The Archaeological Museum in Larnaca has been closed for renovations while we have been in Cyprus. But we were able to walk around outside and examine some artifacts. These storage pots were brought from Kalavasos, a village not far from Larnaca. These pots are from the 13th century B.C. I must admit that I thought it was cool to stand next to storage pots that are over 3,200 years old! Notice how tall they are. I am 5'11" and they are quite a bit taller than me. They were probably used to store grain or other dry goods.
