Dates from late 6th century to early 5th century BCC, from Cyprus. After domination by the Assyrians and Egyptians, Cyprus functioned as relatively independent city-kingdoms under the Persians until the late-fourth century BCE saw the overthrow of the Persian Empire by Alexander the Great. Greek and Phoenician influences were already strong, but most native Cypriot sculpted figures represented the votary rather than the deity.
