Paphos Ethnographic Museum
All Mod Cons
There are toilets on site too, and I am happy to report that they weren't traditional in design.
Kitchen Area
We are now walking back down the corridor, looking at rooms on the left. This is a kitchen.
The Eternal Spoon Dilemma
The device you can see by the door is there to catch escaping spoons before they can flee the kitchen area. It is quite effective, judging by this scene.
Bowled Over
There is also an area set aside for ceramics.
Pottery
I liked the pottery collection too. I didn't see any Codd Bottles though. These are the marble-stoppered bottles you will occasionally see on a shelf of a country pub in the UK. I used to dig them up as a kid, and later collected them via eBay and Fairs. So I was wondering if they ever made their way over to Cyprus, given that British Rule started in 1878 and the Codd Bottle was in its prime at the start of the 20th Century. I have seen one picture of a Larnaca labelled Codd, but that is it.

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.
