Cyprus

The island of Cyprus was first inhabited around 10,000 BCE and unique cultures were developed there. The island, situated some100 km from the coast of Syria, quickly became an important part of the southern Levant. It was highly involved in trade, a major supplier of copper and fine pottery wares. Throughout its history it was dominated  by major powers such as the Hittites, Mycenaean Greece, Assyria, Persia, and many more.
