This study, as a preliminary introduction to the results of the Kouris Valley has been addressed to investigate the development trends within the settlement system of the Kouris valley in the Middle Cypriot (MC) to Late Cypriot (LC) period. A cross-analysis has been outlined, based on two linked research steps: the first one focusing upon the topographical evidence (the localization and inter-relation among the identified sites); the second, upon the technological and typological features related to the pottery production in the area. The summing up of the cross results within a larger framework has been useful to suggest a development in function and use of the sites within the chronological range of interest.

Abstract
This study, as a preliminary introduction to the results of the Kouris Valley has been addressed to investigate the development trends within the settlement system of the Kouris valley in the Middle Cypriot (MC) to Late Cypriot (LC) period. A cross-analysis has been outlined, based on two linked research steps: the first one focusing upon the topographical evidence (the localization and inter-relation among the identified sites); the second, upon the technological and typological features related to the pottery production in the area. The summing up of the cross results within a larger framework has been useful to suggest a development in function and use of the sites within the chronological range of interest.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
