The Philia facies and the Interaction Between Cyprus and Cilicia
The Transformations in the Architectural Structures
Abstract
The Philia facies marks the transition between the Late Chalcolithic and the Early Bronze Age in Cyprus (2400-2350/2200 BC). This crucial period witnessed significant changes in architecture, craftsmanship, funerary practices, and the economy, attributed to groups from southern Anatolia, particularly Cilicia. This analysis focuses on the study of architectural remains and planimetric changes, specifically comparing structures from certain Cypriot sites with architectural remains found at some Anatolian sites, with the aim of exploring the Cyprus-Anatolia connection through an innovative approach to architectural evidence.
