The 17 figurines published here are but a small sample of the objects excavated more than 100 years ago at the Bronze Age necropolis at the site of Ayia Paraskevi in Cyprus. Vassos Karageorghis introduces the volume with an insightful essay on the significance of the site and one of its early excavators, Max Ohnefalsch-Richter. Terence Brennan contributes information on the history of the Museum's acquisition of these pieces based on a 12-year correspondence between Sara Yorke Stevenson, one of the Museum's early founders, and Ohnefalsch-Richter. The volume contains a detailed catalogue of the 17 figurines, including bibliography and comparanda.

This volume, authored by a leading authority in Cypriot archaeology, Professor Emeritus Vassos Karageorghis FBA, and with contributions by other scholars, aspires to make accessible many of the Cypriot artefacts from the collection of the S.O.F.I.A. Foundation in Nicosia, together with a part of the Photos Photiades collection. The book features some 230 pieces illustrated in superb colour photography, which include an impressive array of vases with representative examples of all stylistic tendencies from Late Bronze Age down to Roman times. Together with plastic vases, terracotta figurines, coins and other artifacts in glass, gold, cooper, stone, and bone, the objects in the catalogue testify to the vitality and originality of Cypriot art as well as to its interaction with other cultures.

The Cypriot Collection of the National Archaeological Museum comprises about 850 artefacts, of which several were donated by various collectors in the late 19th and early 20th century, while others, formerly illegally owned, are the product of recent confiscations. The Collection has a wealth of sculptures, pottery and terracottas, covering virtually the entire spectrum of Cypriot archaeology from the early bronze age (ca 2500 B.C.) to Roman times (4th century A.D.). The chapter on the history of the Collection was contributed by the Director of the National Archaeological Museum, Dr. Nikolaos Kaltsas.colour illustrations throughout
