dc.description.abstractArchaeological interest in the Cypriot necropoleis began in the late 19th century and has increased at a growing pace to the present day. As a result,\rthere is a significant quantity of data related to Cypriot\rmortuary behaviour, which is referred to as the “Cypriot\rmortuary horizon” in this paper. However, studies of\rthis so-called horizon have not been holistic, and some\rnecropoleis have been consistently ignored by researchers. The necropolis of Soloi is one of these overlooked\rexamples. This study aims to correct this oversight by\rfocusing on the Cypro-Archaic (750-480 B.C.) necropolis of Soloi. Accordingly, the separately published results\rof the pre-1974 excavations are interpreted together\rwith the unpublished data of the post-1974 rescue excavations. A comparison of the emerging picture with\rcontemporary Cypriote necropoleis shows that Soloi\rwas an essential component in the creation of the Cypriote mortuary horizon. The similarities it displays in\rtomb typologies and inventories, and, most importantly, to certain funerary behaviours identified elsewhere\ron Cyprus enables a better understanding of the panisland mortuary world.
