Textile Fragment from a Well in the Nea Paphos Agora

Abstract

During the 2014 season a late Hellenistic well was explored as part of the excavations on the Nea Paphos Agora. Many special finds, including ceramic vessels, iron and bronze items, and lamps were found. Moreover, on the bottom of the well a piece of textile attached to metal application was discovered. In our paper, we would like to present preliminary examination of that artefact, which is very uncommon considering the rarity of such remains in Cyprus.
