Vassos Karageorghis

Biography

Between 1963 and 1973 important private collections of antiquities were formed in Cyprus "with the silent accord of the Department of Antiquities", and the man who wrote those words, Vassos Karageorghis, was the Department's Director for almost all of that decade6. He held the post until 1989, dug Salamis and Kition, pressed foreign missions to publish promptly, and published several of the collections the accord produced1.

He was born on 29 April 1929 at Trikomo, into a rural family of limited means1,32,33. In 1948 the Cyprus Government offered a scholarship to read Classics at a British university, with the post of Assistant Curator in the Cyprus Museum promised to whoever took the degree. He won it and read at University College London from 1948 to 1952, training in the field at Verulamium under Mortimer Wheeler1,2. His doctorate was supervised by Martin Robertson1. In 1958 he asked J. R. B. Stewart to publish his thesis on Mycenaean pottery found in Cyprus, a typescript of about 300 pages, after Peter Megaw had declined it; Stewart's team edited it8.

The Department and the foreign missions

He returned in 1952 as Assistant Curator, worked at Salamis, became Curator in 1960 and succeeded Porphyrios Dikaios as Director of Antiquities at the age of 341. Catling and Summerer date the appointment to 1963; Rystedt gives 1964, and counts 25 years in the post1,2,7. He excavated Salamis until 1974, Kition in main seasons from 1974 to 1981 (paid for from funds reserved for the occupied north) and Maa-Palaeokastro from 1979 to 19862,7.

As Director he welcomed foreign missions from Australia, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Britain, Greece, Israel, Italy, Poland, Sweden and the United States, and required prompt publication; a permit could be terminated if it did not come1,2. In 1963 he revived the Department's annual journal, and from 1958 to 1988 the Bulletin de correspondance hellénique printed his yearly Chronique des fouilles et découvertes archéologiques à Chypre1,9. After the invasion of 1974 put Salamis, Enkomi and his native Trikomo in the occupied zone, he moved foreign missions to the south and west and proposed that the French School excavate Amathus, through Pierre Amandry1,9.

Powell reports that around 1958 or 1959 Stewart asked Karageorghis to buy for him, for up to about a hundred pounds, whatever the Cyprus Museum did not want from the looted tombs at Dhenia, and that a few years later Stewart gloated that Karageorghis had "rolled over" in the division of finds from Karmi, which sent more than seventy packing cases to Australia8. These are Stewart's words as Powell gives them.

Latife Summerer writes that he blacklisted foreign scholars who worked in the north, by letters from 1974 whose method he recorded in his memoirs, and that she was herself blacklisted after 2016. She calls his statement that there were no Turkish-Cypriot archaeologists to cooperate with "paradoxical, if not hypocritical". She also records his proposal in 1989 to Ekrem Akurgal of cooperation on monitoring monuments7.

The silent accord and the collections

In a letter to Antiquity Karageorghis said that the collections formed in 1963–73 had all been registered and photographed item by item, and that the work ended in December 19736. The preface to the Severis catalogue says that the Department, with the agreement of the Ministry of Communications and Works, let Cypriots with access to the Turkish enclaves buy the "spoils" so that they stayed in the country, that owners were asked to declare their collections in the last six months of 1973, and that the main collections were those of Christakis Hadjiprodromou, the Pierides family and the Severis family4.

He published the collections himself. Corpus Vasorum Antiquorum, Cyprus 2 (1965) described Mycenaean pottery in six private hands, among them George Giabra Pierides, Zeno D. Pierides of Larnaca, the dealer Petros Kolokasides, George M. Michaelides, N. P. Lanitis and Mrs M. Gaffiero. He wrote that the exact provenance was unknown but the vases had been found in Cyprus21. His Chronique sections headed "Collection Hadjiprodromou, Famagouste" appeared in 1968, 1970 and 197314,15,16. He published part of the Pierides collection in 1973 and signed the preface to its 1985 catalogue as Director and Vice-Chairman of the Pierides Foundation. The preface says that D. Z. Pierides bought in consultation with the Department, recorded provenance where he could, and also bought Chalcolithic and Early Bronze Age pieces on foreign markets after illicit export, and that he gave the collection to the Foundation in June 197422.

Samuel Andrew Hardy names Karageorghis as the director when the collections were formed and the common author of the four catalogues he analyses, and argues that their contents should be assumed illicit. He calls the policy a state-orchestrated violation of the state's own law, and cites Hadjisavvas for the statement that the antiquities "all came from illicit excavations". His figures rest on catalogue entries he coded himself, which are his own argument3. In his preface to the Phylactou catalogue of 2010 Karageorghis wrote that collectors of 1963–74 "have made a positive contribution by preserving within the Island objects which otherwise would have found their way to the illicit market of antiquities abroad", adding: "Not all collectors, however, were scrupulous, as we know"5.

Buying back

In 1990 Karageorghis wrote that the Hadjiprodromou collection of Famagusta, registered in 1973, began to be looted a year after the occupation of the town and that he believed every item had been stolen and exported. Some pieces appeared in a Christie's catalogue of 27 April 1976 and were claimed by the owner, and others were offered by middlemen; pieces restored to Hadjiprodromou were bought from him by the A. G. Leventis Foundation and given to the Cyprus Museum23. The Museum recorded accessions from the collection in 1977 and, including a block of Chalcolithic idols and free-field vases, in 198118,19. In 1992 he described some of these pieces as cases of "blackmail" in which the State bought from intermediaries24.

The Leventis money paid for other recoveries. A Late Bronze Age bronze wheeled stand, found by looters in 1972 in a Turkish village of the Famagusta District and exported after 1974, was refused by the British Museum and the Louvre, which told the Department, and was traced to a dealer near Frankfurt; a Government grant and a sum from Anastasios G. Leventis bought it for the Museum in 1978, the money arriving with the words "Give them what they need"23. In 1992 he wrote that London had been the centre of the Cypriot trade since 1974, supplied through the occupied north, and that the Foundation had recently paid more than 8,000 pounds there for a fish-frieze jug and a Red Polished terracotta spoon24. The Museum itself bought the second Vounous-type sanctuary model from tomb robbers in 197028. The authors of City of Gold write of a "blizzard of purchases and confiscations" of material from Polis by his Department after 196029. In 1984 Dr and Mrs Lyssarides of Nicosia gave the Museum a large part of their registered collection, listed in his Chronique for that year20.

After the Department

He retired as Director in 1989 and in 1992 became the first Professor of Archaeology at the University of Cyprus1. By the early 1990s he sat on the board of the A. G. Leventis Foundation at the invitation of Dino Leventis, overseeing its excavations and the grants that let foreign museums re-display their Cypriot holdings1. A Leventis Gallery of Cypriote Antiquities opened at the British Museum in 1987 and one at the Fitzwilliam Museum in December 199725. From 1997 he was consultant to the Metropolitan Museum for four galleries of the Cesnola collection, about 1,200 objects, opened in April 2000 with a loan from the Cyprus Museum25,26. Answering Ellen Herscher's criticism of Cypriot money for the installation, he wrote that Max Ohnefalsch-Richter had "excavated for profit" and bought from looters26. A Leventis Gallery opened in Copenhagen in May 2002, after a catalogue of its collection in 200127.

His honours included the Légion d'honneur in 1973, an Oxford honorary degree in 1990, the Onassis Prize in 1991 and election to the Academy of Athens in 19921. He had been elected a Fellow of the British Academy in 1973, and in 2016 he was one of the four founding members of the Cyprus Academy of Sciences, Letters and Arts32,33. His memoirs, A Lifetime in the Archaeology of Cyprus, appeared in Stockholm in 200710. He died on 21 December 2021, aged 9212,33.
