to Homeric rites, such as the sacrifice of horses in honour of the dead and the offering of jars of olive oil. Some scholars have interpreted this phenomenon as the result of influence of the Homeric Epics in Cyprus." The burial customs are considered parallels, not imitations of the literature. Would anyone have published the deleted conjecture?--Wetman 16:05, 24 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Replaced Theater Image

[edit]

I've replaced the theater image, because it was a photo [[1]] of the ampitheatre in Kourion with a right one[[2]] --Lapost (talk) 21:34, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
