Cyprus 1927–1931: other places and views
311 field photographs · 1927–31
Sites: Tamassos, Politiko-Lambertis
This series holds 311 photographs kept with the expedition's archive that could not be assigned to a site or region: the remainder after the excavation, people and regional series were set apart. The main groups are as follows.

Village life and crafts: photographs numbered with the prefix JL and credited to John Lindros, the expedition's architect, who did its photographic recording; several are from Lazania in 1930. They show houses, handicrafts, potters and a farmer ploughing with draught animals. Monuments: churches and medieval buildings captioned "Cypriot Medieval", and about 25 photographs of built tombs with stone chambers, stairs and graffiti, whose place the record does not give. Tamassos and Politiko-Lambertis appear once or twice. Copy photographs: thirteen are copies of older prints.
The record also files about 65 photographs from North Africa in this archive, a few of them from Carthage, under the heading it gives the expedition's finds ("finds from the Swedish Cyprus Expedition"). They are shown here as the museum keeps them.
To find photographs of a particular place, use the explorer, which filters by site, by kind of photograph and by the holder's folder, or start from the site series: Enkomi, Kition, the Karpas and the others listed on the collection page.
