Anogyra Vlou Archaeological Site
Published 26th of August, 2021
Strange Rock
I wonder what this rock was for? It is low in the ground, so even if they have reassembled the site, I imagine that this was pretty much in-situ all along.
Foundation Stone?
It looks like it was used to hold something vertical.
Olive Run
You can imagine a series of these stones channeling the olive oil.
Rubble
You can see more of that rubble I mentioned. Did the whole site look like that at one point?
Hidden Well
This looks like some sort of lid or seal.

We first blogged about the Archaeological Park a couple of years ago. It was a short blog, and focused mainly on the pretty spring flowers. Now we are returning, to give the rest of the park the attention it so richly deserves.

We were out exploring in the Akamas the other day, and we came across this lovely old Olive Tree. I can't help wondering how long it has stood here...

MapAnogyra Vlou Archaeological Site
The countryside of Cyprus is swamped with archaeological sites, though many of them are rightly off-limit to the public. A couple of years ago a forum regular visited Anogyra Vlou, and now that it is also shown on Google Maps, we thought it an opportune time to revisit the location and have a look for ourselves.

eBookCyprus Road Trip 01: the Kathikas - Panagia Loop
Let me take you on a journey around the region of Paphos, Cyprus. Starting at Paphos itself, we travel to Akoursos, then Kathikas, Kritou Terra and Simou. We continue past Lasa and Kannaviou, before taking in the delights of Panagia. Getting a bit more adventurous, we visit the abandoned villages of Statos and Agios Fotios, before passing through Choulou, Letymbou and Polemi, and rejoining the main Paphos - Polis road.
The route is suitable for all types of vehicle, and requires no off-roading. The guide contains about 130 photographs including shots of all the road signs you need to pay attention to, as well as some of the highlights you may experience along the way.
There are also several maps which will help you keep your bearings.
You can do this journey in a day, or you can break it up into chunks. You can also do it in reverse, to get some completely different views. It is entirely up to you.
