Maritime activity was an essential component in the life and culture of the ancient island of Cyprus.
Terracotta boats and ships belonged to a long-standing tradition within ancient Cyprus. Dating as far back as 2500 BC, simple boat figurines were found in sanctuaries and tombs across the island.
Many examples dating to the 4th century BC have been excavated from the Acropolis at Amathus and from neighbouring cemeteries.
