Abstract

Onomatologos is a term used in later antiquity to describe eminent lexicographers such as Hesychius and Pollux as 'collectors of words', but here it is used as the title for a major volume of papers prepared in honour of Elaine Matthews, recently retired long-serving editor of the Lexicon of Greek Personal Names ( LGPN ): a 'collector of names'. The LGPN , conceived by Peter Fraser, has had as its primary aim the documentation on a geographical basis of the personal names attested between the earliest use of the Greek alphabet (c. 750 BC) and the early seventh century AD throughout the Helleni

Abstract

This lexicon provides scholars and students of Greek civilization with a list, supported by evidence, of personal names known from literature, inscriptions, papyri, vases, coins, and other objects dating from the earliest period to the 7th century A.D. It promises to replace the mid-19th-century work of Pape and Benseler and offer fresh impetus to a wide range of historical and literary research. Produced under the auspices of the British Academy, the complete lexicon will be published in six volumes.

Abstract

Palaepaphos (modern Kouklia) is a major prehistoric site in south-west Cyprus, famous as a cult-place of a deity later identified with Aphrodite. Between 1951 and 1954 the Liverpool City Museum and St Andrews University Expedition to Palaepaphos, directed by J. H. Iliffe and T. B. Mitford, excavated 46 Late Bronze Age tombs in three cemeteries, as well as a number of Late Bronze Age and Early Iron Age tombs at other locations. Two of the cemeteries were comprised mainly of chamber tombs used for secondary interment, while the third consisted of pit graves used for primary burials. These tombs produced nearly 1,120 inventoried finds, including pottery, objects in stone, bronze and silver vessels, bronze and iron weapons, gold jewellery, ivory objects, faience and glass. This book provides the long-awaited publication of this important body of material, described in the catalogues for each tomb and fully illustrated in photographs and drawings.
