Ancient Cyprus during the Bronze and Early Iron Age

Күн бұрын

In this video, we take a quick look at the history of the Mediterranean island of Cyprus during the Bronze and early Iron Age. Cyprus was prized for its seemingly abundant copper reserves, which made control of its supply of the metal an objective for many of its neighbors. This video will give you an overview of how Cyprus developed as well as its early history.

In greek mythology when the Trojan war ended, Tefkros went back to his home at Salamis (the island near athens) and his father Telamon exiled him because he didnt bring his brother back alive (Ajax). So Tefkros went at Cyprus and founded the city of salamis !

“the name Cyprus is derived from the Latin word for copper, cuprum.” Pretty sure it’s from the ancient Greek “Κύπρος” of uncertain origin, though some scholars do believe it’s derived from a Sumerian word for copper. Even if that’s the case, the etymology does predate Latin by a smidge.

Hi, thanks for stopping by! You're probably right... I was reading (and I think someone also said in the comments) that the word for copper in Latin means "metal from Cyprus" ...

[Κύπρις] ἐπίθετον Ἀφροδίτης. Κύπρος ἀπὸ τοῦ τὸ κύειν πορίσκειν, ὅ ἐστιν ἐκ τῆς συνουσίας. Its from κύω( bloating as Aprotide came from the waves= κύματα 🌊 which they are the bloat in way of the sea and she is the god of the island) + πορίζω (made/ carry) = the power of birth blessed by Afrodite to be capable due sex. Today in neo-greek language we say έγκυος ( εν+κύω) for the pregnant woman. Then from that the verb κυπρίζω was made which means blossom/flowering / rise like a flower from the ground. From that allegorically the Latins made the word cuprum. Dictionary of Appolonius the Sofist "dictionary in words from Odyssey and Iliad".

@@HistorywithCy Could always do a video on the Nuragic civilization in Sardinia. That'd be cool since it seems like every video about the Nuragic civilization on youtube is about giants and the nephelime. It'd be neat to have one that dealt with actual history instead of woowoo giant stuff. If you're daring, you could look into the fascinating cyclopean citadels in Italy. I say daring since you'd be in speculation land. There's not much known about who built them or when. The Romans believed that an ancient king, possibly Saturn himself built them long before their time. I believe that they represent an unrecorded civilization from the late bronze age in Italy that traded with the Mycenaeans. Some cool locations are the Acropolis of Alatri, Veroli, and Arpino.

In Greek Mythology, Agapenor was the leader of the Arcadians in the Troyan War. It’s said that after the capture of the city, on their sail home, a storm brought the fleet to Cyprus, where they founded the city of Paphos. Shockingly, as a proof of this mythological story retold by Pausanias, modern day linguistic analysis shows an Arcadocypriot Dialect of Greek. That was spoken in the classical period only by the Arcadians and Cypriots.

Nice video, really waiting for a more in-depth documentaries about the Levant societies of the bronze age. It's interesting to note how scholars define the language as cyprio-minoan, makes me think if there is some hypothesis or theories about a minoan diaspora on cyprus and ugarit after the takeover of Minos by the Myceneans. As we see in the case of the Amorrites warlords becoming dominant in mesopotamia could minoan traders become increasingly important in Cyprus and Ugaritic societies by their own achievements as they were assimilated?

@HistorywithCy 4 жыл бұрын

I definitely want to go further into this, but I'll probably do it in podcast form. What you've stated is really interesting and unfortunately I don't know the answer to it. It seems though that Ugarit was pretty much destroyed and abandoned around the time time of the Sea Peoples/Bronze Age collapse, so if the Minoans did go there, evidence of it may have been destroyed along with the city. If i find anything on the subject, I'll let you know. Thanks for stopping by, I really appreciate it!

Isn't it the other way round - cuprum is a derivative of Cyprus?

@HistorywithCy 4 жыл бұрын

Hmmm... so one of the sources I used was The Cambridge Prehistory of the Bronze and Iron Age Mediterranean which stated the following - "Eventually, the intensified production and trade of copper catapulted Cyprus into the role of the most important purveyor of this metal in the Mediterranean region, a situation that continued at least until the fall of the Roman Empire, some two thousand years later. The name Cyprus, after all, is directly related to the Latin word for copper-cuprum." I interpreted that to mean that the name of the island was derived from cuprum but I could be wrong. When I looked online to see if there was anther explanation I came to the wikipedia article on Cyprus that states "Through overseas trade, the island has given its name to the Classical Latin word for copper through the phrase aes Cyprium, "metal of Cyprus", later shortened to Cuprum" which is what you basically said and also makes sense. I'll see if I can find some more info on verify these. I appreciate your comment... stuff like this that challenges what I think I may know keeps me delving deeper... thanks!

3 fun facts about the Bronze age period in Cypriot history: 1. The Talant was the first form of currency as copper was so abundant... imagine...1 meter long piece of copper as currency, it was even featured on the collective coin of 10 years of the euro in Cyprus 2. Over its entire Copper-producing history, Cyprus cut down,if I remember correctly, a hundred times its size in forests 3. Copper was so abundant, the time period in our history books is not called the bronze age, rather the copper age (also because we don't really have a name in Greek for Bronze that also sounds cool)
