recounts the rape and plunder of colonialism by the brishish
beautifully and richly presented pictures of marbles ,ceramics,bronzes,mosaics and frescoes looted by the british colonial administration of Cyprus.This important work showcases the overwhelming significance of this little mediterranean island to the heritage of the world through the millenia from neolithic times,early greek and byzantine times and the post byzantine period of foreign domination for most of this millenium.Worth purchasing just for the pictures ...the commentary is mediocre at best.
