KOURION ARCHAEOLOGICAL MUSEUM

This small national museum (Τοπικό Αρχαιολογικό Μουσείο Κουρίου/Topiko Archaiologiko Mousio Kouriou) is housed in the Cypriot part of Episkopi, within the former villa of American archaeologist George McFadden (1907-1953). Most of the objects on display come from the sanctuary of Apollo Hylates: statues, offerings, etc. Of particular interest are the three tangled skeletons of the inhabitants of Kourion, buried alive during an earthquake in the ^4th century.
