I love Cypriot archeology, specifically late Bronze Age and early Iron Age, this is my favorite Jug and I have spent countless hours staring at it.
Do you own it?
How do you legally own it? I thought it is illegal to own such thing. My grandfather had something similar and we donated it to a museum. It feels better to know that the historical artifacts are public to anyone to see it. It is really sad that back in the day people sold these to foreign countries and not care about them. If you visit Cyprus Museum you can see many artifacts with who donated them.
Do you have a permit from the department of antiquities?
Looks fantadtic! Do you have a more precise dating for the jug?
